Yeah, I didn't get it too.
I know what's wrong with being poor - it just sucks. But what's wrong with
being rich?.. Does it extempt you from any rights or make you an evil
bastard all of a sudden? This is the kind of dangerous attitude that lead my
country to nearly a century of a nightmare...
So tell us, Alexandr: How has unbridled capitalism helped the people of
the former Soviet Union?
Your country is now ruled by an authoritarian "President", who has complete
control over the press, just as it was before under the Communists. The KGB
is still the Secret Police, as it always has been. Your country is now
owned by an Oligarchy (the Russian Mafia), much like it was under the Tsars
and the aristocrats.
On top of that, your scientists, academecains, artists, and athelets have
all deserted your nation for huge salaries in the West. Your mothers,
sisters, and daughters prostitute themselves to party bosses and Western
businessmen, who are slowly buying up your nation.
Your young men are drunk and stoned half the time, or in prison. Your
babushkas are all starving, and living on Western handouts.
Your Red Army, which stood triumphant against Hitler, is falling apart. The
soldiers barely get enough food to stay alive, much less fight off an
enemy. Their generals and colonels are selling rusting nuclear weapons to
Iran and North Korea, and getting hugely rich, while YOU live in tenements
which are falling apart from neglect.
Your "Russian Federation" looks like the SAME corrupt empire it always has
been for centuries. It's just been renamed and given a little "democratic"
whitewash, for the sake of the West's dollars.
Yeah, what a "change" in attitude you all had there...
