Don't think for one second that the USSR was Communist. They weren't. It was fascism masking as communism. I think in reality thats all communism ends up being: Fascism with better Public Relations.

But economically it was still socialist, was it not?

I mean, people got payed low wages, the economy was crap. The USSR's economic peak was in Stalin's 5 year plan which was pretty bad.

Either way, they were not capitalist.
