They are glorified managers or subordinates who enjoy great wealth that can be taken from them at any minute, and the only way they know to secure their fortunes is to endear themselves to the state - to become cheerleaders for it. "Russia is ruled by the same people who own it," says Masha Lipman, a political analyst...

It's a seemingly endless landscape of Martian redness, and to be able to enjoy it all from a private Platinum cabin - while taking high tea served to you by a personal butler - is a curious lesson in the persistence and ingenuity of humankind...
...course. that’s all theoretical, but it holds up in practice. Countless managers (Joe Torre and Terry Francona are two) only began to enjoy a winning reputation after escaping their jobs managing perennial losers—and taking the reins for teams with true talent.
