You must be jokeing! I hardly think thet Stalin's USSR is what either Marx or
Engled invisoned. As for Lenin, I seem to recall him once saying that "our
workers state is deformed, the weight of burocracy is too great." It seems to
me that Stalin had more to do with creating burocracy in the USSR than anyone
else.

Every country recovered quickly after the war, not just the USSR. Anyway if
Stalin had not killed all of the Army's leadership, there would not have been
much to recover from in the first place.
