Its the same principle, the majority decides (whether through conquest or bankrupting the other economic system) ultimately as to what economic system they so choose. You may claim something like socialism is better but thats only your claim- the real world decides which system is better- capitalism focuses the best aspects of human virtues- namely greed, ambition, cooperation and competition and rewards them. Capitalism has raised more people out of poverty than any other system- thats why everyone is using it.
Your whinging is nothing more than jealousy.

the majority does not decide as the majority is not privy to that decision. it's not one big vote and it doesn't happen suddenly. the change from one system to another occurs gradually.
secondly you have no evidence that capitalism focuses on the best of human virtues because there are no objectively best virtues.
also i don't see what i'm jealous about. i live in a capitalist society.
