In Russia, if you work hard, save your money, engage in legal behaviors, one should stay out of jail. However, laws in Russia have a certain fluidity: thy are not inflexible holdovers from the Tsars, they have been adapted to the current business climate. The net results: 1 Oligarch under house arrest. This man is not a household word in the West, but he is a known entity-most billionaires are, especially among industries.
So this man has run afoul of the law. What law? WHOSE LAW? can he get bail? Or does he have to giveup his assets to buy his freedom(move to London)? Most of these characters have to move to Canada, or London, Or Cypress. Russia is just too small for more than 2 or 3 billionaires. Soon, old Mad Vlad will spring the trap, and the oligarch will be out and on his way to London, or Switzerland, or...........
Ahhhhhhhh, Russia, what a fascinating culture, complete with vodka.
Lake Tahoe, California's Alpine playground, is anchored on the west shore by Homewood/Tahoma, straddling two counties:Placer and El Dorado. The mayor of Tahoma posts information related to the area and items of interest to residents and visitors alike. Its goal is to be informative, humorous, and timely. Hope you enjoy the site.
