Even the prices of potatoes and basic day to day items. No one was allowed to own a private business, it was all government-owned for the "greater good" This created untold issues. You see, we need competition to keep things moving forward. This system took that away.

When you have one central planning authority trying to micro-manage massive populations daily necessities. It ends up a complete and utter mess. Especially when these people are low paid and incompetent . The people of the USSR suffered massively under this system.

Food lines were daily, shortages were common, many people actually starved to death. Of course, you could critics the government for this, or you would be arrested and sent to a gulag for "re-education"pic.twitter.com/Q062ZHNFvW

This is what collapsed the USSR eventually, they could not maintain their flawed economic model, which in reality, only benefited the globalist banksters who had to lend the USSR so much money to fund all their free healthcare, housing and MASSIVE military.pic.twitter.com/rAFLNUjrwD

Quite ironic how the main beneficiaries of this system were fat cat western capitalist bankers - who Comrade Lenin (pictured above) Claimed to be fighting against during his red terror campaign which was the birth of the USSR and the brutal regimes that followed.

More than it would like to admit, due to the large population they have, which could easily revolt and overrun them. The enterprise zones allow for businesses to run out with the strict government control like in the USSR, where they kept everybody dirt poor, which led to troublepic.twitter.com/AHanPFXzVN

You have the beef sourced from one farm, the mushrooms from another, the veg, chips, potatoes etc from another, the egg from somewhere else. This is all COMPETITION. There is a vested interest in rival companies to produce the best products and then, get it to customers!

For the best price. This ensures the whole market has value, and only the best and brightest will rise to the top of these companies, as, they are rewarded finically for doing well and getting more sales! Communism is anti-human nature Capaltismm is pro human nature

Communism is based on envy, jealously and only centralises power at the VERY VERY TOP. Capitalism - allows a healthy flow of cash from the top down. If you want more, you gotta compete for more and win!
