From my understanding, our case studies in communist societies have the same if not worse weath dispersal, so I don't believe that this is a communist Vs capitalist issues, and more of a corruption of either societal type problem due to people being easily taken advantage of in groups.
Please correct me if I'm wrong in this though, I may simply be falling for the propaganda machine.
