Star Wars is infinitely superior. At least no character of that series is living in some pseudo-communist happyland where everything has been made perfect forever, apart from some nasty aliens.To be fair, Ivan, Trek did give us the Ferengi, the ultimate capitalists! Long live the Rules of Acquisition!

Yes, but note how the ultimate capitalists were portrayed as swindlers and somehow backward.

The Ferengi were a cross between space pirates and corperate socialists with a tax system that made the IRS Income Tax code look simple.
The Ferengi were not capitalists, and the Federation would not know what a capitalist is considering thet are all communists.
