If you really think the stalinist USSR was any worse than modern capitalism I'd highly like to you to look at the plight of third world countries and the post colonial ties that have caused famine,war and chaos in many of them for over 100 years. Western capitalism is built off the abominable conditions it creates, at least the USSR had a measurable improvement and a move away from the horror of the 30s in the 50s.

And why pretty much every Soviet citizen would have killed for a business trip (leisure trips very pretty much impossible) to even the poorest third-world country?
