The implementations of communism we've seen have always been authoritarian. On the contrary, capitalist system tend to have freedoms (like speech). These freedoms makes a difference wrt. corruption. I think the argument is that systems with personal freedoms, like free speech, are better at correcting their shortcomings. I don't know if you can make a communist system with personal freedoms. Maybe.. but classically we've associated communism with planned economies. In my mind, planned economy sounds ideal, until you realize that it's the same as waterfall software development :D
