  • The Soviet Union defeated the invincible German army because it created a superior economy
  • Uncle Joe borrowed his war preparation plan from FDR
  • Only US-inspired liberal shock therapy prevented the new Russia from capitalizing on the American post-WW II experience of turning a highly militarized economy into a prosperous consumer oriented one
  • First Russian oligarchs enriched themselves by plundering the resources accumulated since Stalin’s times - forgetting dropping oil prices.

    A good article. It's amazing to think how many people believed in the good of q
    communism. Russia had an hierarchy, officers and generals in defence, scientists, industrialists, politicians, top spies. And they all worked to defend communism.

    I will have to check out Russia Insider more.
