Seems like the problem is human nature, specifically greed. In a socialist system to greed leads to corruption, but in a capitalist system, maybe the greed will lead to innovation.
Something to consider is that maybe there is a better way to introduce socialism into markets. For example, as I understand it German companies are required to have stakeholders on their boards, an employee representative and a local industry or environmental representative for example. Perhaps the goal should be to try new things to make things better, not feel constrained to choose between tried options that all have shortcomings.
