Russian space officials are hailing the end of the space shuttle era as the beginning of the "Soyuz epoch." For at least the next few years, Russian Soyuz craft will serve as the only way to get back and forth from the International Space Station, and NASA will be paying up to $63 million a seat for the ride.
Russian cosmonauts will also make up half of the space station's crews from here on out, even though NASA has paid most of the estimated $100 billion cost of construction.

Our Nation has become Amerika. We are one with Russia, proudly. The socalled free market economy of the once great "democracy" has been demonstrated to be a failure.
It failed because there was nothing free about the markets including the ability to compete. There is no competition allowed in Amerika. The government store provides our goods and the local government will provide us a job if we are qualified. We are taught to become indoctrinated in public school and accept our "position" in society, which is one of servitude to the elites.
