Socialist Living Standards
Cal Berkeley professor Robert Reich claims that leaders like New York Democrat mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani will “fight to make life affordable for working people.”
IN FACT, Mamdani embraces the defining economic policies of the Soviet Union, which was wracked by poverty. As documented in the academic serial work Quality of Life in the Soviet Union, the “living standard” there in 1976 “was roughly one third that of the United States.”
