for Thought and Information: AAH! or "UGH!"-?, More About the Man, Vladimir Vladimirovitch Putin
Comment: Well,
whatever anyone thinks about him, good or bad or somewhere in the
middle, he is taking Russia backwards, to its dismal soviet era past,
not forward. And all we hear from him, as to his rational for all that
he is doing:
are the tired old sour big propaganda mass lies of the communist era....'the evil west', 'evil America', etc, are 'forcing him', to.. 'defend Russia', etc, etc, etc,. ad nauseam.
But who are paying for his militaristic adventures? ...the common Russian people, [ and thus too, all the other non-Russian ethnicities, -which actually outnumber the ethnic Russians now, living inside of his Russian Federation, ever expanding borders, too] especially the old and the poorer uneducated classes, and the far-flung rural Russians, while, ignorant of factual history [ not the soviet lie version], many of the current younger generation, [ poor deluded fools!], are mindlessly cheering him, as the old saying puts it so well: '"Everyone loves a parade!", [ just like the mindless hypnotized German throngs hailed their dear national savior, Adolph Hitler, not that long ago in history],
while many of the younger better educated ones, [ and those who have the monetary means to do so, which many poorer, barely making ends meet from day to day, Russians do not have, i.e. they cannot afford to emigrate anywhere!, and who have learned a foreign language or two] are rapidly fleeing their beloved native land, seeing there, no good future for themselves or their children, and are going for refuge (once again!) to evil America and to the evil 'west', actually to....ANYWHERE!.... but.... Putin's captive neo-soviet Russia!
Most ethnic Russians too, who live in large numbers, in the bordering former soviet-satelite nations, want to stay there, where their lives are freer and generally better, and they do not want to move to Putin's Russia, except to visit their relatives from time to time.
How history seems to constantly repeat itself.

P.S. A hand held protest sign, in the official soviet Russian days, from not that long ago:
"I would rather be dead, in a 'capitalist hell', than alive, in a 'socialist workers' paradise'!"
Mr. Putin is struggling to restore that, 'socialist workers' paradise'.
GOD SAVE US ALL!
