One hundred years ago, a rag-tag army of military officers and civilians like these men overthrew the Czar in Russia and established what was known as the USSR, United Soviets Socialist Republic. In November of 1917. One hundred years later that revolution has completely unraveled. The USSR is now a collection of bickering states with a population half of ours and a GNP 15% of ours. It has devolved back to an autocracy. While it is true that the United States has lots of problems and we do a lot of stumbling, you only stumble when you are progressing forward.
