instead of reading marx and engels, you should learn basic biology and economics.

@Spag @mactonite Same graph but with the US, and then same graph but with comparable countries. It was a comparative power house because it was just massive, which came from first stealing from the Tsars and then colonising other countries, but it was actually shitty at growing, though granted it had a relative boom from just raw industrialisation efforts that then lagged

Also, >gdp
Commies will always be as greedy and money oriented as capitalists

Third thing, these are numbers, and IIRC it's measured in in USD, which has tricky comparisons to soviet rubles, and the actual numbers from the state have to be trusted anyway, without really any outside audits

Fourth, the graph is literally showing that it rebounded faster than it was growing previously, lol

@applejack @mactonite You really like replying to me don't you?

Well, anyway:

>same graph but with comparable countries
The info on the second one is very easily verifiably incorrect. Just look at Spain's GDPpc

>Commies will always be as greedy and money oriented as capitalists
Mhm [an, 1 & 2]

1. Yes, it is numbers, what did you expect?
2. You can compare both to gold, which is how the soviets did and how Russia still does today (for comparison, not fiat)
3. They did have 3rd party independent audits

>Fourth, the graph is literally showing that it rebounded faster than it was growing previously
1. They already had the machinery and the people there
2. It is measured per capita and the population is declining [an.3]
