    I did not realize the Soviets did this, but these posters shine a light on what must have been a widespread problem in the USSR.http://io9.com/these-soviet-anti-alcohol-posters-offer-a-lurid-view-of-451625435?rev=1363042508

    It is still a widespread problem in Russia today.  Heck, if I lived there now and was just a peon I would probably drink myself into oblivion too.

    Seems like Russia has a great deal of social problems.  I know the abortion rate is sky high there as well, and we have discussed the dangerously low birth rate as well.  I suppose if Communism had not fallen apart there, the USSR would have eventually fallen apart through other means.
