60% Of Russians Want USSR Back

From Pravda:
"Sixty Percent of Russians Nostalgic for Soviet Union"

It seems that today - the 18th anniversary of the collapse of the USSR - 60% of Russians polled said they want the old Union back. The majority that wanted the Soviet Union back were from one of the following groups: pensioners, female, rural, less than average education and all lived during Soviet times. I guess those with university educations, urban, young and male did not want a return to the "good old days."

This poll and anniversary highlight only the good of the USSR and not all the bad. Everyone knows that you tend to only remember the good times and not the bad and this seems to be the case here. Hopefully, the Soviet Union has it once was will never come back into existence.
