So not only were your people fearing any sort of rebellion against the Soviet, but they also embraced the power to attack those who were in a better situation prior to the takeover. I am surprised enough people got the power to change your form of government, based on the fact that it sounds like the lower-class was happy to follow as long as it meant they were in a position of power.

Very interesting that people would fall for such a trick, but I guess the lower class had other motives. We get cheap sausages and revenge on the upper classes, so who needs freedom? Sure, we might be killed without fair trial, but if we behave we get cheap sausages! Keep quiet and you can get some mass-produced sausages for a lower cost, ah those were the good days! If only we could go back to the times when we were being bribed and risked possible death, I miss those sausages.

Politics always are long and complicated, so it is no surprise. I find it interesting that something as cheap and easy to produce as sausages could hold the peoples' interest for decades and is possibly a reason why they might lapse back into such a form of government.
