I think we should agree as a starting point that all countries systems have both good and bad points.

Many now miss east germany, USSR and so on.

They enjoyed the benafits. The free health care, not worring about getting a job.

Some (not everyone) have said they were much happier under such systems. Life was simp[ler. They had more pleaser time.

During the cold war, we in the UK purchased many USSR made cars. They were semi popular. Though to be fair I fail to understand why as they were often ugly, expencive and not reliable. Though when the collaps of USSR came we sold the cars back to russan people as there was a demand (nostalgic) for the USSR cars.
