What Vladimir Lenin, the Legendary Leader of the Communist Revolution (Bolshevik Revolution 1917), had done / had not done, for the erstwhile Soviet Union are worth analysing , without Capitalist or Communist bias, and worth reading for those who have a view that this Capitalist World is really abominable, and is to be trashed, if some viable humane alternative socio-economic system can be found and implemented without bloodshed and tyrannical oppressions. In a few blog posts of mine, made here earlier, I have made one such beginning. Today's trigger: Click here to go to https://www.spectator.co.uk/2017/03/how-lenin-manipulated-the-russian-revolution-to-his-own-ends/#, to study some critical analyses on the subject. More are to come from this donkey also. This link contains an article titled "How Lenin manipulated the Russian Revolution to his own ends' by Roland Elliott Brown, which is readable. The writer Mr. Brown says "He even viewed the starvation of countless peasants as a ‘progressive element’ in weakening the Tsar, says Victor Sebestyen (a review of book authored by Sebestyen, says)".
This article starts with viewing Lenin as a 'demagogue'. Meaning, as per Google Inquiry: "...a political leader who seeks support by appealing to popular desires and prejudices rather than by using rational argument. ...".
ybrao-a-donkey's views which are not intended to be imposed on others:
Even Capitalism, MNCs, the American Government (not necessarily the Trump's Administeration, we can even say 'starting with George Washington'), the Euro Governments do the same thing, i.e. they try to appeal to popular desires and prejudices rather than by use rational argument. The only difference is Marketing does not concentrate much on "satisfying popular wants (My Economics Text book in my XI Standard School days, started with 'human wants', 'necessities, comforts, and luxuries' and progressed into Consumer Behaviors)", but on the 'luxuries of those who have the moolah to purchase'. Had there not been a system called 'Voting Parliaments/Assemblies' every four or five years, the Governments would not have even bothered about popular desires and / or prejudices. Anyway that is a term affair of 4/5/10 years affair. In their daily routine, Capitalist Governments want to 'maximise their income', like the proverbial monopolyist's equilibrium in the Smithsonian Economics or the Classical Economics.
Principal Object of Modern Governments i.e. their raison d'être/ˌreɪzɒ̃ ˈdɛtrə,French ʀɛzɔ̃ dɛtʀ/ -the most important reason or purpose for someone or something's existence.
The need and greed of any Government worth its salt in this World will be to maximise its tax collections, and the Governments will not mind to pay millions to those Experts and Consultants who can invent new ways to introduce new taxes, bring in newer groups of citizens into the tax net, how to raise tax rates without making the Citizens to feel that their blood is being sucked.
What is Smithsonian Economics?
For those Readers who are interested in studying the features of Smithsonian Economics, here is one link to download a pdf: Click here to download a pdf of Reflections on Smithsonian Economics.
LENIN'S AND STALIN'S ADMINISTRATIONS CANNOT BE EXCEPTIONS
Lenin's and Stalin's Administrations cannot be exceptions because RUNNING ADMINISTRATIVE STRUCTURES WITH ALL THEIR concomitant Fads, Idiosyncrasies, Mansions, Cars, Paraphernalia, Regalia, Statues and what not, need investments and maintenance. Huge Police Hierarchies are needed to save the Top Gods Ruling the Administration, whether in Capitalist Countries or in (untruly) Socialist Countries.
