Joke for John Rabi
#3
My dad was back there about ten years ago doing more consulting on how to develop market systems, he said people in their 20s to 40s were pretty motivated and entrepreneurial but the older generation who came up under the old Soviet regime hadn't adapted to the new system. They were pensioned off as fast as possible, it was cheaper than keeping them on the job.

From the Hawaiian history I've been reading recently it sounds like Hawaii went through a similar changes of mindset and generational changes after the plantation system shut down.
