What do the 10 most polluted places in the world have in common?

If you said places with weak government controls over the economy you would be wrong.

If you said places plagued with unfettered free markets, you would be wrong.

Chernobyl, Ukraine

Dzerzhinsk, Russia

Kabwe, Zambia

La Oroya, Peru

Linfen, China

Norilsk, Russia

Sukinda, India

Tianying, China

If you said they are all current or former Socialist Paradises, you would be correct.
