Americans learn only from catastrophe and not from experience. -- Theodore Roosevelt
My life has become a single, ongoing revelation that I haven’t been cynical enough.

Let's also remember what happened when Russia decided to follow through economic reforms suggested by the West. The rise of the oligarchs.

Also, South Korea industrialized thanks to massive amounts of state involvement. It's the reason why we now get our electronics from there, instead of it remaining a backwater appendage to China (well that and massive amounts of US aid).

It's like you google until you find some site, however minor, to support what you want. No snipers were shooting from the US embassy you conspiracy kook.
Anyway, you completely missed the point. Russia never had a serious democracy, as the 93 constitutional crisis demonstrated. Of course, you are going to blame this on the west, despite the fact that russia has NEVER had a truly democratic leader in the long history of the nation. Not once. Ever. But blame the west for supporting Yelstin.
