      Nah, the relevant question is, “Did Boeing force the Soviets to make shitty planes?” If not, you can’t claim capitalism is the source of crappy planes.

          Obviously it’s a no to your question. Consider the point that the other person is making, though… Planes are bad sometimes regardless of whether they were built in capitalist or communist societies, so perhaps the root cause is not politics.
