Capitalism, when not regulated, tends to increase inequality. This will, eventually, lead to instability and a societal reset.

Capitalism doesn't need to be perfect in order to be a better system for organizing a society than communism.
OTOH, communism doesn't need to be perfect to be better than unregulated capitalism.
We've tried almost entirely unregulated capitalism. Inequality increased, but only up to a point. It didn't increase without bound.
