It's funny that the people that are trashing Sochi are the same ones who are demanding Socialism in the West.

Although the Soviet Union collapsed over 20 years ago, you can't just snap your fingers and change the country overnight (unfortunately). It's impossible to tear down cities and rebuild from scratch overnight.

I first came to Russia in 1992. The place was really screwed up. It is a paradise today compared to back then. Socialism/Communism saps the human spirit. It destroys the ability to think for yourself.

It will take years to undo what the communists spent 70 years doing. Look at how badly Obama screwed up America in 5 years. How long will it take to undo the damage of ObamaCare? How do you get people back to work after being on Government support for 5 years.

Substitute Soviet Union with Obama Administration.
