The problem is authoritarianism, whatever path you take there. Maybe there's a government type that minimizes the odds of a rise of an authoritarian leader, but I don't know what it would be. If somebody knows, please tell me.
Communism sounds great but it assumes that the people who rise to the top and run the government are going to share the wealth. Humans aren’t like that, we are too selfish. The ones who reach the top will always take more and give less to the ones at the bottom
You just described capitalism.
The idea with communism is that
which would make this impossible to happen.
Ok forget capitalism for a minute and look at communism on its own merit. Jumping into a shit system cause the current one is also shit isnt a solution
