Pretending that your assertion is correct that communism always fails and that it’s because of greed, that still doesn’t mean greed is inherent in humans. All it takes is a few bad actors to ruin any system, if given enough power. Capitalism is failing right before our eyes due to this tiny minority of billionaires and capitalism had already failed due to a tiny minority of super wealthy in the past before it was rescued in response to mass protests that threatened revolution.
Speaking of salvaging terrible things, the wealthy used to build hospitals and libraries only as part of reputation laundering. They will do nothing unless they feel threatened. You’re focusing on tech in particular, but it’s a feature inherent in the ultra-wealthy. They will do only enough to save themselves and continue holding their position of power, otherwise they continue pushing limits.

Virtually everything Freud thought up has been debunked. He’s influential in the field because he was early.
Capitalism is working quite well at its intended purpose of transferring wealth to the capitalists, but it’s not working for everyone else. It’s been an issue before the naked money-grabbing “inflation” of the pandemic, it’s just become even more apparent now. The insane wealth difference was already insane prior, it’s just gotten even more insane.

If it can’t be debunked then it’s pseudoscience. Science requires a hypothesis be falsifiable. The quality of life in America is beaten by several countries. Take a look at any quality of life ranking. Here are a few: https://www.worlddata.info/quality-of-life.php https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/standard-of-living-by-country https://www.usnews.com/news/best-countries/rankings/quality-of-life https://www.numbeo.com/quality-of-life/rankings_by_country.jsp
The US doesn’t crack top ten in any of these. Look at life expectancy: https://www.worldometers.info/demographics/life-expectancy/ https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SP.DYN.LE00.IN?most_recent_value_desc=true
Asking for a country that “isn’t capitalism” is a trick question because a lot of these quality of life improvements come from socialist policies.

This was your claim and I debunked it very easily. Do you think government-provided healthcare is capitalism? The US does spend a lot of money, but that doesn’t prove anything other than the US having a lot of money.

I’ve offered rankings based on metrics, you’ve just offered your opinion, but somehow you think others are arguing based on feelings. People trying to move to the US just means places that are worse exist. No one is arguing against this. What part of government-provided health care is capitalism?
