The main limiting resource of Russia is the human potential

I look at the pretty, smart Mikhail Khodorkovsky and I think: why are such people in prisons (and if not in prisons, then they are not in demand, they didn’t like the electorate), but with power - either horseradish, or radish, if not Putin, then Medvedevs ... as we have in Ukraine - either a rural accountant, or urban leadership ... and as for China, I remind Kipling, that we are not Chinese. We will not, like the Chinese, work hard for a hundred dollars and consider a new bicycle to the height of well -being.

There may be constructive authoritarianism - these are old thoughts that democracy is impossible in Russia, and the best form of government enlightened absolutism. I will not make links to the author of this idea, but it was written by Voltaire.
Maybe create a semblance of a Roman club in Russia so that the best minds of the former USSR offer new development models in the post -Soviet space?

Good correct article. But here is an excerpt from the article:
“However, today's world market in modern technologies is very tough and competitive.”
The high technology market is spacious, huge, interesting ... And the most antimonopoly (as it may seem to anyone). It is dynamic and full of possibilities. And now in the future.

AvtoVAZ has long become a measure of unprofessionalism of our “effective managers”. And there were no experiments to save and improve the production of cars on it. The "perestroika" of the plant lasts almost since the death of the USSR. And all wasted. The amount of money, who was pushed into this “bucket with bolts”, is growing every day; Car quality does not improve; Production is not modernized. Only moans from the shores of the Volga are heard: Uncle Volodya, give me more money!

Power stepped on the rake again

The Russian political system devours itself. Can it be otherwise in conditions when parties come to life only on the eve of the elections? But even at these moments it is completely incomprehensible, whose interests they are. With the exception of EP - unification of privileged bureaucrats. Future Duma elections will lead this level of power to a single denominator.

I can’t say that I “knew” Israel Gelfand - it will be immodest. Let's just say, I talked with him several times. I affirm: this man knew how not only to say sharpness, but also amazingly patiently, carefully listen. Including the nonsense that the interlocutors carried. And as to the causticity of the formulations, after the interlocutor is reprimanded, you can’t take this from Israel Moiseevich. But only after. THEM. Never shut his mouth to anyone.
Here is one of his statements made in a fairly narrow circle in Soviet times: “When everyone built the pyramids, the Jews fought. When everyone rushed to fight and forbade Jews to fight, the Jews began to trade. When everyone rushed to trade and forbidden to trade Jews, Jews began to engage in science like me. I wonder what will happen when everyone rushes to engage in science and ban the science of Jews? I can't come up with anything! " As said in the epitaph at Newton’s grave: “We will thank the Lord for the fact that such a great decoration of the human race once existed.”

Legislative pill

A striking business! I believed that new laws must certainly undergo a corruption test. Otherwise, all of us have a moral right to say: President Medvedev let us dust in the eyes, there is no talk of any struggle against corruption.
In the old days, so that the slave did not run away, the Achilles tendons were cut to him. What to call what the ruling click does with his people? Mengel was a clear enemy, he did not hide his intentions. Our vivisectors in Armani costumes with hours for € 26 thousand are trying to hide their aspirations behind external liberal rhetoric. I am deliberately not saying - they are hiding, they have long been at a time.

History will be repeated while belief in the unity of the country and the state. The interests of the authorities are presented as the interests of the people, and you have to pay dearly for this misconception. Pay freedom.
