Every communist nation had a much larger high technology sector than similarly developed capitalist nations.
Unless you want to talk to me about the fabs in Portugal and Mexico in 1990 when compared to the ones in Bulgaria and the USSR you're making my point for me.
- analognoise 8y agoYeah that's why engineers from Soviet Societies would scale barbed wire fences at the risk of getting shot to get here! Communism is great if you like hunger and oppressive stupidity. "But it's never really been tried!" - No, it has: it is fundamentally incompatible with freedom and/or intellect. Nobody is buying what you're selling, champagne socialist.
- zeth___ 8y agoSomehow there weren't that many engineers in Guatemala. Plenty of child prostitutes though. I guess capitalism really gives you want you want.
