Not all economic systems are the same. The economic system of the USA differs greatly
from the system of the USSR. The American system is based on private enterprise with private
ownership of the means of production, while the Russian system is communistic and is based
upon the principles of Karl Marx, the 19th century political economist. The economic ideologies
of these two nations contrast very strongly.
