Funny, because data shows almost the exact opposite. Conditions in Ex-Soviet countries were worse for decades after the collapse, and some of them still haven’t returned to pre-collapse levels. The majority of people in the majority of former USSR republics hold positive memories of the Soviet Union, and majorities even believe that life was better when the Union was around.
