 "People can also send positive letters to President Vladimir Putin," he says. "He's trying to mobilize anti-corruption forces, but the raiders are so pervasive that he needs grassroots support. Putin has stabilized the Russian currency, and gotten rid of the daily racketeer-style murders, but white-collar corruption is so widespread that stopping it is like trying to plug up the dikes in Holland.
"We're confident we'll win. We hope our victory is a catalyst to never give in to racketeers. We need to cure this disease once and for all so that Russia can achieve the prosperity it's destined for. They've got a low population and high education and lots of resources. They just have to get rid of this crap. Putin can't do this by himself—he needs grassroots support. They're fighting rock'n'roll this time." |
