Yeah . . . because that REALLY worked for the former Soviet Union, for Communist China -- that had to become mostly capitalistic or go belly-up, economically, -- and for Venezuela that now considers dumpster diving . . . a fine dinning.

No, while Russia had a period of War Communism after the revolution, where money was effectively abolished after it had been devalued, a form of wage labor in the state industries persisted, and did throughout the entirety of the Soviet Union’s existence — you still sold your labor for a wage, only the state was your employer, not a capitalist. Similarly, workers in China were provided a wage as they are today.
Slave labor is not the alternative to wage slavery, free labor is. This means free associations of producers owning socially the inputs and outputs of their labor.

Wrong. And BTW, my parents were both born in Poland in the early 40’s, taught in Russian, and fled communism in 1967.

So, again, you are more wrong than a broken clock that doesn’t work for 23 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds every day.

States like China or former Soviet republics were not communist.
All you’ve said are that your parents are from a former socialist republic and that I’m wrong.

You want a fair wage? If you have time to play on imgflip, you have time to get a second job. Quit being so lazy and expecting everyone else to bail you out.
