The hexbears will attack me for saying that a regulated free market is good and a planned economy is bad.

Yes, and we are right. The Soviets went from an agrarian backwater to an industrial giant in basically a decade using economic planning, doing all the complex math by hand. The US is a semi-deindustrialized state with access to supercomputers.

Russia is FAR closer to capitalism than socialism and the only planned parts left are corrupt shit...
