If you want to engage in irrelevant tit-for-tat examples about communism, Strawman, I need say only one thing - look at Russia today and compare it with the old USSR. Your beloved market economy, replete with private law enforcement (ie the Mafia), has pushed millions into poverty. No doubt you'll say that all those people sleeping on the streets in minus 40 degrees are at least "free to choose". That may be true, but do you think they care? The fact is that communism clearly trumped the market economy in that part of the world when it came to "delivering the goods".

But my point is not about communism - its about socialism. If you don't know the difference, you should go back and enrol is a first year polsci course at uni.
