    Look at the 50 percent economic growth per decade achieved by soviet centralized economic planning

    Look at this where? In which metric are you measuring economic growth?

      Pretty sure I got it from growth crystal, a very dry economics book. I dont remember by which metric but you could probably find it within the first few chapters.

        Cool, I checked out Growth Crystal and it looks like a PowerPoint presentation at a timeshare pitch.

      I think you need to look in his ass, where he pulled that number from. These communist types really believe all this nonsense and just handwave all the famines, civil terrors, or just the fact that no communist system ever became a success. its all just for the common good, right?

        Consider not assuming everyone on the internet is a guy. Also consider reading the English translation of growth crystal.
