It had everything to do with human greed.

As long as there is the suggestion or possibility, no matter how remote that anyone of us can become enormously wealthy, we won't want to change the system.

I don't know what worse, the corruption of communism or the corruption of capitalism. Right now, we're in the American Nightmare stage of capitalism. Seems to me humanity can't have an economic system where a group of people want all the wealth and power.
