This was the point where Russians had to admit that the American capitalist system was superior to their German communist system. Russians are politically like women or niggers. They're unable to build their own systems and copy whatever works from others in a really shoddy way.

It's not the popsicles. It's the refrigerated cases being filled to the max with food. In late 80s Soviet Russia, even in big cities like Moscow, there was jack shit available and everyone took what they could get(though many balked at the poor choices).

You are confused because you never been in empty Soviets stores.
Also besides been empty everything in USSR was extremely aesthetically offensive. Everything was gray, dirty, covered in some slimy mud, broken things like floor tiles or stores signboards everywhere not fixed for decades.
Fun fact: when import plastic bags with prints started to trickle into late USSR people used them as fashion bags, carrying them for years, washing if they git dirty etc. USSR was THAT gray and devoid of color, so plastic bags seemed as flash of life.
See Stalker movie, gulag the country.

It was the variety, apparently he and his wife joked with the Soviet interpreter about it who then explained it was a normal grocery selection and not staged.

The USSR was pretty fucked at that time and a lot of consumer products had left shelves over 20 years, something Soviets assumed was a global trend.
>>
>>530183273
>The USSR was pretty fucked at that time and a lot of consumer products had left shelves over 20 years,
No t fully left but unavailability of even products was common thing, such as beef, frozen chicken, sosages.
Soviets had specific term "*something* was thrown out in the counter". Meaning one if the mentioned deficit goods like frozen chicken arrived at store and they our them on couters and shelves. Then entire city block rushed to that store your make huge line and within hours it was gone. Walking into store and seen every shelf stuffed with all kind of product was indeed shocking sight for Soviet citizen.

China got big because the west especially USA exported modern industry to them and teaching them how to do it.

Heard a story from a Turk once in the late 70 hes father was a literal cheese merchant.
He would drive a truck to the border to USSR to sell it, once crossed.
The commie villagers would literally run and blockade it to try and force him to sell the cheese wheels at a premium even the cops and soldiers where on it.

Cause that was more reliable way for them to get to cheese it was that bad.

I knew Belgium soldiers also smuggle calculators and chocolate in particular that you could sell for 8x the price in Poland if they went on vacation and hid in their car doors.

True capitalism equates labor to a commodity and most "capitalists" won't admit it because they're actually crony capitalists who aren't worth a lickshit.
Really, "economics" in general is not an exact science and can't be pinned down to two dualism western existential political "philosophies". Both however center around the central idea that labor as a commodity is exploitation. Only one is retarded enough to treat that as a bad thing because it implies you actually have to be worth a bucket of piss as a human being wanting to attend this "society" they themselves exploit.

That was actually an historic moment in time. Yeltsin was Minister of Agriculture at the time. He was told American grocery stores were empty, just like they were in Russia. The Yank minders from the US State Dept. took him to that store, and Yeltsin believed it was bullshit. It was a put on. That's why he was laughing at the time. Russian staged full grocery stores for American visitors. Before he left the US, Yeltsin made an unscheduled visit to a random Piggly Wiggly he just happened to be driving by on the way to the airport. He barged, told all the State Department guys to get the fuck out of his way, he was going in no matter what. Yeltsin was figuring he would find it empty, but it was just like the one they showed him, fully stocked.

He felt betrayed by his own people. They lied to him when they told him the US had no food either. He became a disillusioned communist and the rest is history.

In communism there were no product variations and everything was always short and missing. To get stuff you usually had to bribe or spend your whole day hunting with special "vouchers". There is a board game in Poland called Kolejka, or "queue", where the objective is to complete your daily shopping. But its not so simple.
Communism is simply ideology for losers

Communism is oligarchy. The only way to get power is to sell your ass to ideological clique who control all society as everything is owned by party.

The Russian economy, especially agriculture was still hopelessly backward and inefficient even in the 80s and 90s so yes it was shocking to see a store fully stocked with every type of food you could imagine while in the average store in the USSR the shelves were always bare by the late 80s onward.

Communism simply never figured out the whole "food" thing. What's really crazy is that it was US industrialists and agriculturalists who built their economy in the 1920s and then the 1960s, but the Soviets always then let the system rot and stagnate, and in the 80s they didn't invite the Americans back in to fix everything for them.

