I am familiar with your thinking, and I am also well read on it. Basically, if you remove the genocide of it as I do not detect at this time you would be for that, but you would otherwise make a good Nazi minus the genocidal part. Though I will say, I believe you are naive in this thinking because most people with absolute power turn evil and want more than what they have.

Again, I am not calling you a Nazi yet because we have not discussed it enough and that word is overused, but I am saying your belief fits well with the original NASDAP before Hitler and his crazies went on the killing spree.

National Socialist Germany was a caste system of responsibilities as you state, including being against usury, and for social responsibility. The plumber was honored with the king, but look where that led? All caste systems and systems of slavery are prone to human nature and are evil at their core.

Human nature is self serving on the whole which can be observed with verifiable evidence. If you are a Christian, the Bible states this clearly. Even with a supposed new birth, Christians in a caste system have and will always be at war with their will to self interest and power. How many wars and enslavement of others for personal gain was done by those claiming Christ?

While I agree there can be no equality of outcome in every sense, in my view, in a wealthy society such as ours where a significant amount of the wealth came by birth, likeness, on the backs of the rest of society or just getting to something first there should be a minimum as well as a maximum standard of living. Government at its best should serve the whole equally rather than the few it serves currently.

None should be so far above the rest they feel entitled to special privileges not available to everyone when it comes to food, water, housing, health care, protection from crime, education, etc. We cannot say opportunity has ever been the same either since it has only been sixty years since segregation. That would be asking blacks to catch up from over 300 years of bonding and only being seen as equal in under a hundred.

Just a civil conversation.
