Neither.

Also, the governing philosophy in the USSR was Marxism-Leninism, not Communism.

Communism is an unattainable philosophy based on idealistic logical fallacies.

Capitalism isn't exactly a philosophy. It's more like, the way economies naturally evolve. What you mean is The Free Market, or maybe libertarianism, which yes, is better than that communism. But most anything is.

As for good books on the subject, the big 3 might be Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations, Milton Friedman's Free to Choose, and Thomas Sowell's Basic Economics. Though I'd read Friedman's first, then Sowell's (which is heavily inspired in Friedman's) and the The Wealth of Nations (which heavily inspired Friedman's and Sowell's, but it's a couple of centuries old and thus a bit outdated - Friedman was trying to update it).

There's no confrontation here. Socialist countries aren't sustentable without external capitalism. And capitalism is the mere brute state of human relations.

Yeah, capitalism makes no political claims. Nice meme though

How old were you when you grew out of books? I was 12 when I set down my copy of Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince and got my first twitter account, and I've never looked back.
