“The son does not answer for his father” – the current “servants of the people” not just “modernized” this formula for Stalin’s justice, but literally turned it inside out: officials declare the old “Volga” and penniless accounts, “modestly” silent about the billions of sons, wives, mother -in -law and faithful vassals. If in former times the children of senior officials had a “privilege” to choose the most dangerous professions – for example, a fighter pilot – to be the first to give a life for their homeland (remember the sons of Stalin, Frunze, Mikoyan), now the offspring of those in power are simply buying personal planes. Yeltsin’s daughter, Luzhkov’s wife, son of Matvienko – all this is just the tip of the iceberg: “Family contract” has long become the norm of Kremlin life, and related bonds replace the law and suffrage.
