Indeed. The average Russian sells *himself* out for a dollar because 
that's all the state ever allowed him to own.
Today, he doesnt even own that.

It always amazes me that people are so surprised when they encounter 
greed, corruption, political propaganda, incompetence et al...why 
WOULDN'T seriously rich people, corporations, and fascist totalitarian 
states lie cheat bribe corrupt blackmail and murder?

Its way easier than being competent open and honest.

Even all these peole trying to off the donald with extreme prejudice are 
so incompetent they cant hit him even after the secret service have 
politely ignored them crawling on roofs.
