It’s really simple:

Capitalism vs socialism is well demonstrated in Boeing B-29 vs Tupolev Tu-4

Socialism can’t create it. They copy it.

We shipped the Soviets an awful lot of trucks in WWII to help them mobilize their army....in addition to canned food. The US produced 2,382,311 vehicles excluding tanks and spgs....the Soviets just 197,000.

The Soviets produced about 50,000 T-34s....we produced around 49,000 Shermans.

The difference being we also produced 300,000+ planes while the Soviets produced ~136,000.

The US produced 6,771 large ships, plus 35,000 landing craft....the Soviets, around 79 ships of all types.

US GDP by 1945 was 1,474 compared to the Soviets at 343.

Simply put....we would have overwhelmed the Soviets in a war.

Capitalism would have spanked Socialism.
