    In communism, the people do all of the work and the government and kleptocrats take all of the benefit

    This is empirically and demonstrably false. You’ve been lied to. Example: USSR, an Actually Existing Socialist state (what you call communism):

    As for who was this top 10% and top 1%, the highest paid people were actually highly trained personnel like university professors, prominent artists, researchers, etc.
