Many feel Jesus was Communist/Socialist because they feel Jesus always promoted the good things that poor people tried to do and found fault with successful or powerful people. Can we find instances where Jesus thought good of non-poor people?

Does Jesus believe lowly people are valuable? How valuable?
Jesus believes all are valuable.  He needed to convince the wealthy and powerful that all people are equal in the eyes of God and must be treated as equals.

Goeller Brief Summary of Jesus

Jesus was born of human, earthly body, and Godly soul.  He followed the Jewish history of leaving the promised land to go to Egypt.  Then returned to the promised land.  During his childhood he was a good son, honoring his Mother and Father, but as he moved into his manhood (age 12/13) he started his ministry as seen in the "Lost at the Temple" event.  As there is no information from age 12/13 to his meeting with John, logic would suggest that he was good to his parents and followed in his Father's carpentry craft.  It would also be logical that leaders/teachers would have recognized his understanding of Jewish history and law that Jesus would have kept in "school."  Given that Nazereth would have had limited educational opportunities, little would be known or written about Jesus at this time of his life.

During his ministry his followers included all walks of life, from poor to wealthy.  The wealthy and possibly powerful followers that may have changed events were not able or did not have the earthly resources to save Jesus from the Cross (God's Plan).
