I got 43 seconds into that, and he completely mis-defined socialism.
Socialism is nothing more, or less, than the idea that "there will always be poor among us" coupled with protection for the least (the metaphorical widows and orphans). It's nothing more, nor less, than the idea that greed is inherent in humanity, and rich people need a bit of persuading to help poor people.
Pure "market capitalism" says screw that, the alphas win.
