The great drama of Russian history has been between its state and society. Put simply, Russia has always had too much state and not enough society (Russian Society Quotes)
You know, I used to live in Russia where you had officers in the military opening up the warehouses at night and taking weapons out and putting them into a truck and selling them to foreign powers.
