In a free market economy there is much competition and like in many contests only a few receive medals. The moral of this is that a handful of countries with strong priorities on economy like the Western Nations are the medal winners while most other countries are the perennial losers that get exploited or worse yet get left out completely and live on handouts.. Those countries are better off to have a centralized economy and be self sufficient, even if much behind the free market top economies.

Right now there are numerous countries that have their citizens living below the standards that could be achieved with a communist government.
