By the other hand, education is probably the best thing in socialism. I'm from Southwest Europe and I know some russians living here that sent their kids to study in their home country, Russia. They say that subjects for 9th grade here, are learned during 6th in Russia. Is very common in my country that kids from Eastern Europe that still made some schooling there are the best students in their class/school.
Making a fast analysis, historically, US colleges are/were full of professors from communist countries..
If that's true, why has it produced such incredibly mediocre end results across the world?
Outside of an extremely small number of countries, socialism-tilted education systems have been complete failures at leading to superior results for people, economy, innovation, and so on.
Or you could make the argument that sometimes the good parts of socialist education systems has compensated for the crappy economic system and the capricious dictatorships.
The Soviet Union could not have produced the science and engineering it did without very good education -- in certain, protected pockets. A lot of it was ideological crap but if your university students arrive on the first day with a basic knowledge of calculus, you can teach them proper physics right away.
