Putin might want to rethink his warning about this being like 1917 in Russia.
Do average Russians even care who's in charge? I'm not getting the feeling they even want to stick around and find out who wins.
Can't say I blame them.
They went from a feudal monarchy to socialism to communism to dictatorship to (sort of) capitalism in less than one century. On top of that, two brutal international wars, an even bloodier protracted revolution and the iron fist of Stalin.
Can't blame them for seeing vodka as the most stable thing in the country.
