The thing is, communism and capitalism are basically monetary systems. They aren't power systems. No matter how a country's finances are set up, there's always some assholes who eventually manage to claw their way to the top and get very rich off of their power, and bring everything crashing down because they will always want more.

That's why anyone who is knowledgable and serious about it knows that it IS NOT a direct goal to seek. It is a state of being after you've gotten past all the rich fucks and power hungry. Yes, that likely means it is impossible to attain, especially in our lifetimes, but that doesn't make it a bad target when approached properly.
