“United Russia acts as both player and referee by setting or changing the rules as it chooses. Liberals have been outraged by this flagrant violation of democratic principles, but most people are openly indifferent- and rightly so. After all, what difference does it makes for us if the rules of the political game are fair or unfair when the game itself bears no relationship to our lives and when we find the whole spectacle deeply offensive? In the end, the people are the main prize for the candidates. The election winners get to order us around, to rob us and deceive us.”
-Kagarlitsky Back in the USSR
