      What if… All systems are inherently corrupt because of human nature and we just have to choose the best one of the crappy lot to survive and that’s definitely not crony capitalism?

        How do you even want to have a communism without the Marx theoretised over abundance and infinite supply of goods? I don’t think we are going to have that any time soon last I checked.

        All the attempts so far were so called socialism intermediary step because there is no prophesied infinite abundance just yet and someone would have to regulate who gets what that poses all sorts of problems and abuse

        Hence we don’t have some kind of god who regulates who gets what extensively and we let the market do this and see it as the most just system currently possible

        It’s possible that one day technology enables us to naturally progress to communism. Fusion power, infinite energy is a good bet but even then there will still be limited goods such as land.

        If humans are inherently corrupt, how did we get to where we are now? If we never worked together and wanted to be greedy all the time, how did we get a post information age society?
