This reminds me of another Soviet jokes I've heard. It goes something like this:

An American tells a Russian that the United States is so free he can stand in front of the White House and yell, “To hell with Ronald Reagan.” The Russian replies: “That’s nothing. I can stand in front of the Kremlin and yell, ‘To hell with Ronald Reagan,” too.

I'd like to add a joke from the Soviet era as well:

At a kindergarten in Moscow, a teacher asked her students, "Where do the happiest children live?" The children replied, "In the Soviet Union!" Then she asked, "Where do children have the best toys?" The children replied again, "In the Soviet Union!" The teacher then noticed a child crying at the back of the classroom. She asked him what the matter was, and the child replied, "I wish I could live in the Soviet Union."
