From my understanding, our case studies in communist societies have the same if not worse weath dispersal, so I don't believe that this is a communist Vs capitalist issues, and more of a corruption of either societal type problem due to people being easily taken advantage of in groups.

Please correct me if I'm wrong in this though, I may simply be falling for the propaganda machine.

In a communist society, isn't the wealth not supposed to be accumulated by a handful of investors ? If that wealth not centralized on a few staleholders isn't it more distributed or spent on social systems / societal expenses ?

In communism there is no wealth, since it would be a moneyless society.
