Most supported premises
The taking of a life is not immoral.
Your argument is not sane in a general sense. A proper formulation would be it is not NECESSARILY immoral to take a life, which I agree with. You cannot make the general affirmation of your original argument.

Socialism is more effective at poverty reduction and ensuring the meeting of basic needs than capitalism
Price information is EXACTLY at the heart of the debate of Capitalism versus Socialism. The computation of price information is the reason Capitalism succeeds and reduces Poverty. Communism/Socialism is a mandated destruction of price information in some local or larger area of the economy.

Fallacy Of Special Pleading
Socialism is more effective at poverty reduction and ensuring the meeting of basic needs than capitalism
This is roughly translatable to the (false) statement: "The town, eating the seed crop harvested this season, which was set aside for planting anew at maximum efficiency in the new Spring season, will reduce poverty more." Only by a sophist trick of the mind does it APPEAR to reduce poverty more.

Poisoning The Well
Socialism is more effective at poverty reduction and ensuring the meeting of basic needs than capitalism
The citizens WILL suffer less poverty during the winter months, they can sell the seed crop to buy expensive fur coats. However Socialist systems are the same but the time scales vary - the 'seed crop' may be needed 15 years later but if so it is still destructive to have eaten/sold it all earlier.
