In the year 2006, those who control Russia's energy reserves control a huge portion of the world's energy market -- renewable energy is the future. And as you can imagine they're for sure not controlled by some newly born Russian millionaires -- a great benchmark for how vibrant a country's economy or level of corruption really is. Seems like the long-term effects of a planned economy are still a political doctrine, and the invisible hand of the market is still short enough to feel the Russian energy sector as Russian intelligence chief's son has been named adviser to oil company chairman :"A son of the head of Russia's main intelligence agency has been named an adviser to the chairman of state oil company OAO Rosneft, the daily newspaper Kommersant reported Wednesday, citing an unidentified source on Rosneft's board of directors. Andrei Patrushev, the 25-year-old son of Federal Security Service (FSB) director Nikolai Patrushev, had previously been an FSB official himself, working in the department that keeps tabs on the Russian oil industry, according to Kommersant."
The courage to rise above shown by Mikhail Khodorkovsky has its own butterfly effect, and it's so easily predictable one. Here's a Google bomb for you -- it means enemy of the people. Here's another. Враг народа or a vivid protectionist?
