SAGE
- can't own a car, only 1 in 7 families had a car (probably connected)
- Have to pay out bribes to get any decent services, everything is government-owned.
- can't buy food, because prices are fixed and it leads to shortages EVERYWHERE EVERYTIME
- can't buy meat and butter, they have magically disappeared from gov-t owned shops (every shop is gov-t owned)
- can't win arms race against US because oil prices dropped and Soviet ecomony is a joke and always was
- can't win technology race, because everything is TOP SECRET, and one department in the same university does not know what other departments do
- collapse.
