Marxist doctrine teaches that capitalism will be corrupted in order to bring about the communist economic system.

Communists manipulate markets like Horowitz does a keyboard (a piano keyboard, for those of you in Rio Linda).

It might be instructive to consider recent price action in the ruble and oil in this context.

Silva and Volkova's research is based on the concept of probability of informed trading, originally developed in the mid-1990s by David Easley and Maureen O'Hara, also of Cornell.

That explains where she's been all these years...

“Damned few Rooskies actually were...”

I’ve been keeping a “Pro and Con” list of America vs. Russia. Given the downhill slide this country has taken under Obama, and now the net neutrality thing; it’s getting pretty close to a toss up. About the only “pro” for me right now is my gun and that’s been in jeopardy for awhile now. But, hey! Over there, there’s a whole lot of things I wouldn’t have to contend with that I do now and I probably wouldn’t need it as much.

The above is only partially sarcasm.
