Capitalism is this social system that is based on the principle of individual rights. This results in a free market. To sum up, it means that you do and get what you want. Marxism/Communism, on the other hand, is a classless, stateless, moneyless social order that is structured upon common ownership. Basically it means that everyone works together and shares together.
I believe that capitalism is much more realistic to forming a more sustainable future. Humans are dumb. We are selfish. We only work together and share together when we believe we can benefit from it (with few irregularities). Capitalism is just much more realistic because everyone is responsible for their own "stuff". If you have this type of ownership over your stuff, I guarantee you will work much harder on it because you are the only one responsible for failing. It's like being put in a group project for school. There are always those people that do absolutely nothing in the group and benefit from it. If there were no groups though, they would have to actually do the task or they would fail, and they themselves would be the only one responsible.
As much as I would want communism to work (common ownership by working and sharing together seems legit) , I just do not see if being very realistic.