During the soviet era the economy was controlled by the state.
Let's say a farmer produced 400 tons of wheat, it was then reported that he produced 500 tons, because it looked better.
Then the 400 tons of wheat, that was supposed to be 500 tons was milled to flour, it became 300 tons of flour but it was reported as 600 tons because it looked better.
Then it was calculated in an optimistic manner that from 600 tons of flour 1 200 000 bread loaves could be made and people received allowances for bread based on this number. In reality it was only enough for 400 000 bread loaves so most people didn't receive any bread even though they had a paper stating they they should receive a loaf of bread.
Further next year the farms weren't expanded because according to the numbers the production was sufficient, but in reality it needed to expand a lot.
Then when the soviets collapsed all of these problems remained but Jewish oligarchs purchased all land and equipment for pennies on the dollar and suddenly there was even less bread and absolutely nothing remotely exotic in the stores, people bought what little produce there was before the store employees could even restock the shelves. That's why Yeltsin was awed by American supermarkets.

Exactly this. Without constant feedback of a free market dynamics and unrestricted pricing, you cannot efficiently allocate resources or manage production capacity. Efficiency is a natural byproduct of free a market, it just happens, for free.
When humans think experts, beaurocrats and commitees can improve this dynamic by planning it always becomes less efficient and eventually fails because Human factors distort the self-correcting market forces.
Humans have emotions, lie, take bribes, don’t have all the data, wrong data, impose their arrogant ape-intellect onto nature, fall for groupthink etc. Expert panels always produce the worst decisions, thats also a law of nature, Never give them too much control over the economy. Any human should only control their own labour and production capcites where they have a personal stake thusly direkt responsibility over.
Look up the economic calculation problem.
The next arrogant human folly will probably be assuming AI can create a better economy than the free market. Spoiler: it can’t and wont.

Seems like that but not really.
Key takeaway
Both superpowers spent around ~1% of their economies on space at the height of the Space Race.
The US spent more publicly on prestige missions like the Moon landing.
The USSR spent a slightly larger share overall, but much of it went into military space infrastructure rather than headline missions.

Yeltsin, and most soviet people knew how the outside world worked and the availability of food and other goods, this was mostly a photo op to make the soviet collapse more politically attractive. Yelstin became president after the USSR collapsed.That photo was taken on september 1989, while the soviet union began its formal collapse in october of that year dissolving in 1991.
Soviet people were well aware of how the west operated, by 1989 the soviet economy had a huge black market of all sorts of goods from all over the world and private profit was allowed for a while by then

He was surprised not because it existed, but because it wasn't a planned propaganda stunt. Washington didn't put that small Texan grocery store there to fill it full of products. The grocery store was a genuine reflection of the success of the American capitalist system in providing for the every day man when compared to the Russian system. Yeltsin got reports and numbers, but Yeltsin was smarter than to take those at face value.

The real truth is that after we killed 8 million Russians in WWI and 7 million pidors died in their civil war and 27 million killed by Germans in WWII they had no one left who could sustain a socialist state.
They could never fill that hole together with 200 millions n abortions in the entire Soviet timeline.
They tried to compete militarily with the west on top of that and then the entire shit hole fell apart.

no group of women chases after slav cock. especially russian cock. it's why you filthy beasts have to rape constantly and why your men in the army constantly rape each other. if they had drones with video in WW2. you would probably gather around the christmas table every year to watch footage of your grandfather getting fucked in the ass by a fellow private before getting rekt by a nazi drone.

>to imply ussr didnt have dyed shopping bags is laughable.
Soviets had shopping bags, pragmatic and utilitarian. Like i said gray and gloomy, soviets starved for any color jumped on western plastic bags like africans jumped on glass beads during colonial trade. Of course for capitalist pig like you spoiled by capitalist abundance it looks completely alien and mind blowing. But such was life in the USSR.

>Can someone explain this picture here?
the soviet system was one big economic crisis

>it is possible in theory
No, it is not. Without monetary cost accounting, which socialism by definition abolishes, you cannot economize.

in soviet places only thing plentiful were the lines where you queued up to see if there is anything left to buy when you reached the end of it.

You basically had to stand in line to even get even the most basic things and then trade them for other things you needed that ppl were lucky enough to have acquired elsewhere.

> you really think Unilever's icecreams impressed them?
As high member of Soviet party he had access to "cпeцpacпpeдeлитeли" so no goods themselves didn't impressed him. What impressed him (and he wrote this memoirs) is abundance of goods in public access store for common people. Not in cпeцpacпpeдeлитeли store where only high party members could enter

BTW here catalog of such closed access soviet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryozka_(Russian_retail_store)
https://dzen.ru/a/YHaPCoPHWwa57GOb
This was considered luxury life in USSR only Gods Chosen people could enter these stores, common soviet people would be literally kicked out by guards if they tried to enter. Today you can buy all of that in any Russian supermarket... Just let this sink in for while....
