The USSR had more doctors per capita than any capitalist nation. This is because the tuition that medical students have to pay is a far bigger barrier than being "poorly" compensated for their contribution to society. Why do we just take random guesses as to why "communist" states fail?

(Note: Bouzane's last sentence bolded by myself.)

Guys and girls of the VG Chartz forums, 

Allow me to summarize my opinion on why Communist/Socialist/Fascist/Totalitarian/Government Led Economies fail sooner than later....

These economic & political systems ultimately fail because of: human nature.  HUMANS, BY NATURE, LUST FOR LIBERTY AND FREEDOM.

NOBODY WANTS TO BE A SLAVE TO ANY GOVERNMENT, POLITICAL IDEOLOGY, OR SOME LEADER WITH ABSOLUTE POWER, OR ANY LEGISLATURE THAT IS MERELY FOR SHOW...
