Stalin fleeced the Kuleks to pay for Americans to build factories just before WW2, after Ford's River Rouge industrial city was completed.
He did a good job on T-34 production, but around half of Soviet armaments came from the USA during WW2. The tanks were directly driven to the front - no parking lot needed! :)
Stalin is portayed as a monster because he was. But he was also the great leader his country needed at that time.
