In Madrid people throw their garbage at the banks entrance

[vostok]

Yeah but with many problems.

Something new is always more difficult to accomplish. Next time, when the world will come to socialism will be much easier - mistakes will be known.

Socialism worked in the Soviet Union before the arrival of the traitor Gorbachev.

Yeah, it worked so well the righteous communists took loan after loan from the evil imperialist capitalist dogs.

So what? The Japanese have already more than 200% of the debt - that does not mean that their economy is not working.

Yes, but in USSR the economy wasn't working and debt had piled up.

The Soviet economy was working fine until the mid 80s. Also in the West, too, was a deep crisis at the time. U.S. debt under Reagan has increased several times.

LOL.

Didn't an anonymous Soviet citizen say: " they pretend to pay us and we pretend to work"?

In the West, no one was criticizing authorities? Everyone was happy?
There was just crisis, mass layoffs and unemployment.

Yeah there was, but unlike you, i'm not claiming there wasn't. Logic is amazing isn't it?

 

[OrionHunter]

They must have got this habit from us South Asians!!

 

[vostok]

Yeah there was, but unlike you, i'm not claiming there wasn't. Logic is amazing isn't it?

Oh no, I'm not saying that there was no crisis. I say that it was. Just like in the West. This either means that both economies were not working, or both worked, but both had problems.

Yea, but one of them collapsed. An insignificant detail, i know.

In the collapse of the Soviet Union we need to blame politics, not economics.
The British Empire, French, Dutch, Portugal - all were destroyed in the 50-70s of the 20th century. For political reasons, not economic ones.
West likes to boast that won the Cold War. This is not true. The situation is this - one of the pretenders to fight for a world title shot himself before the match. A second later began to boast that he won. But he did not win.
In addition, the United States withheld from default not by capitalist methods. Capitalism is dead since 2008 - the economy is kept afloat by administrative methods.

The Economic Collapse of the Soviet Union

You can blame even Satan. But the guilty for the collapse of the USSR - Gorbachev. He tried to cure the socialist economy with capitalist methods. Although, in fact - he deliberately ruined the state - the Party, and the economy.
