you're a perfect example.
Communism would work if everyone would give everything he can so that erveryone has everything he needs. But, like you're said, some people are greedy and will expoit such a system. Thats why they only work in smaller scales.
but the "humans are bad" fact will also bring capitalism down. Pro Capitalists always argue that if the industry is wealthy is will also benefit the "normal" people. But thats BS, cooperations are also "not basically good", they will do everything possible to maximise their profit. And that will result in the exploitation of the "working class".
I see big problem in the future, both extremes (communism and a "pure" free market capitalism) will not work. We need a controlled "social capitalism" (as free as possible, as controlled as necessary), but currently the cooperations are fighting, quite successfuly, any kind of control.
