"so the russians going broke trying to keep up with our defense spending had nothing to do with the collapse of ussr"
The USSR was always a fake empire, like the Wizard of Oz. Nothing behind the curtain, unsustainable.
What collapsed the USSR was not St Ronnie the Diseased saying "Mr Gorbachev, tear down this wall",
nor William Gates' "sexed up" CIA do ents lying about USSR strenghts to comply with Repug/neo-c*nt political objectives,
nor St Ronnie's Stars Wars Missile Defense (which doesn't ing work after $5B/year wasted for 25 years)
nor John Rambo.
The USSR collapsed:
1. It invaded Afghanistan in 1980, HUGELY expensive, and HUGELY unpopular with the unpaid troops and their families.
2. At the same time, the Iranian Revolution caused an oil price e that caused a world-wide recession + inflation, causing a collapse of oil demand and oil prices. Oil was Russia's only source of hard US dollars (the sold oil to international market and were paid in US$, not non-exchangeable rubles).
The Repugs and neo-c*nts have been lying for 20 years, as is there wont about all of history. Those mother ers wouldn't tell the truth if their lives depended on it.

so it wasn't reagan's magical incantation at the berlin wall that caused the collapse ?
The Repugs and neo-c*nts wanted to transfer taxpayer wealth to the MIC, so William Gates faked the strength of the USSR as a basis for the US military build-up.
Gates' lie was exposed when the al- ing-mighty USSR collapsed into the ashbin of history.
Gates has always been a suckup, starting the CIA's faking of intelligence, rather than real intelligence, to match the political objectives of his bosses.
