Russia's Crime of the Century
Does anyone really trust Russia? Or China? Or N. Korea? Or most of Africa? Or any country where the government is sufficiently closed and non-democratic?<p>Look at how slanted, jaded, corrupt and inept the US gov't has become and we have much more visibility into those dealings. Not to mention a refresh of power every so often and bloodless changeovers of power. I can't imagine living in a place where you actively fear your government...<p>One thing I always say to myself when I start to really rail on the US/AU/UK/Can etc is that they are still orders of magnitude better places to live than Russia, China or other places of the sort.
