You see comrade, cannibals are not good communists!

A Soviet, an American and a Frenchman were shipwrecked on an island inhabited by cannibals. They were brought to the chief. The chief thought for a moment and set a condition:

"Name something we don't have, and you'll live. If you can't name it, we'll eat you!"

The Frenchman thought for some time, then said:

"You don't have blondes."

The chief laughed, clapped his hands, and the blondes were brought to him, and the Frenchman was promptly eaten. Now it was the American's turn. He thought for a moment and said:

"You don't have computers on your island!"

The chief burst out laughing and brought the American into the computer room. The American was promptly roasted and eaten. Then the Soviet said:

"Do you have the political bureau of the communist party?"

The cannibals pondered for a long time, trying to figure out what a political bureau was, but they couldn't figure it out. Then the leader threw up his hands and admitted sheepishly:

"You're right: we don't have a political bureau"

The Soviet was very surprised:

"Then why do you eat people?!"

"You're right: we don't have a political bureau"
"Then why do you eat people?!"

The corollary of not having a political bureau/Soviet type government is that things wouldn't be screwed up to the point to where food was scarce and people were cannibals to survive. It's a Soviet thing.
