Food ration cards in Russia: a return to the past or a timely measure?

The very idea of ​​introducing cards in a situation when the country is going through a difficult period is not something unusual both for Russia and for the rest of the world, which we are used to calling “developed” or “civilized”. Comparison of the present moment with the years of "perestroika", when various restrictions on the purchase of essential goods, resulting in the appearance of "coupons" and "coupons", were caused by a deficit artificially created for the collapse of the USSR "from above", in my opinion, is incorrect.

Rather, it’s worth talking about the years of the post-war recovery period, when this forced measure helped to save millions of people from hunger and death, and the country's economy made it possible to survive and get stronger, despite all the trials that fell. The coronavirus pandemic is not a worldwide disaster that requires solutions and measures that are truly extraordinary?

By the way, those who today pounced on the authors of the idea of ​​food rationing for the poor with accusations of “trying to hyip” and accusations of “poorly thought out the initiative”, for some reason forget that they were the first with a similar proposal to the domestic Ministry of Industry and Trade in April of this years ago, it was not politicians who applied at all, but Russian entrepreneurs. A collective letter to this effect was signed by representatives of the leading enterprises in the agro-industrial, processing and food industries.

It is in their opinion that targeted assistance to our compatriots, whose income was below the subsistence level, will not only help this socially vulnerable group of the population, but also save many enterprises in agriculture, industry and trade from ruin. Business representatives believed that such a measure would be much more effective than government regulation of food prices, which could, in particular, lead to the opposite result - the disappearance of essential goods from the sale, the emergence of their "black market" and an even greater rise in prices.

Anyway, critics of the idea, for example, the first deputy chairman of the committee of the upper house of parliament on budget and financial markets, Sergei Ryabukhin, who said that the rationing system could be introduced in the country only "in conditions of a shortage of products, and not of the surplus that is now available," simply did not understand the essence of the proposal. As Yulia Ogloblina, a member of the Public Chamber, later explained, she by no means had in mind the total transition to cards of the 1941 sample. Not at all! It was exclusively about targeted, targeted assistance to the poor.

Julia Ogloblina

Also, apparently, Nikita Krichevsky, the chief researcher of the Institute of Economics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, did not understand what he had heard, who generally began to discuss the insignificant details of the proposed innovation. For example, he was concerned about how the "new cards" would look and the problem of "easy counterfeit cardboard squares" ...

Have mercy, gentlemen, the XXI century is in the yard. Have you heard anything about plastic cards? But, by the way, Ogloblina just proposes to move first of all this way. And, by the way, it is these “food stamps” within the framework of the nationwide Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) that have existed in the United States for more than 80 years, which are so often presented to us as the standard of well-being and prosperity.

In the post-crisis 2008-2009, the number of clients of this program in the United States reached almost 47 million people. Funds allocated within its framework are transferred to special bank cards EBT (Electronic Benefits Transfer), with which you can purchase any food - with the exception of alcohol and tobacco. And in the domestic Ministry of Trade, something similar has been discussed since at least 2014. True, they planned to make transfers to "specially opened accounts" there. But this is where the particulars and details begin, in which you know who can hide ...

It is unlikely that it will be possible to completely transfer such a program to an electronic version - far from all the settlements of the domestic "hinterland" (especially in rural areas) will be technically ready for this. Give out aid in the form of "real money"? But there are two problems here. Firstly, such funds are really guaranteed not to go to "intoxicating" or smoking. Secondly, there is a double meaning - the program will have support for both low-income citizens and domestic producers only if the funds allocated for it are spent on the purchase of food products of exclusively Russian origin.

In a word, with the general usefulness and timeliness of the initiative, it really needs a serious study of the intricacies of its implementation in relation to the realities of "native aspens". However, Mrs. Ogloblina promised that the Public Chamber would send a thoughtful and balanced, extremely specific proposal to the government. I would like to believe that it will be so.

The very idea of ​​introducing cards in a situation when the country is going through a difficult period is not something unusual both for Russia and for the rest of the world, which we used to call “developed” or “civilized”.
Let's be honest, even to ourselves. When the state cannot and does not want to limit the greed of the grabber, it limits the population. And the poor there or all the polls are particulars.

