Dmitry Fedoseev:
Fattier than in the USSR? Was there some kind of social package in the USSR?

  • a guaranteed job - there was no unemployment as a class
  • Guaranteed employment in their field of study after university
  • free education, including higher education
  • free medical care
  • guaranteed pensions
  • 8-hour guaranteed working day
  • health insurance benefits
  • .....
  • The boss who did not work with the rubbish you wrote in your complaint was sentenced to up to 2 years. By the way, it's democracy, not an opportunity to bullshit on every corner.
  • You should have explained where you got the money. I failed to explain, if the amount exceeds 5 thousand, I could (and did) get a tower).

But this is not the most important thing:

Soviet socialism created grandiose projects for its citizens, in which anyone (I emphasize ANYONE) could realize themselves to the maximum.

So the country was populated by scientists, engineers, artists, painters, writers... outstanding workers...

And now it's all Abramovichs and Abramoviches. Look in the box. Who's all the hustlers? Stolen and not caught?

 
Alexandr Saprykin:
China - that's socialism for you.

...And that was not easy to achieve, especially the cultural revolution of the 70s.

What's interesting is that there are still supporters of Mao in China.

 
Dmitry Fedoseev:

But they did.

And probably not the least of the help there is the execution of corrupt people.

  • 11. he had to explain where he got the money. If he didn't explain where he got the money, he could (and did) pay up to 5 thousand rubles.)

But this is not the most important thing:

12. soviet socialism created huge projects for its citizens, in which anyone (I emphasize ANYONE) could realize himself to the maximum.

So the country was populated by scientists, engineers, artists, painters, writers... outstanding workers...

1. Indicator of inefficient production.

2. Not true. First, the training in universities was weak, and secondly, at first they put students in jobs, of course, but in blue-collar jobs, where most people stayed.

3. See point 2.

4. this could generally be developed as a special topic, there is a lot to talk about, especially a lot. Briefly: medicine in the USSR was an iron machine, not allowing patients a step to the left or a step to the right, and everything is strictly as prescribed from above. I don't agree, or the woods with no sick leave and no disability allowance. One more small point is very amusing, as now I do not know, but it was so: having been on sick leave for 4 months, they calculate them from work and send to the commission on disability, on which in half of cases disability is not recognized and a man remains without health and without pension, but with the book "How the Steel Was Tempered" on the bookshelf. After that the article of the Criminal Code about parasitism came into force. In general the perfect model of the society. By the way, did you ever call an ambulance in the USSR? - You had to wait two hours.

5. Yeah, I remember my grandmother's pension - 50 roubles. She worked in a military hospital during the war, though for prisoners of war... probably for that.

6. There was also an irregular schedule of +2 hours or 4 hours a week. I was struck by this play on words in the USSR - working irregularly does not mean that you get the job done and go home. It means that if you've given your 8, give some more. You could also offer to work a second shift in a row. But they forgot to organise proper meals. And there were 8 hours and 2 to 4 hours of end-of-shift washing and travelling time.

8. See above, and I also remember well how easy it was to get it. You had to be near death, then maybe they would give it to you.

9.

10. Yeah. The snitch system was well-developed.

11. I remember how the golden-handed craftsmen sewed things and with fear looking around, tried to sell them at the market.

12. I remember the Housing 2000 programme. How could you make the most of it when everything was forbidden?

13. Not true. There was only the cult of physics and mathematics to choose one who would go on to saw the world's best nuclear bomb.

If everything was so good, why did the country fall apart? Did you want to live better?

That is where the saying comes from - the best is the enemy of the good.

 
Socialism (ideology aside) - has already been built (e.g. by the Swedes, etc.).
 
Vladimir Tkach:

If everything was so good, why did the country fall apart? Did they want to live even better?

That's where the saying - the best is the enemy of the good.

That's exactly where it comes from. There was socialism, they wanted communism.... and then it's over...

2. Not true. Firstly, the training in universities was weak, and secondly, at first they put people into jobs, in their specialty of course, but in working professions, where most of them remained.

Don't be cheeky...

I lived there, I don't need to make it up.

What makes you think it fell apart? Everything is intact, even the same leaders. Or appointed by them. Everything is as it used to be. I don't know what you're all talking about.

It is obvious to me.

At the 21st Congress, they promoted the slogan "Let us catch up and outrun America in meat, milk and butter. Khrushch promoted it. So we caught up... Everything what I wrote was not necessary - everyone got used to it and believed that it would be so since the dawn of time.

In a nutshell, it has been implemented: "The belly has conquered the mind".
