55/60 for women/men but the pension wasn’t exactly high. Life expectancy 65 for men, 74 for women. Population was still growing too. Retirement as a concept requires enough young people to serve the needs of the old.
Let’s do a better example, how much did living standards, health, happiness, and retirement age improve when socialism was implemented and monarchism was pushed out? How much did those metrics fall when capitalism was introduced?
Oh, dearie me, a pure seeker of knowledge. Sorry, it’s just that no one had mentioned the Soviet Union. And people usually bring up things that read like non-sequiturs when they want to establish a connection.
And I didn’t downvote. Yet. I usually wait to downvote until a commenter leaves little doubt that they’re a dickhead.
Nah fuck that you prove to me humanity can do an economy properly than we have a conversation. At this point we will all die before we ever have a proper economy. The greed of the few out weigh the needs of the many.
Holy shit you make a point and then lose reality. Why the fuck do you think those people were in poverty in the first place? You think what made them in poverty disappeared or was masked? There are still rich, poor and middle class. They have a broken economy because everyone has a broken economy.
What was the retirement age in the Soviet Union?

Over 90% of Chinese adults own their own home.
That’s not proof an economy works. That’s proof you can own a home.
800 million people lifted out of poverty in 40 years.

Calm down, big guy. I’m saying their economy is working waaaaay better than any western neoliberal capitalist structures.
Way better than trash is not something I would be proud of.
👍
A proper economy is one where the people who need things more pay more than the people who need them less. That’s how we know what things should cost.
So if someone needs a kidney, but someone richer also needs a kidney, they die?
