Wouldn't it be a hoot if the Russians, of all people, beat us at our own game.The Russians stole the BOMB from us.
They definitely beat us into space.
I salute them for stealing our flat tax idea and putting it to good use.
I'm sure former Soviet emmigrants might be contemplating a move back to the old country now that economic as well as political freedom have took root.

Yeah, maybe I should take my Granddaddy back to Volgograd and see if his ancestral home is still there and up for sale. But after two world wars and God-knows how many purges of the Volga Deutsch, it's probably long gone.

One of the central examples in Bernard Goldberg's best selling book "Bias" is a legendary hatchet job by CBS in "reporting" Malcom Forbes reform proposal for the exact same tax system now in place in Russia!
It is one of history's astonishing ironies that Marxism lives on in the DNC and the American media, while it has been utterly rejected in Russia.
