They have one of the largest economies in the world is well

@Deleted User Ted missed the economic problem as well

Wealth also plays a large role

Wealth distribution is stupid

Earn you’re own fucking money

It's not about wealth distribution anyways

doop

just look at the nsdap
very advanced, very traditional @Shiba Inu

@DrRisen the Soviet Union literally was extremely successful compared to Tsarist Russia

But rather the amount of resources the average person has access to

Humans are animals

@Wubbzo and still failed to compete with the USA

Humans are not animals

We have a conscious.

We didn't evolve in a world with infinite resources, we evolved in an environment with scarce resources

@Attika they only "failed" because of administrative issues. Things under Stalin were fine.

And today we live in a world with nearly infinite resources

What the fuck is this supposed to mean? Are they trying to say democracy is bad or are they trying to say democracy is good?

i dont see a causal link is what im saying
all i see is correlation

When Russia transitioned into capitalism, the economy basically crashed

@Wubbzo Tru

@DrRisen trying to say is it good?

@Attika The average person in a country like China has significantly less resources at their disposal than someone in the United Sates does.

@DrRisen you kinda have to second guess the questions tbh

If I disagree am I disagreeing to it being better than the alternative or disagreeing to it being the worst???

if you agree, you are saying democracy is bad.

Like what the fuck, just be concise, it’s not that difficult.

Overabundance of resources fucks human priorities. There is no struggle involved

@Shiba Inu prices in China are also lower...so I mean it all depends on the point of view.

@Attika Im accounting for purchasing power

this seems kinda arbitrary and gay tbh @Shiba Inu

Californians make more money usually but cost of living is way higher

That's why purchasing power is accounted for

rather than raw income

Russia is a great example

of why raw income is misleading

Russia isn't poor

@Wubbzo Yes and no. It could also be interpreted as saying that it’s the best form of goverment we have because all the others are worse.

2nd world countries have it best tbh @Shiba Inu

***ITS A MOTHERFUCKING LEADING QUESTION AND I OBJECT!***

@Deleted User I agree 100%
