When the Rasul was told that people were raising food prices in the market in Madina during a drought, he replied that he could not control the price all he would do was try to encourage the merchants through preaching to them to not do it.

can you provide a reference and the exact wording of the hadeeth

also, socialism is far more logical and inline with islam than capitalism.

Would you rather have a state owned media, or a privately owned media? Would you rather the state owns the assets of the nations or powerful wealthy unaccountable individuals? Would you rather defence companies have the option of simply moving abroad with all their assets, or would you rather they are state owned?

We dont follow either ideology in totality, but there is a lot of good in socialism that I personally would implement if i was the khalifah.

Can you provide any evidence for your suggested system being better than socialist principles? Also can you provide full details of what you propose as a system?
