how so?
Russia asked the US to come over and analyze what went wrong with their economy after the USSR fell, and it was found that they were operating something like at half the economic strength.
Eastern block countries grow faster because they have more room to grow
source mera
And you can hardly consider them to be socialism anyway
i've heard sargon say that shit multiple times and he has never provided a source
baraban that makes no sense
That makes perfect sense
why would they have more room to grow compared to countries that had the same gdp per capita on average
History and countries are a pretty good source... go sell socialism to Venezauila.
venezuela isn't socialist
Because they aren't as advence, but they are catching up
what's your dumb question
how are they not as advanced baraban
where's your source that the eastern bloc was more prosperous than western europe?
👀👀
i'm talking about comparing eastern bloc countries to a selection of capitalist countries that fell within the eastern bloc's gdp per capita range in 1950
They are obviously less advanced
And the gap was bigger
but eastern bloc countries grew faster
I"ve walked in a bit late, what exactly are you refering to? I Just wanted to ask a dumb question.
No they weren't
notice all the stuff in that document that got better as the soviet union reformed and edged closer and closer to capitalism.
whats your dumb question tho
So ask @Kalisme
commies are boring
ive seen them have this talk like 3 times already
If they grew faster and they were always as advanced why aren't they better by now?
they did become better baraban
No
0_o
They obviously didn't
i mean the data directly contradicts you
What data?
they overtook those countries in terms of gdp per capita and had disproportionately high standards of living for their level of development
China isn't a rich country by any stretch of the imagination
It's also really oppressed
