Autocracy and Communism will work a treat if a country can get a leader, intelligent, honest and selfless. History shows that a human cannot be such as a leader as he has to rely on many others to survive. Probably Lenin went close to be one but he had to be brutal to survive in very brutal Russia and did not live long enough. Putin dreamed of being one ended up being the richest man on earth and his cronies who defended him all became billionaires as Russian oil discoveries of the 1970's started showering in dollars as Putin took office. Putin survived 25 years mostly because his cronies were too wealthy and did not let that slip away. For that many people of Russia live in poverty, suffer without freedom of expression and sacrifice their lives to keep them in power.
