I believe that either economic model (communist or capitalist) is destined to collapse, sooner or later. One of the main factors being greed. Greed is what causes inflation. Companies are driven to make more profit. People need more income to purchase the higher priced items they need AND "want" (ie; form of greed).
In my area, I know many people earning minimum wage (Canada) and even simple one-room apartments tax their ability to have any disposable income. But there are also many companies that would be hard pressed to increase their prices such as to pay significantly more than minimum wage and still have a decent customer base. Add to the picture the coming "death" of cheap energy and the picture becomes even more bleak. Economic crash and the re-issue of currency has happened before and has to happen again. To survive, eliminate your debt and try desperately to own all your property out-right. Just my two-cents worth.
