Although, under this so-called competitive socialism, the planning by the central authority would take somewhat more roundabout forms, its effects would not be fundamentally different, and the element of competition would be little more than a sham.
И хотя при «конкурентном социализме» планирование должно идти окольными путями, результаты его будут теми же самыми, а элемент конкуренции останется не более чем бутафорией.

Хотя она и не обзавелась друзьями в Хазарде из‑за того, что постоянно боролась за закрытие шахт и прекращение вырубки леса, все же Нетти была счастлива на своей земле, в отличие от Эдны.

There was an immense roundabout, a thousand millraces of darkness from which a single flame ignited near my mouth and one of the strange beasts cursed, seeing me, and shouted, "You, you scared her away!
