To my readers. “Anatomy of a Bolshevik” has been published on Amazon and Barns and Nobel. This book is a game changer. Written by a Soviet émigré and scholar of Marxism/ Leninism the book factually and intellectually deconstructs President Obama and answers the most troubling question “Why?” Why the President is leading an assault on American values, the economy and our way of life and | Read More »
Anatomy of a Bolshevik, Part III

Anatomy of a Bolshevik, Part III Preamble. Frequently, I have been asked, “What is the difference between Bolsheviks and socialists? A common interpretation of socialism is, “An economic system characterized by public ownership and centralized planning of the economy.” The essence of socialism is distribution of wealth in a so called fair and adequate way by the people (read by the government). Socialism is, by | Read More »

It is natural for man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts….For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth, to know the worst, and to provide for it. –Patrick Henry | Read More »
Annals of Capitalism, Part II: The New Frontier
By: Alex Markovsky (Diary) | September 16th at 03:44 PM |
I have studied economics and political science at Moscow University of Marxism-Leninism. The fascinating aspect of that experience is the acquisition of a unique view of capitalism and contemporary American society. No other society conceived itself as a product of exceptional entrepreneurship in pursuit of excellence – rewarded when it succeeds and punished when it fails. Indeed, as we discussed earlier in “Annals of Capitalism: | Read More »
Annals of Capitalism: The Spiral of Evolution
By: Alex Markovsky (Diary) | August 4th at 05:22 AM |
Although Karl Marx has been completely discredited even in the eyes of hard-core liberals, there are some people—including members of the current U.S. administration—who use this current state of economic crises to embrace and actively promulgate some of his socialist ideas. Although those people recognize the serious perils of socialism, they believe that capitalism has not worked well lately either, and that government involvement is | Read More »
The Third World War

The Third World War has begun and it is not what we expected. America and the Western world are facing a danger no country has ever faced before. Our enemy is not a government nor is it a country. We are fighting enemies who are willing to kill themselves in order to kill us. This war makes our conventional Army, Navy and Air forces impotent. | Read More »
America: One on One With Her Liberty
By: Alex Markovsky (Diary) | December 6th at 11:26 PM |
As I said in my previous post, “Anatomy of a Bolshevik,” history is never a carbon copy of the past but it does provide useful parallels. So when I looked through the pages of Gordon Woods’ brilliant book, American Revolution, I was struck by certain similarities between the past and present of our country. In the book’s preface, Woods writes: Unlike the French Revolution, which | Read More »
Anatomy of a Bolshevik

To say that Obama is a Bolshevik may sound extreme, but as someone who grew up in the former Soviet Union, and holds degrees in economics and political science from the University of Marxism-Leninism, the American political landscape reveals a scary reality: the United States elected a Radical Socialist Government committed to the transformation of the American capitalist free-enterprise system into an egalitarian society with | Read More »
