Goes down for a "W" for our side - oh, what a coincidence!

Not really- one of the reasons for our ever weakening economic position
is the Cold War.

Yes, just like in baseball, where it would be a 9-0 win.

The USSR's economy was destroyed by its internal problems. If the USSR
was running the Sahara, after the first 5 year plan there would be a sand
shortage.

Part of the reason the USSR's economy had "internal problems" was the fact
that it's military took up so much of it's resources,in an effort to
counter the West's technological edge by force of numbers.They also put a
lot of resources into stealing technology they could not obtain normally.
