Abstract
The Soviet State is the exclusive exporter and importer and almost the only trader within the country. Receiving grain, vegetables, dairy products, hides, wool, etc. as taxes from the kolkhozes, and having at its disposal all industrial products, the state cannot be bankrupt. And, conversely, it can take any profit it likes since it sets prices freely.