[carstorm 11]

You probably also did not understand that here as a conversation not about restrictions, but on the contrary about help. In any country there will be poor people. And there is an opportunity to create a mechanism to help them people lost income during the crisis. The state helps them to survive. As the author correctly said, the main thing here is how to do it correctly. In our school, children and low-income families and large families in the nineties were given coupons for meals for every day. I do not remember under the auspices of what, but this is quite reasonable help.

[NDR-791]

I do not know about you, I lived on the coupon system in the 90s. Here the problem is WHAT AND HOW MUCH !!! If the consumer basket contains 1,5 socks per year or 400g of cereal per month is entered into the card (and I assure you that it will be so or so), then this is not help, it is a slow dying.

[carstorm 11]

Here again, you did not understand) exactly the same about whom the author writes) these are not coupons. This is money. Just with certain restrictions and in a different form .. You bought the product with coupons anyway. In this case, you pay for it in the store.

[aglet]

"Here again you did not understand"
it was about cards, not about money. and the initiative of traders is aimed at ensuring that their products are guaranteed to be bought, no matter what. caring for the poor here goes sideways

[carstorm 11]

One does not interfere with the other at all.

[aglet]

"One does not interfere with the other at all"
it is precisely the irrepressible greed of traders and the government's unwillingness to raise the income of the population that led to so many beggars in the potentially richest country in the world

[carstorm 11]

This will never happen) which means you have to live in reality

Read how this is in a country that really considers itself the richest in the world:
"What you need to know about Food Stamps"
https://yandex.ru/turbo/usa.one/s/2018/06/chto-nuzhno-znat-o-food-stamps/
"SNAP adherents argue that food stamps are a very effective measure to keep poor Americans from starving. In their opinion, President Trump's reforms will leave many people without a power source."

"There are clear selection criteria for US residents who may be eligible for food stamps.
The total income of the entire family, consisting of at least 3 people, must be below 130% of the poverty line, that is, about $ 26 thousand per family per year. If there is an elderly person in the family, disabled or physically disabled, the total level of their savings can reach $ 3,5 thousand. If there are no such family members, then no more than $ 2,25 thousand. "

"How many US citizens get food stamps
In 2018 officially and42,2 million people are eligible for food stamps and receive them. This number is gradually decreasing. So, in 2013, 47,6 million were received from the government. "

"Who gets food stamps
In the past few years, about 44% of food stamp recipients were minors, and 12% were US citizens and residents over the age of 60. The remaining recipients were American adults of working age.

57% of all consumers are women, 43% are men.

About 36% of consumers are white and 26% are African American. 17% are Hispanic consumers and 3% are Asian. About 11% of consumers are American adults with disabilities. "

"How Much Does the Food Stamp Program Cost for Taxpayers
Last year, the federal government spent a little over $ 68 billion on SNAP... More than 93% of the funds go to benefits, which are credited to the card, and the rest covers administrative costs. "

[Vadim237]

Incomes of the population will grow only when the entire economy grows and not 2 - 3% per year, but 10 or more, but the Russian economy will hardly see such growth in this decade.

[Ingvar 72]

Quote: Vadim237

more but the Russian economy will hardly see such growth in this decade.

I was reminded of an incident from the life of Bernard Shaw. Once at a reception he was told - "Looking at you, Mr. Shaw, one might think that there is a famine in the country.
"Looking at you, Mr. Northcliff, one might think that you are the cause of this hunger," Shaw replied.
This is me, Vadik, that yesterday they published information on the income of the head of Russian Railways for 2020. And this is 450.000.000. Half a yard, Vadik! What is the economic growth? !!
As long as these .... radishes will "rule" the country, there will be no growth at all!

[Vadim237]

And how does the income of the head of Russian Railways affect the growth of the Russian economy or somehow hinder it? The growth of the economy depends primarily on the demand for all goods and services, both domestically and abroad, as well as on the range of goods and services and their demand, but not at all on how much salary someone in the management receives.

[Ingvar 72]

Quote: Vadim237

And how does the income of the head of Russian Railways affect the growth of the Russian economy or somehow inhibit it?

Not catching up yourself? How do you think the distribution of profits with a clear bias towards top management affects the development of the industry? And such nonsense all over the country, wherever you spit.

[Revival]

The author writes that in a "great-power" country, there are a huge number of beggars who already need to issue food cards so that they do not die of hunger

[Boris Chernikov]

the author writes that many people try to write their opinion without even trying to figure out the essence of the issue .. like you for example ..

