USSR or USA?Which one do you favor most?

I wish my grandfather was alive, he could have given me so much information about the local soviet "culture" here in Estonia from the day the Soviets learned what an acctual toilet was to what ever else crazy they did. Like eating shoewax in the army because alcohol was prohibited. Everybody take a note that the Soviet culture is a very far haven from Russian culture.

I can't believe those who say they would prefur a dictatorship with no political or basic human freedoms, long breadlines and a government whose stated goal was to dominate the world through advancing communsim. Over a nation that provides almost half the food consumed in the world, a free press and whose stated perpose is the eternal pursuite of the democratic ideal.

Ask those who lived in the shadow of communism what they think.

All it boils down to is that there are many jeaous hearted people in the world who dream of a revised Soviet Union in order to be a thorn in the side of Uncle Sam due to the fact that most folks in the world regard Americans as nothing more than a bunch of uneducated morons.

Yet, somehow we gave the world the Airplane, Motion pcitures, atomic power, the computer that you are using now, the fiberoptic cable, the internet, just to name a few and we even managed be the only country in history to put a man on the moon while most of the nations of the world was still trying to develop their own airplane.

What did the U.S.S.R give the world ? Ak47s, the Berlin Wall, and a failed Marxist ideal that has been swept into the abyss of history.

Hell! in America even as a citizen I can own an AK40 (which I do,) as long as I don't abuse that right.

Listen to this;

The Communist system failed because they decided to enter a rat race with the Americans. They invested huge amounts of money into a Missile race they could never win. They created the Cuban missile crisis because they could only compensate their inferiority in the missile gap through increasing the deterrancy of their missiles by placing them somewhere close to the Yankees.

None of the above for me too! Down with both of them!

Bah. The Soviet lied to their leaders about the economy. If that's not messed up, I don't know what is.

And I respect the idea of Communism, but like the belief goes, it works on paper but doesn't work in reality. The Soviets did rather well for a country that was formerly backwater, though.

maybe because its 500 times better than the Soviet system...

None of the above!
