What’s funny is the amount of projection. It was military spending that bankrupted and ultimately ended the USSR, while leaving the population in poverty, starving.
Which is a surface level observation, as most of the “military spending” went into the pockets of the corrupt at every echelon of leadership. Everyone in power wanted to skim off of their alloted funding, which prevented it from actually being utilized as intended. Blaming the decline solely on military spending is a stretch, just like the other comment trying to compare the 1953 Soviet Union to Nazi Germany a decade prior.
America has fallen from the top 20 happiest countries because the senile leadership of Biden prioritized war profits over citizen welfare and infrastructure. The caricature here exemplifies that point but let’s get caught up over the pedantics of a failed nation instead.

And The same thing is happening in Russia again…

Biden is president for 4 years. I hope you are not so senile to think it started with him.
Biden signed the largest infrastructure bill in history, IIRC.

1953 is some 36/37 years before the eventual collapse of the Sovjet Union.
And you think what? That the military spending suddenly started in the 80s?
Of course it was before the collapse, they didn’t go bankrupt in a day.
