Communism sounds great but it assumes that the people who rise to the top and run the government are going to share the wealth.

You just described capitalism.

The idea with communism is that

there is no "top" to rise to
there is no "government" that we would recognize as such from our reference frame

which would make this impossible to happen.

Ok forget capitalism for a minute and look at communism on its own merit. Jumping into a shit system cause the current one is also shit isnt a solution