[Revival]

And some write frank delirium, of which I was convinced right now

[Boris Chernikov]

you yourself understood that you wrote nonsense?

[three]

Yes, we all understood. 30 rubles will be added to the social pension of 7 tyrs and they will shout about the welfare state. Angles about 50 pounds per child to NG have already laughed.

[nnm]

Why are you comparing this ??? Then only with the help of cards you could buy food for yourself (except for co-retail stores), but now it is ADDITIONAL, FREE, it is proposed to give it to the poor. What's bad about it ?!!

There is nothing wrong with that. The bad news is that the state killed its economy to such an extent that it lived up to ration cards. And someone continues to shout about how we "got off our knees" after the 90s. I'm afraid the "new nineties" are just around the corner.

[nnm]

Once again .... do you know a way to force drinking families to stop drinking, to force parasites to work, to instantly raise pensions several times, to return fathers who have run away from them to families with children, etc.? I dont know. But what's wrong with the fact that, in addition to the funds that these people have, in addition to giving out products for free? It is more difficult to drink them, it is more likely that they will reach a child in such a family than if you give out money. Or do you have a real recipe for how to immediately solve the problem of low income? Only with numbers and calculations, and not general words about barricades, grains and Chubais .... because you can shout about Miller's salary for many years, and this will not add much money to a pensioner. And what's wrong if, while we shake the air, give the same grandmother an ADDITIONAL food set?

[Revival]

"Or do you have a real recipe for how to quickly solve the problem of low incomes?"

The problem is to get together to solve the problem of low incomes!

[nnm]

Yes, great, we can discuss this for another 20 years, in the hope that they will hear us, and let people wait while ...

[Revival]

One gets the impression that they are capable of "waiting" forever ...

[Machito]

And the problem of high income is not even voiced. Every Depardieu run into the country to pay 13% from their super profits. The progressive scale of income taxes has sunk into oblivion.
Russia's problem is not that you cannot feed the poor. The problem with Russia is that the rich won't get drunk.

[Vadim237]

Everyone earns as they can - and the rich should not put the poor on their necks, but should honestly pay taxes to these people, the state should help them get out of poverty, but they themselves should make efforts, each creator of their own life and happiness.

[Revival]

State !?
Well, as soon as it appears, then it will begin to do everything

[IS-80_RVGK2]

Yes Yes. We already know this. That only the rich have the right to sit on the neck of the poor, and not vice versa. For thirty years of building a bright capitalist future, we have already understood this.

[Vadim237]

The poor have no money - so they have low purchasing power to sit around their necks.

[IS-80_RVGK2]

Dy, dy. Of course. That is why from time immemorial people have been ripped off by taxes and other cruel exploitation with the squeezing of surplus value. Periodically leading to uprisings and other revolutions.

Food ration cards in Russia: a return to the past or a timely measure?
1. Meal by card is a full bottom.
2. When the USSR was falling apart, cards were also introduced.
3. Switching to handouts instead of raising salaries is an excellent result.
4. The introduction of "quasi-money" will lead to both a deficit and inflation, nothing is free.
5. Comparison with the United States is a shame, the economy there is many times more powerful and, most importantly, they have a machine with money. They can afford "quasi-money" in any amount.
6. To consider all the poor citizens of Russia-drunks another recognition of Russians as dependent servants.

[nnm]

Colleague, I'm sorry, but I'm already tired of trying to explain what is being commented on without even understanding the question. If you want, you will read the above. It just won't fit the globe, what I read on the forum.
Essentially, it looks like this:
1. Give the poor in ADDITIONAL, give out products for FREE.
2. We: no, this is not an option, let's change the system, steal, disgrace, let's create jobs !!!! Don't give out anything!
3. Bottom line: the poor continue to go hungry, we continue to shout slogans (often correct) for years. An excellent option and those without food, and the authorities do not care about our cries.
4. Attention, the question: why is it impossible to start providing products to low-income products and, in parallel, demand changes in the system?

[aglet]

"Colleague, I'm sorry, but I'm already tired of trying to explain what is being commented on without even understanding the question."
you so clearly understand this question, which you have not even gathered to accept, that it seems that it was you who introduced it. do not consider yourself the smartest. are you sure you got it right? and everyone has the right to their opinion, especially on an issue that does not yet exist, and most likely will not.

