    I have no idea what it was in Soviet Union but other countries have a variety of foods and candy made by local companies and people that ate those in those days and eat current ones say the quality is worse. This is backed up by the companies changing the recipes and ingredients. Though this basically happens everywhere now. 100k is fairly cheap other countries and capitals costs way more than 100k. I doubt you would get something like that even in the cheaper boroughs.

    I can’t say older people mentioned food was higher quality which might be true due to how modern companies minmax the quality of it for profit and housing market today does feel slavelike. It’s probably overall better due to more freedoms but not as good as it should be due to corruption and lobbying.

    Communism isn’t the issue the same way Capitalism isn’t the issue, the issue is rich people abusing working class and poor people. Removing democracy from these systems just make them absolutely horrid in the long run. Also China isn’t communist it’s state capitalist dictatorship.

    That never happened in a lot of ex soviet countries. Not saying that type of communism was good but there were enough positives under that system where normal people benefited in some ways and that is why a lot of older people remember those days fondly even if they were just normal unconnected wokers.
