I alway thought that the suggestion in National Review just after the fall of Russian communism was the best.
Put his corpse on a giant rotisserie, so he can roll over in his grave for all eternity.

It was an integral part of a bigwig [nomenclaturist] career - official or inofficial attachment to, and collaboration with, KGB. Like the prior military service used to be expected from United States politicians in the 19th and early 20th century. And it is not a question of "control" - nobody needed to pull any strings. They did not need to be controlled - kegebunery became their very nature, flesh and bones. They instinctively behaved as needed and expected - that's how they got to where they were.

Then strap magnets to him, and generate free electricity!

Well, first of all "conservatives" are not a monolithic group. There are social conservatives, fiscal conservatives, ye olde greed is good conservatives, etc.
And too, the irony in this case is just too delicious.

If the partyers really wanted to pull a goof, they would haul him of the tomb, put a cigar in his mouth, a drink in his hand, have one of the girls sit on his lap and take a picture.

I see a "Weekend with Lenin" movie in out future...

That $370 per shot. I'd bet you could make lots more money buy lowering the price and going for volume sales.
