The way I see it, it isn't so much about which system is more efficient -- it's about which implementation of either system has less corruption. The Soviet system failed because of rampant corruption, just like the American system

This is true but it's also true in this instance that the adversary was already antagonistic and was moving towards self-sufficiency at their own pace while using your technology to do so. The reasoning behind cutting them off through
