(except for the "russian crisis" of 98)
"the ussr was a utopia" - @Deleted User
No other state wanted contact with a communist one
USSR had frequent consumer goods shortages actually
It wasnt so bright as it seems to be
any shortages wouldve also happened under capitalism
russia wasnt a rich country before the ussr ya know
Not really
US has had nearly no consumer goods shortage under most of its history for instance
the ussr literally turned a undeveolped nation into a devolped one
@ClibtardMario it has alot of farmland
Except world wars, great depression and I dont think so about civil war
@Deleted User GDP and industry doesnt matter when it doesnr serve the consumer
*do not
In fact
Most of USSR industry was directed to military
@ClibtardMario Portugal had severe shortages during our dictatorship, which heavily supported monopolies for example
So the consumers faced frequent shortages
@Hervepärka Supporting monopolies (corporatocracy) is a thing
@ClibtardMario the ussr had to have a big economy because no one would leave them alone
Letting them develop and keep businesses away from govt lobby is another
@Deleted User >My dault
*fault
<:GWchadMEGATHINK:366999806343774218>
and the only people who starved were farmers refusing to work
if i refuse to eat and die whos fault is that @ClibtardMario
So its people's fault if they are willingly poor under a capitalist society too
i.e. not seeking a jon
*job
Or not having one to choose, or not being accepted
not everyone has that choice
Technically
Usually half of the unemployed people on a country are seeking a job
the other half isnt
And the latter isnt shown on the common jobless data (U-3)
Or is it U-4? idk
a good amount of unemployed people CANT get a job
they tried and failed
tbh
Long term unemployment is usually 2-4 times lower than the amount of unemployed ppl seeking a job
