Assertions are free, but facts are stubborn. The Soviet Union moved millions of peasants into factories in the 1930s, the country's decade of massive industrialization. As cited earlier in this thread, the work week was about 41 hours, comparable to the U.S. at the time, not driven to 60 and 70 hours a week as in China today. Anthony lists four other countries as examples of his assertion. Fine. But a counterexample on the order of tens of millions of workers still breaks the assertion.
