Basically this was the mechanism the USA won the cold war against the USSR. Now almost all former socialist states are capitalist, because they went bankrupt.

- Normal_gaussian 10y agoThat makes no sense. You are saying that the USSR went bankrupt because people were trying to use things in it for free? Surely it has a lot more to do with the political oppression and top down control of the economy.
- kodfodrasz 10y agoPeople in this topic are arguing for free toilets paid by the government. Now what is that if not a top down control of economy?
- Normal_gaussian 10y agoThey aren't preventing private toilets - free or otherwise - being created. Pretty simple.
