The Soviet Union had a totalitarian government, while the USA has a democratic government. Let me just explain real quick what exactly these words mean before I start saying which one worksand which doesnt. Totalitarian is a style of governemnt that is centralized, dictorial, and requires complete subservice to the state. While democratic is a system of goverment by the whole population/ all eligible members through a state, normally by a representative (basically a system in which the group or nation is controlled by the majority of its members). As you can hopefully see now, a democracy seems like the better deal, and it is. In my opinion a totalitarian goverment sounds closer to a dictorial system.

The United States has a capitalist economy unlike its rival at the time the Soviet Union who had a communist economy. The difference? Capitalism is a political and economic system in which a countrys trade and industry are controlled by privet owners, instead of the state. Communism, however, is just a theory, obtained from Karl Max, promoting class war and lending to a society in which all property is publicly owned and each individual works and is paid according to their needs and abilitys. Communism sounds better than capitalism on paper, but actually attemping to make it happen goes down in flames and wars break out.
