1. Agree. Want to add that Soviet Education Program was very wide but not deep. Kids after school theoretically know "a little bit of everything" but can't use their knowledge in their real life.
2. I'm wasn't lucky as you so I remember my 2 or 3 times in the hospitals in USSR. First one when I was just 5 years old and stayed without my mom 2 weeks in a hospital after appendectomy. I still remember how the nurce yeld to us, and how I cried when I looked in the window and wait my mom who brought me the homemade food because it was impossible to eat hospital's one.... and it's not only one story. It's too sad but my family had a lot of "bad" stories about soviet medical care.
3. You dad was a rich man. :))) My parents and grandparents were engineers. Our apartment was received by my grandfather from the Malyshev's factory. It was in 60th before I was born. It was 3 rooms for 9 people: my grandparents, my aunty and her family(2 adults and 2 kids), my parents with my brother.
Actually, I remember that my mother's salary was 210 rubles.
