Well, I wouldn't go that far...in fact, there are only a few countries
which could even remotely be called laissez faire. Capitalism itself still
sticks in the craw of many classes, and the country with the highest
population (and one of the largest land masses) is communist.

To me, it is very uplifting to read that Russia may finally, at long last,
have sensible members of government, but the results remain to be seen; we
have a long way to go.
