Naw, Moscow has some pretty terrible skyscrapers. It's like they couldn't decide on a style so built knock offs from around the globe. Personally I find it to be one of the tackiest skylines anywhere.

Fair enough given that there wouldn't be any skyscrapers if not for capitalism.

Seriously, what does anything about skyscrapers have to do with capitalism like it's a bad thing? How can you be a skyscraper fan and hate the thing that makes them possible?
