Under capitalism profit is created via paying workers below the value they have created.
Socialist countries like eastern block and USSR, Pre 1956 (when took capitalist path. China pre 1976 etc were the fastest growing economies on the Planet. They had 0% unemployment free health care, education etc All whist starting poorer back many decades ago.
The west gave us some reforms like health care and 40 hour work week to compete with the soviet union but after the USSR went capitalist then dissolved the west is taking our workers rights away.
People often say " in the 70s/80s wages stopped rising with productivity" yeah that is because the USSR went against Marxism (and pushed this change on other left wing countries) and by 1976 China was capitalist too no one to compete with.
Think Khruschev's secret speech (which attacked Marxism via lying about Stalin indicating non Marxists had full power, they killed Stalin and did a coup as well) and Chinas market reforms.
Today we enslave the third world via unequal exchange through imperialism TLDR they live in poverty and produce all our shit. We invade, bomb and coup them if they refuse. The average person in the first world is still broke as it all goes to billionaire capitalists.
We have no democracy in every country we can vote for two parties that are both pro capitalism.
The free market causes constant recessions and economic crisis.
We are living in a movie where the bad guys won and the good guys are slandered.
