President Putin should be reminded that states with failed economies have seldom achieved wide spread income improvement through the use of repressive tactics. Investors from abroad are reluctant to participate in countries where the stability of the government is largely dependent on the strength of its police. Homegrown entrepreneurs will also not allow themselves to grow too successful. Some have been jailed for such sins.
