After 20 years in power, Putin looks weaker than ever

[Gaon]

Yep.



And it is a compelling and persuasive argument.

That would never work in Russia.

It seems to be. He has become a dictator, just like all the others.

Not all dictators are the same and not all selfish monsters..



Lee Kuan Yew was definitely authoritarian, but he made his country more prosperous..



The same thing could be said of General Park in South Korea, Augusto Pinochet in Chile and Suharto in Indonesia..



They are very different than Mugabe in Zimbabwe or former Libyan dictator Qaddafi.

Just because he has prevented Russia from being bought lock, stock, and barrel by prog billionaires like the West has. does not make the brother another Ferdinand Marcos.

It's hard to say if his leadership has overall been positive or negative for his country..



Gaon can probably answer that better than the rest of us.

I believe some countries really believe in punishment, but not rehabilitation..



Taiwan is a rich country, but I've heard it's penal system is very harsh.

USA is one of them..



They dont want these guys to quit because that would mean they run out of customers in their privatized prison system.

I like how Putin takes some of the reporters and LGBT crew to the cleaners..



We should do the same here.

Why aren't people wanting to migrate to Russia if it's better there than in the USA?

Russia has a lot of immigrants. Gaon will tell you that.

I'm sure there are, especially from nearby countries. We just never hear people wanting to move to Russia from all over the world.

Russia can be a hostile working environment for an american or canadian..
