If you think the USSR was murdered and didn't just collapse due to its own gross mismanagement, you've been on .ml for too long.
What do you believe happened? It's pretty clear that right up until it's dissolution, the majority of the public had no idea it was going to collapse, nor did they want to replace Socialism with Capitalism. The majority of ex-soviets still claim it was better under Socialism than it is under Capitalism.
