Are you sure? That the Soviet Union wasn't any workers' paradise doesn't
prevent Russian workers from comparing the current economic collapse with
what existed before and judging the latter favorably, without any illusions.

Desperate Russian workers might be forgiven for thinking:

"Bring back socialism!"
"We never had socialism!"
"Bring back what we had, then!"
