During one of their famous MAYDAY parades there was a group of russian economists leading the pack of the usual military hardware & soldiers.
One western diplomat turned to his soviet counterpart and asked "Why are those men leading off the parade? They are not soldiers are they not?"
The russian official laughed and said "Nyet comrade they are not, indeed they are our most brilliant economists!"
Confused, the western diplomat asked "I dont understand, how & what do those economists have to do with the MAYDAY parade?"
The russian official laughed again and said "Because they are the MOST DESTRUCTIVE FORCE in our entire Soviet Union!!!"
That's good!
