I feel like an assumption I come up against a lot with liberals is that the USSR had basically the same ownership class structure and wealth distribution that similarly developed capitalist classes had. I tried Binging this but don't have a good sense of what authors to trust.

    In the early 20th century, income inequality in Russia was especially high (the top 10% income share was close to 50%)

    isn't the current US way worse than this?
