Very interested in learning about this scenarios that are usually not discussed as much as what you typically read from anti communists in the media.

    I've noticed a lot of my physics and higher mathematics professors are Russian and lived in the USSR for a good portion of their lives. I was curious about whether this was particularly common and why but hadn't really considered it too much until I saw your comment. Was higher education just particularly easy to obtain?

      It's probably because it was cheaper than going to the US, and they were doing top-tier science.
