: If we do not switch to communism the rich will keep getting richer and the poor poorer?

Communism & capitalism are virtually the same. Both involve the concentrating of economic power in the hands of a very small cliche.
Power on that scale almost always corrupts. Democracy and freedom are lost. Both are concepts new to the past century and political systems did exist before then.

The problem is the concentration of power and its not relivant whether you call those in power capitalists or polititions with their 7 year plan.

So support your local companies before they are lost. Campaign against multi national corporate welfare and see if you can think of any acceptable ways to hamper the multinationals because they are the current danger. Maybe communism will be the next.