[Roman070280]

Attention, question: why is it impossible to start issuing now

Why can't you start execution from step 2 now?

You suggest that a patient who needs to have a cancer tumor removed should be given free vitamins for a start.
Well, they won't make him any worse today - that's right .. But this does not solve the problem ..
Looking from the wrong side !! With this approach, in 10 years we will all be sitting on cards ..

[Civil]

1. Nothing happens for free, they will pay exorbitant money from the budget.
2. The issue will turn into just a monstrous sinecure with blackjack, courtesans and Luna Park.
3. Lenin's principle - the worse the better.
4. Well-fed system does not change.

[IS-80_RVGK2]

Explain, you are our explainer. How does it happen. There is enough money in the state for the benefits of the poor. And there is not enough money to pay them normal salaries so that they do not have to spend money on benefits. Directly a mystery. In principle, I know the answer. I'm wondering how an adept of capitalism will explain it. What intricate demagoguery there will be.

,, It was smooth on paper, but they forgot about the ravines ,, (c) They came up with an initiative about food cards, but they didn’t ask the owners for permission, for this they got a turn from the gate. I recently posted this quote from the ,, Arguments of the week ,,, I repeat again ................................. .................................

The food market in Russia is controlled by foreign companies
Alexander Chuikov
December 15, 2020 .... The earth is getting weirder and weirder. The largest agricultural holdings "eat" Russian agricultural lands, like Gargantua and Pantagruel. According to experts from the consulting company BEFL, in 2015, 43 largest agricultural holdings disposed of almost 8 million hectares of Russian arable land! And in May 5 from Christmas, 2020 companies already controlled 61 million hectares, 14 thousand hectares more than last year.

The five main latifundists have 3 million hectares in their pockets. Thus, the ABH Miratorg, which has nothing to do with the wife of the former prime minister, has crossed the fatal milestone - 81 million hectares. In second place is the Prodimex holding with 1 thousand hectares. "Agrocomplex named after N.I. Kacheva "- 04 thousand hectares, GK" Rusagro "- 865 thousand ha. EkoNiva-APK closes the top five of the land leaders, whose land bank is estimated at 653 thousand hectares.

Why count land in someone else's pocket? But why! The founders of Miratorg, the open beneficiaries of the business, according to Rusprofil, are 2 foreign legal entities: Agromir LLC (Cyprus) with a share of 1 rubles. (730, 826%) and Saudeid Enterprises Limited with a share of 900 rubles. (99%).

Prodimex is presumably Meadway holdings ltd.

At the "Agrocomplex" in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities on 117 pages of the extract text there is no information about the founders, which causes not just surprise, but admiration for the resourcefulness of the owner of 653 thousand hectares.

Everything is extremely confusing in Rusagro, therefore, in order not to run into legal difficulties, we will not say anything.

The main founder of EkoNiva-APK, with a 98% share (5 rubles), is Ekozem-Agrar Ag, registered in Germany.

Let us just remind you that according to federal laws, agricultural land cannot be sold to foreigners! So, none of the first five companies that own nearly 4 million hectares of Russian arable land have a clear and transparent structure of real ultimate beneficiaries. But they still receive gigantic budgetary subsidies ... Curtain.

I would like to be wrong. And yet, I believe that this (and not only this) is the forerunner of the new nineties.

Supported. I don’t understand why they don’t consider the issue of a stupid increase in pensions. The budget allows (any normal economy would have long ago pushed through to achieve the target in CPI without any QE).

They take an example from such recognized luminaries of democracy as Pinochet and Mabuta.

no one will ask you personally. our taxes will improve the health of Gazprom, Rosneft, and personally to the President. He also costs a pretty penny to the budget. Yes, Rosstat has forgotten. will allocate money for a new method of counting the have-nots, in order to reduce their number. and then, for what remains, at the expense of the budget they will buy production waste from the traders at the price of delicacies, and they will start distributing (selling), they have not yet decided, they are not smart. and they will immediately heal. And they will have money to pay for housing and communal services, and they will be able to buy medicines, but what, maybe even buy new pants!
we have already passed this, more than once

[Svarog]

. it also costs a lot of money to the budget

It’s not a little modest .. it absorbs one, like the budget of a city of a millionaire, and there is still a staff serving it, where the amount is similar .. and a bunch of parasites in the Duma, sf, pension fund .. and so on .. and this heap has its own service staff .. But for some reason, there is no question of tightening their belts and entering cards into the Duma or Federation Council, although there all the billionaires and salaries might not receive at all ...

