The oligarchs are not Horatio Alger stories. This is the Bank of New York, Marc Rich, ex-KGB, Russian Mafiya crowd. They didn't create wealth--they stole it. Now they are hiring muscle to protect it.

According to the State Department's travel advisories, the Russian business environment consists of extortion and corruption. American businessmen there often hire private security to prevent their being kidnapped.

The wealth of Russia is owned by mobsters called the Russian mafia. They were aided and abetted in their robbery of Russia by BONY, Mark Rich and the others.

Very few people in the US understand that the communists stole from the czarists the single biggest treasure/money pile that had ever been accumulated up until that time.

It made the crown jewels and the english royalty look like a bunch of pikers, relatively. No trace has ever been found, though I suppose the commies used it to spread destruction for the next 60 years or so..

So true. Marc Rich et al are the worst kind. BTW, was there any group, or special interest that signed on with Lenin to sponsor the Bolshevik revolution?
