Or maybe not. It  (the middle class) is not even sure that whatever  
it owns will not be expropriated, be it 50/100 ruble bills,  
obligatsii or company assets. First the crown must learn to respect  
property (for those who remember the US Constitution —  "life,  
liberty, and the pursuit of property"), and the populace would have  
to learn not to shake in the boots that it might loose it, then maybe  
a power sharing arrangement could be reached.
