But they would not be able to make these things without large amounts of
capital, direction, and supervision.
So who provides the capital and the supervision? Does the capitalist or
the party provide it. And if the party provides, it has to get the
capital somewhere, which it usually does by squeezing the peasants, with
the result that large numbers of peasants starve.
And party supervision, because Moscow is far away, results in shoddy
workmanship and ugly skyscrapers. "They pretend to pay us, and we
pretend to work"
