Of course, few things anger wrong-wingers more than the suggestion that genuine Christian principles should be applied to politics.
Well, first Century Christians (and second and Third), held all Things in common, set up the first welfare state (outside of Jewish synagogues), and refused to participate in warfare.
Jesus' mission statement referenced the Jubilee year, i.e. the year of redistribution when all Things became common property.
Also his Brother James, not a big friend of the Rich, neither was Jesus.
