Russia most probably controls their industry tighter.
It’s almost like privatized industry is ineffective.
Yeah who could’ve guessed it eh.
Russian industry is also privatised tho
Yeah, but they haven’t had it as long. The ineffectuality grows over time until you have an F35 on top of your plane and tank graveyards.
Yeah all of the Soviet infrastructure and production facilities didn’t just all spontaneously disappear the moment Russia became capitalist.
But what about teh Soviet era equipment!!?!!11!!!
