It's almost like there's a middle ground that's the best of both worlds.

Except there isn't. we tried that then the capitalists bought the weaker willed politicians and used them to undermine any regulation. Capitalism is a cancer and must be excised as such.

I don't disagree that Capitalism doesn't work in its purest form, but we've hardly had a success with communism in its purest form either.

We literally have. Look at the massive literacy, life expectancy, and political rights increases under literally every single communist government compared to what came before them instead of comparing them to some utopian ideal that capitalism compares even less favorably to.
