Was Louis XIV a socialist?

Sargon of Akkad was clearly the first ever socialist.

The planned temple economies of Uruk and other cities were there much earlier.

Conversely Emperor Nero, who fiddled while Rome burned, was definitely the first libertarian. Those romans with burning houses shouldn't have expected government handouts and pulled themselves up via bootstraps!

Actually, the people of Rome loved Nero because he sponsored huge public works projects funded by taxes on the senatorial class who rebelled and overthrew him.

Let's just say he was a maverick.

I think Tsar* Nero was a libertarian socialist.

*More accurate than Emperor

Tsar is a slavic word, the correct word would be Imperator or Caesar.

Tsar is a slavicisation of the Latin, to be precise.
