Putin is the best thing that has happened to Russia since time immemorial. which says something about what transpired before him i guess. he's a vast improvement on the drunk that held the reins previously, and being an ex KGB guy he presumably has files on enough people to successfully parade any challenges to his power that might arise. he also happens to be popular with Russian voters, since Russia's economy is booming ever since he took over. oil prices? important, but not the whole story. consider this: the Russian tax laws basically consist of one sentence: "everybody is to pay a 13% flat tax".
