  They aren't doing any better, and for the same reasons.

    > the same reasons. Which reasons ? Both systems are about as opposed as you can imagine without straight up walking out of capitalism
    • forgetfreeman 4y ago
      Yes, keep going...
      • lm28469 4y ago
        You're the one making vague arguments, I'm not going to do your homework
