What is one of the primary reasons for the collapse of socialist/communist economic systems, particularly in the soviet union? a. government failure to distribute resources effectively. b. the inability of the people to work as a group. c. lack of government oversight. d. profits got too high?

A. Government failure  to distribute resources effectively.

Although the foundation of a socialist/ communist nation is that of distribution of wealth equitably, governments, like the Soviet Union, failed  to ensure just that. Due to lack of poor decisions and corruption, a large gap started to form between the rich (bourgeoise)  and  the poor (proletariat). Thus, a mass struggle ensued, which in turn resulted in the collapse of the system.
