what about the highway

this is what i was referencing to forced labor and machine tools import

basically they just traded their human capital and land resources for imports of machine production

i don't see how

and created the infrastructure that supported their entire system through means we would deem unreasonable

how not?

read the links i posted

they built up the industrial sector through planning

they planned for imports

did you actually think they launched an industrial revolution that was purely native?

i mean sure some gulag labor was used but the vast majority would have been regular labor

their machine production was shipped from foreign countries

especially the US

the industrialization that they saw was nothing more than a product of them importing machine production, relocating labor and building mass infrastructure through immoral labor sources

the fall that they start seeing is when the source of those imports drop due to onset of the cold war

the soviet union could not support itself by native industry alone
