re: I was merely pointing out that some studies indicate that not all Russians share your point of view

I have to admit that many things could have changed since left Russia 20 years ago

re: Eighty-eight percent (88%) of Russians believe the people who govern them don’t care what happens to them; 80% believe that whether or not they participate in the coming elections, nothing will change. Eighty-five (85%) believe a majority of Russian officials are corrupt; 89% believe a small handful of rich people are ruling the country

I am surprised that not all Russians believe that current government is corrupt and elite few, usually former party leaders, own the country. The fact that current Russian government is corrupt is a fact not a theory
