Or like the guy who was lucky enough to get a relative to lend him 100k of capital vs the guy who has no one to lend him capital, etc etc etc.
The Soviets and Chinese tried to create your workers paradise where everything was fair. Guess what? Nothing was fair and it all failed regardless... and here we are. The worlds largest economy. I am sure you would have been happy with a shitty little apartment and factory job, no car and cheap vodka to dim the pain of the harsh winters as you walked to work.