[Vadim237]

Rosstat has only one way of counting the poor - by the official salary and pension.

[aglet]

"Rosstat has only one way of counting the poor - by the official salary and pension"
there is only one method, but the methods can be different. Again, the problem can be set in different ways. there are options, there are

[Boris Chernikov]

oh yes, of course Axelbant is very important for the state ... because its 200 maximum taxes per year is so important for the state ... how could Gazprom and Rosneft, who paid a couple of 000 trillion rubles in taxes from their profits

[Boris Chernikov]

and you and 10 of those who put you pluses ... at least they would study the question

[aglet]

"Then you could buy food for yourself only by cards,"
Don't you remember what products could then be bought with coupons? well, except for vodka and cigarettes? and which ones were sold without coupons? but then the deficit was artificially created, and now too?

[armored cat]

This is a shame to the government and the president. And they came up with cards so that the people did not riot. We steal billions from you and you live on cards.

[Boris Chernikov]

And in our country, in principle, at least once were people satisfied? I remember that when the capital was introduced, screeching began about "why not for the first?" and "why so little ?! why not tens of thousands of bucks, I deserve" .. When they introduced for the first, the cries were again about little and more is needed and generally just like that ... So now, at first, they shout about "a lot of poor and "grandmother with a blue skin", and when they proposed a mechanism for solving the problem, they scream about dissatisfaction with the solution .. because they just need a lot of dough and they personally and just like that

[Sergej1972]

Aren't you confusing the 90s with the 80s? In the 90s, in a number of regions, coupons were only in 1990-1991. Since 1992, they have been gone.

[Boris Chernikov]

and again you did not understand the principle .. the essence is this .. a conventional pensioner receives a MIR card, they charge 1 rubles, for example, a month .. after which the pensioner can go to the store and buy goods made in Russia, In addition to alcohol and cigarettes, by paying with this money either the entire cost or part of the price. This will help, first of all, the pensioner himself, and secondly, it is a hidden mechanism of subsidizing and supporting domestic producers

[d4rkmesa]

Well, they still argue about "made in Russia". It is easier to limit the 10% VAT rate, there will be little non-Russian.

[Boris Chernikov]

no one argues - cards will be introduced only under such a basis - goods that will be subject to the possibility of purchase - must be produced in Russia. Everything. point. no one will be perverted with VAT, because it takes a long time and it is gross to change the tax code for a narrow profile, not to mention the highly probable attempts to manipulate purchases.

[d4rkmesa]

OMG yes you read what it is about. And then, as you read the "coupons", your eyes are bloodshot, and that's it, you don't see anything. It is about distributing "money" to the poor only for food.

Help is reasonable, only where did so many poor come from if we have a stable economy and all hurray hurray hurray. For some reason, the fight against poverty, judging by this article, has turned into the fight against poverty, when a person cannot provide himself with food, and the Government is concerned about the prices of basic products - pasta. This ... there are no words.
It is not necessary to explain which state is good because it has brought these people to such a state, the same pensioners.

Now I have taken and organized the Honest Sign, ask what it is. So, in short, the marking of goods, barcode. Come on, they will mark it, but only this honest sign belongs to Usmanov, the question arises without consent, lobbying and orders himself, was it possible to shoe all of Russia like this, so that a penny would drip into the pocket of this gentleman with every thing produced, imported and sold, medicine. There is no need to dig factories, or to dig the land, or to build anything, and every citizen of the Russian Federation pays money. Live in pleasure now in London, now in Nice.
The mind is incomprehensible. There is no such thing in any country.

[Vadim237]

When did this label appear - and how are the current 20 million poor connected to it? And what does it mean, production does not need to be started, but these stickers themselves appeared out of thin air, they probably need to be done to create databases on goods - so that it would be more difficult for the guys for the production and sale of counterfeit goods, so it is better for the state to put one hundred million to a businessman alone to control the goods or further allow to rip off tens of thousands of underground producers of every leftist a budget for trillions of rubles in uncollected taxes? But all this money is not received by public sector employees and everyone else who lives at the expense of the budget defense industry medicine science and so on.

