With factories being built (for jobs), and more exports (from factories) will slowly get the US out of its $14.71 trillion dollars in public debt. This also will turn the US into a classless nation, this means, equality. That can solve healthcare issues. Agree, or no? Why or why not?
I forgot to mention... Heres your proof
Comparison of all-in-all debts owed
US: About 250%
Russia: 79%
You see where I'm going with this?
No, communist. I do not see where you're going with this.
If you're going to build factories, I believe that these are going to be really low-tech factories that will employ 10 times more workers than it is needed for a factory that operates with automatized and optimized robot and computer technology.
Besides, your products will be of lower quality, once you absorb low quality workers in your factories(by the way, what will they actually produce?).
Comparing the debts of the US and Russia, I'd say that Russia produces less, exports less, imports more, and is dependent on it's natural resources to keep the economy from collapsing. Besides, most of the money is in the hands of a few oligarchs and shishmanbeys.
And lets not forget the ex-communist and ex-soviet countries:
Most of Russia's offsprings are rather poor. Ukraine is the main exporter of prostitutes in all of europe, and interestingly, it exports "educated" prostitutes, nearly all of the ukrainian prostitutes I was acquainted with were either school teachers, accountants, and I've heard of those who were doctors and engineers by profession, yet they could have a much better life standard with their earnings as a prostitute than they would if they were doing their own professions in Ukraine.
Besides, it's quite evident, that society progresses best when it is in the hands of the middle class. Communism will only allow for the progression of the lower classes, as based on the notion of a worker-dictatorship, but it'd be correct to state, that neither the hammer(industry workers) nor the sickle(agricultural workers) have a strong presence in America.
Most of the Americans are employed within the service sector. So what will be your symbolism for the communist American flag?
It's not to say that America shouldn't adopt the practices of a social state.
Free education and free healthcare, or the regulation of the market by the state requires the communist ideology to be implemented into the system.
