No it is not. You tried to imply that communism makes countries poor. I argue the opposite. It's the fast track to industrialization. Under ludicrous free market rules, "every nation plays to its comparative advantage" so in the end, poor 3rd world countries in Africa that have a comparative advantage in agriculture due to a backwards industrial base are ludicrously told, "don't develop your technology, keep farming instead, just import our technology"!
In fact, it is the free market forced onto developing countries too early by the West that keeps them poor.
