Yeah, but I don't think communism is a bulletproof solution either. Both systems have their strengths and weaknesses.
The real issue is that people think the disparity in wealth should grow instead of shrink.
Maybe there's a sweet spot in between Capitalism and Communism. They are basically the 2 extremes of the political spectrum after all. Surely there's a spot on the spectrum that embraces worker's rights while also incentivising commercial enterprise. Checks and balances are always necessary, even in a utopia.
Who literally says that? Capitalism is the only system that allows people to dig themselves out of that hole. Know any Cubans? Socialism works awesome...says nobody crushed by it.
I think you're projecting your tribalistic tendencies onto literally everyone else on the planet.
Sure......sure.......
