    Upon further reading, it does seem I was mistaken in saying that the infrastructure built was miserable. However, in my case, it started spiraling downwards long before the capitalism took over.

      So the socialists built your infrastructure. And the capitalists stole it and never repaired it. And you lived only during the time where infrastructure was neglected by capitalists.

      But if the same infrastructure were under socialism, then, you assume that they also wouldn’t repair it. Therefore, the infrastructure would be the same in your what-if scenario as in real history.

      But that would be worse somehow?
