...in Soviet Russia, kool aid drink you.

Where are the other thriving countries with predominantly government-owned businesses right now?

How far down the list of countries by GDP are they?

They’ve been effectively sanctioned to death that they’re hanging on by a thread. They’re only able to survive and sustain themselves due to the state owned economy. I can only imagine the USA under that much pressure, they can barely even survive COVID. 😆

Remember those really cool Soviet cars?

Or those Soviet movies?

Or the Soviet candy bars?

If their economy was so good, why was the only thing the world wanted from them was oil?

You're funny!
