Explanation:

In this text, we learn about some of the advantages and disadvantages of the economic systems found in the Soviet Union and the United States. The Soviet Union had a communist system, while the United States has a capitalist system. In capitalism, constant growth is necessary, which means that producers often want to increase sales in any way possible. One of the ways in which this was done was by producing objects, such as houses, that were built poorly so that they would not last long and sales of houses continued to increase.
