ABSTRACT
Colossal profits are made by foreigners under this regime, which punishes its own nationals with cruel severity if they attempt to make a profit that is ever so little above the average permitted in private enterprise. With foreigners, however, it is a matter of business. It is a matter of the concessions which Russia grants to foreign concessionaires, to enable them to drive a flourishing business in the country of Bolshevism. Lenin called this system economic copulation with the capitalists, and, in spite of the price it was prepared to pay to foreign enterprise, the Bolshevist regime anticipated great advantages from this policy, chiefly the influx of foreign capital into the poor country which needed this capital so urgently, combined with a strong impetus to its economic expansion. Model establishments were to be set up in this way, which would serve as an example to Russian economic activity.
