I know a different angle of this one.
Reagan visits the USSR and is amazed by the capital construction he has seen.
Reagan: "How do you manage to build structures like this? Your logistics is shit, you have no technology and people are apathetic."
Gorbachev: "Soviet people built it all with great enthusiasm and while singing songs".
Reagan: "Bullshit, it's impossible to motivate people like this in your system. You don't even pay them money!"
Gorbachev: "On the contrary, my friend. It's impossible to motivate people like this in your system. I will prove it to you. Take a cat and motivate it to eat a jar of mustard (Russian mustard is spicy), I will wait."
Reagan's aides spend whole day trying to make the cat eat mustard. They try hiding it in other foods, forcing it to eat, talking to it but the cat just refuses.
Reagan: "Well, it appears to be impossible to make the damn cat eat this mustard. I doubt you can do it though".
Gorbachev orders his aide and he puts a handful of mustard under the cat's tail. The cat starts wailing and desperately licking the mustard off his balls.
Gorbachev: "Like I said, with great enthusiasm and singing a song".
