To countries America

Even though Cuba has a “better standard of living “

Extremely terrible argument there Att

a lot of soviet produced goods are still in use now
everything from things like hangers cutlery to tools and thermometres and even freezers and all

because they last

yes and they weren’t soviet produced

they were

“it measures the height of the market
now where profit margins do not exist and where overconsumption is deincetivized the gdp will remain low”

i live in the ex ussr

Incorrrct

USSR freezers were the best in the world

Yes that’s not evidence

I live in USA and we invented the moon

they had to keep everyone's food nice and safe while the people starved 😏

USSR tech, quality of life

the stravation is a fat joke

was shit

The income was shit

it was a mismangement in the 30s

nothing else

GDP PPP per capita was a shithole

No it wasn’t

1 year of a devastating disease

yes it was

It was the forced collectivisation which caused a famine

i can tell you first hand that it was stupid

no, the collectivization had happened way before the holodomor

And the stagnating economy after the USSR stole and seized technology and equipment from the west

the case of the ussr isn't mis-management

it's mis-take

And used it to develop more their underdeveloped country

and the mass annexation of countries

Giving a strong labour force

no, they developed a fuck ton of themselves

With literally tiny freedom

the labour force was mostly russian anyway

and generalyl from the old ussr

except the annexation which added millions

they imported a ton of workers here(baltics)

and the fact that the economic growth decline was due to the fact that socialism was inefficient and the technology/equipment gained from the west was used up
