Socialism, or even more correctly, the state capitalism, which was called socialism, in Russia led only to a shortage and low quality of products, nepotism and bribery, and after that, when the communist elite degenerated, and the contradictions of the social system became insoluble, they sabotaged the already sophisticated deficit to finish off the current regime, which later due to the centralization of power under the soviets It led to predatory, uneven and opaque privatization, and now the current system cannot be called capitalist, but rather fascist, where all power and capital are centralized in the hands of a few Russian oligarchs and politicians in symbiosis with them.
