As for why, it's basically the same reason that slaveowners in the antebellum south didn't let their slaves travel to the north: not many of them would come back. | |
| Jun 30, 2015 at 23:54 | comment | added | Greg | It wasn't only for the Soviet-union. All eastern block countries restricted travel / access to passport and currency for the citizens. Same true for most current dictatorships, too. | |
