GARRY KASPAROV WRITES that Russia is relapsing, via instapundit
Illegal expropriation is becoming institutional policy. The Duma rubberstamps Putin decrees. In the criminal courts they have brought back an old Soviet law allowing the state to confiscate the property of the convicted. Not to be outdone, tax authorities can now seize money and property from corporations or individuals without a court decision.
Luckily that sort of thing can't happen here. *bobby fischer*
