We had to because communism would've spread [] and we'd have a lot more to deal with
There's a lot less wrong with communism than capitalism. Tongue

Though the best way forward is a balance of both methods.

Nah, with a perfect population any government system will work well.

The main problem with communism is greedyness, (which isn't helped by so many people over-valueing money), and power-hungry people that want to control others.

the instant someone gets greedy communism fails and, at the risk of sounding like Voltaire, all people are greedy. Even Mother Teresa had some scandal arising from one of her charities

Capitalism is much better than communsim.  When the government begins overly interfering in the economy, or starts promoting too many social welfare programs, the country falls into shambles.  Wink

Gorbachev tried to reform the USSR, which led to pretty much each republic demanding their own country.  The union fell apart, and Gorbachev's job of head of the communist party became obsolete.  Wink
