Replace the word socialism with capitalism and you will be correct.Socialism is always going to benefit a small group at the top of the socialist hierarchy. They are the one's that get to define the common good and their opinion will always be that the common good requires their being enriched at the expense of everyone else. I would be considered a political conservative by most people. I oppose all forms of welfare that do not meet a specific criterion. That being that government largesse should only go to those that are in reality incapable of providing for themselves. Obviously corporate welfare would be the furthest thing from that one can imagine. Where we disagree is that IMO if a corporation provides a service that people desire, that corporation deserves to make whatever the market will bear. So If Nestle bottles water that people are inclined to buy they are not doing anything wrong. I pay my local government to deliver water to me. I would be unreasonable and illogical to expect that government all of that government's employees and all the employees and companies involved with that delivery system to work for free because the water was there already.
