"Run-down countries, environmental pollution, it didn't matter, people, animals, nature." Your description fits America and many other capitalist countries. Both capitalist and socialist countries have had run-down living areas and plenty of pollution, unfortunately, but at least in socialist countries, they had free education and healthcare. 1/5

"[In the West] there was also pollution, but people had food and were free and traded." People starve in America all the time. If you think that America is a land of no starvation, then you've been told a lie about America. According to "Feeding America," More than 47 million people in the US face hunger, including 1 in 5 children: https://www.feedingamerica.org/hunger-in-america 2/5
