Jean Grey in the words of Walt Whitman, from his masterpiece Leaves of Grass, "Song of Myself" (51 and 52):
"Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself, (I am large, I contain multitudes.)"
"Failing to fetch me at first keep encouraged, Missing me one place search another, I stop somewhere waiting for you."
Aside from the discussion (just want to add that these concepts, socialism , left, right are relative to the part of the world you come from) besides that, anyone else found it a bit out of character Jean thinking anything ...about politics? I don't know, surely Jean fans know better, just my 2 cents.

Krakoa grows its own buildings, so I doubt housing costs anything. Some mutants can probably create vast amounts of food or supplies, so they can help with those areas. (Since work would be a lot easier than anything they could find off Krakoa, I can see mutants accepting the occasional duty.) Everything else is probably covered by the wealthy elite, or come from the hard work of the X-Men.
That said, Krakoa's population is also expanding at an alarming rate. Unless they find more planets, there will probably be competition for limited resources, such as space.
Stasis talked a big game but was taken down in a fistfight. Yikes
Krakoa doesn't have money for internal use. For external use, they just give you bags of money because Xavier and Emma are ridiculously rich.

It basically an eco-socialist commune. People's needs are met quite literally from the trees. People can work or party or do whatever they want to do because all is provided by Krakoa.
Genosha or at least the post-civil war version in contrast was closer to an old school socialist state where the government decided your employment.

Does Club Sinister not know there's another Sinister? His reaction to Cyclops unmasking him suggests he doesn't. That was confusing.
