The USSR was NOT economically Communist. - OmegaLogos - 08-20-2017 Explanation: This will be very quick and simple ... Economic Communism MEANS ... EVERYBODY [including the babies] get PAID the SAME amount regardless. This is self evident and obvious and if you can't see it then I suggest that you are economically blind. The USSR was NOT economically communist and here is my singular shitty proof quote sourced from wiki .... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Komarov And here is the actual quote ... Quote: By 1962, Komarov was the third highest paid cosmonaut, due to his qualifications, rank and experience. He earned 528 rubles a month, with only cosmonauts 1 and 2 Yuri Gagarin and Gherman Titov being more highly paid. Personal Disclosure: I don't expect many replies because what can you say in the face of such evidence, except to agree!?

Here you go Dear Mystic Wanderer. 528 Russian Ruble equals 8.931 US Dollar. RE: The USSR was NOT economically Communist. - OmegaLogos - 08-21-2017 Explanation: That is under current ruble to U$D exchange rates ... it was different in the 60's ... but not by much ... 1962 Ruble to USD convertion website. Quote:1962 Russian Rubles or 1962 RUB to USD: = 33,26 US Dollars By rate: 0,01695 Personal Disclosure: I hope that helps. EDITED: Gah ..the above information is WRONG .... I made a mistake and the website fooled me by making me think 1962 was the year ..not rubles. PLEASE IGNORE THIS POST! P.S. trying to find economic information more than 10years old on the web is very hard :( IF I do find a proper converter I shall post again. SORRY :( RE: The USSR was NOT economically Communist. - Ninurta - 08-22-2017 Quote:What cost $8.931 in 1962 would cost $72.01 in 2016. Inflation Calculator As I recall, in 1962, my dear old dad was making $90.00 a month working in a factory. Therefore, highly paid cosmonauts in Russia made a little less than the average American factory worker in those days. Keep in mind, however, that the prices of products were probably tightly controlled by the state in the Soviet Union, so a Russian Cosmonaut salary may have stretched a little further than an American factory worker's wages, per egg and slice of bread. . |
