You should realize that Orwell's critique wasn't aimed JUST at communism. It can apply to any bureaucratic system where people are involved (even ones where people are ostensibly created equal). There will always be some people that want to be on top - I can't say I want to be on the bottom, but it is in my interests to have the bottom to not be THAT far down. We can all get pushed to the bottom by circumstances.
