Thank you for your efforts to get the truth about Communist Russia out to the public.
Yep. Those are very tough people. I read about the siege of Leningrad during World War II, if you haven’t, you probably
would enjoy it.
Read, The 900 days, imagine being under siege for over
two years. The USA has been through nothing like it.
It still is, at least in cities with functional economy. Still true for the federal workers in Vorkuta right now. I believe a cop in Vorkuta was paid no less than his NYC counterpart in 2013. And he has a right to retirement ufter just 10 years of working in such a place. The same goes for the military personnel although the pay is slightly lower than in low enforcement.
Civilians had it near as good until the economy worked.
I bet a person an article written above used to have European vacation twice a year.
There are booms and busts and it is not unique to Russia. Every country has such cities.
