Putin -- The Czar of all the Russias


Putin has seen the passage of changes to the Russian constitution that will allow him to be president of Russia until 2030s or so.
This basically makes him elected dictator of Russia, something that Canada is very familiar with every time Canadians vote in a majority government.
The difference here is that Putin has obtained the changes, but it will not necessarily dismiss him as dictator or even "Czar" of Russia.  What this does is it gives him room to manouver himself to become just that, before his terms in office are finished.
Ever since this man came to power I was weary of him and saw him crave the power that he now has, but he is not finished.  He will become Czar as it may seem until he dies.  That is what he wants and even though everyone can see it, no one has the ability nor the desire at the present time to oppose him and challenge him in any election that may take place.
It is not a fare comparison, but it seems that as long as the average Russian has a bottle of Vodka in one hand and some domestic live stock in the other to "fuck", the average Russian is content to wallow in his own shit and not care who runs the country.
As I say, it's not a fare thing to say, but it seems to be true, and can be applied to the apathy of many nations including Canada, and even the United States.  Not a fare statelment, but it appears to be so true when it comes to the apathy seen as election time.
