I heard it simply...
If you ever poke around google earth, some of the roads the Soviets built in remote Siberia look like they are pristine condition today even as they town is in a near-collapsed state.
The reason Western roads suck isn't that they are built badly, or with terrible materials. They are made too thin. Thin layers means lower bids, means cheaper roads, which ensures constant rebuilding.
