On: UK Reconsiders 1986 Decision To Ban Astronauts

It has the 9th largest GDP in the world by volume, it's growth rate is 8.1% and the percentage of the population below the poverty line is 7% Gonna have to call bs on that one...where'd you get that, Putin's wikipedia entry? CIA says almost 16% and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) says 30% live below poverty. But those are just numbers. Having spent time there intermittently in the 90's and with close friends (Russians and expats) there, Russia is a struggling economy desperate for a dictator.
