Here are some comments from my brother who just visited Russia:
NO HOPE FOR THE FUTURE AT ALL. 40 TO 50% UNEMPLOYED. THEY DON'T KNOW
HOW TO
WORK.
NO QUALITY IN THEIR PRODUCTS. HARDLY ANY ECONOMIC LIFE AT ALL. FEW SHOPS
FULL OF IMPORTED GOODS ONLY, PEOPLE STUGGLE TO SURVIVE. PROFIT IS STILL
A
BAD WORD. POVERTY, PROSTITUTION, MAFIA, ALCOOLISM, UNEMPLOYMENT,
INSTABILITY, CORRUPTION ETC
A REAL CHAOS. BUT RUSSIANS ARE GOOD SENTIMENTAL PEOPLE W/ DIGNITY BUT
THEY'RE LEFT ALONE IN THIS MESS. THE TRAGEDY IS THE ELDER THAT HAVE TO
MAKE
IT ON A $20 A MO. PENSION.
THE PROBLEM IN MY
OPINION WILL BE THE NEXT GENERATION BECAUSE EVERYTHING GOOD COMMUNISM
HAD(SCHOOLS,HOSPITALS,SPORTS,ARTS,ETC) IS DETERIORATI |
