If I had the bad fortune to end up in a gulag, I'd just be the one building it, meaning I'd have intimate knowledge of my own prison's architecture. Next, my guards would be former inmates, so they'd likely be more sympathetic towards me rather than our jailers. Oh, and I'd apparently have enough free time to sit around and read volumes of Communist theory. Finally, if I decided to not finish off my sentence, I could just... leave.

Yeah. Okay.
