Loud Speakers




When the Bolsheviks took over Russia in 1917 there were several new technical innovations coming along to help governments communicate better with their people. All of Europe and the United States chose the telephone. This new technology facilitated an incredible burst of economic and political and human interaction. Everyone was able to communicate better. Families grew closer, businesses grew and reduced costs and the West prospered.

What about Russia? They chose another new technology. It allowed the central planners to communicate to the people but the people could not talk back. it was one way preaching and controlling by the central planners. It was pushed on the citizens. 



The Loudspeaker! They used it to push patriotic music, state focused propaganda and five year plans dreamed up by bureaucrats who never, ever asked the people what they needed or wanted. 

The US Federal Government is similar. They are always looking for loudspeakers. That way the agenda can be pushed by central planners, Comrade. Just fall in line and do what you are told.

In my visits to Russia it is easy to see why the USSR collapsed. The central planners thought they know what the people SHOULD have. They never, ever asked what the people wanted and, in fact, punished anyone that disagreed.
