http://utminers.utep.edu/trcurry/Corrections%20Data%20International.htm Nope, at least as of '95, Russia had 690 inmates per 100K, vs. 600 per 100K in AmeriKKKa. -- Michael Pugliese

-Howver, the old USSR had a smaller incarceration rate than both the USA and -post Soviet Russia (400 vs 280, according to E. Hobsbawn- Age of Extremes)
