But I, ladies and gentlemen, haven't said a word about it publicly because I have not had a chance to do so.

RUSH: Here is Oleg in Brooklyn. Oleg, I'm glad you waited. I really appreciate your patience. Hello.CALLER: Yes. Hello. Mega dittos from the motherland, Rush. Motherland, where taxes were high and that's why national disasters never happened. The government withheld 95% of the people's income and that's why in the USSR bridges never fell, levees never broke, and Chernobyl reactors never exploded, if you know what I'm saying.RUSH: Well, I do, that's very funny, thanks for the call.CALLER:...