The marking comes into force from 01.01.21.
No databases are created.
Individual entrepreneurs and legal entities are simply stripped off. persons and those, in turn, will raise the prices of goods. The rest is your fiction

Only then, for some reason, it was evil, but with a light capitalist present type of good. This is your whole rotten capitalism.

True, they say: if you want to feed a man, give him a fishing rod and not a fish. Economy and industry need to be revived, not benefits should be raised. Although it would not hurt to increase the benefits.

[nnm]

Why confuse soft with warm? What other return ?! In the 90s, cards were given to everyone also because there was a terrible shortage of food. Now they should be given to the poor !!! To give money to dysfunctional families, often, is a high probability that they will drink away. And giving out products for free, I think, is a great idea. In the USA, beloved by the liberals, there is an absolutely similar system

[NDR-791]

And giving out products for free, I think, is a great idea.
Great idea, but it won't. It will be like in the 90s - the state will buy the limit at a fixed price from a conventional entrepreneur. And the grandmother at a fixed price in the store, but at the card rate. The rest is needed in the diet for other money. And no one will give anything for free. A maximum of chowder once a day. And now our homeless people are so fed.

[nnm]

Confused again. What the grandmother can buy and now buys from her, no one takes away and does not limit in any way. She will be additionally given a set of products for free. Why are you writing about some kind of soup, where does the homeless have (although, I think, such sets will be put to them) ?! Well, read the text, it's not a new idea.

Essentially, it looks like this:
1. Give the poor in ADDITIONAL, give out products for FREE.
2. We: no, this is not an option, let's change the system, steal, disgrace, let's create jobs !!!! Don't give out anything!
3. Bottom line: the poor continue to go hungry, we continue to shout slogans (often correct) for years. An excellent option and those without food, and the authorities do not care about our cries.
4. Attention, the question: why is it impossible to start providing products to low-income products and, in parallel, demand changes in the system?

Are you on the payroll here? It seems that you alone here did not understand that 30 years were wasted if we lived up to the cards AGAIN.

Am I talking about a specific person? I'm talking about the country, if you don't understand. With all their might they wanted to leave and forget how bad a dream the deficit is and that means cards, bam food is not enough for everyone. Although wrong, money to buy.

"4. Attention, a question: why is it impossible to start providing products to low-income products right now and simultaneously demand changes in the system?"

Quite right, better than nothing and urgent.

In the 90s, cards were given to everyone

Since 1992, the country has entered a liberal, market economy and cards have ceased to be issued.
As for the free products. Russia pays for the war in Donbass with humanitarian wagons, the same happens in Karabakh, Syria, but not in Russia. In Russia, they showed on TV with delight how food was buried.

[evgen1221]

And why in the 90s there was not enough money if in 89 there were heaps of money. All rushed to throw loot into dollars en masse.

[aglet]

"And why in the 90s there was not enough money at times if in 89 there were heaps of them. Everyone rushed to throw money into dollars en masse."
but because prices went up incredibly and the economy stopped. so the money ran out, they don't grow on the tree. Now, about the same thing happens, the second wave, so to speak. and dollars were far from everywhere, and not everyone could buy them, not all

[evgen1221]

so what is the cause and what is the effect? At that time, the union was still printing money for itself, and before the reforms, the humpback was completely free of cash dollars.

[aglet]

"So what is the reason and what is the effect? ​​The union was still printing money for itself and before the reforms, the humpback was quite enough for itself without a cash dollar."
GorbACH's reforms began in 1985, then their union itself printed, without anyone's permission, and there was enough money for everything, including food. And in the 90s there was no union, the ball was ruled by fucking with accomplices, here then there was neither money nor income. and rubles were printed with the permission of the IMF, as it is now, by the way

Don't you think that something is wrong with this system? That a person should live off his labor, and not on gratuitous benefits? Which corrupt, dull and kill any motivation to do something.

And capitalism is ready to give work. And pay taxes. Only a sane taxation system is needed. Which feeds the people, and not a handful of bureaucrats and oligarchs on state wages. Which does not kill, but stimulates production in the country.

[Yura]

Quote: NDR-791

Capitalism should give work, WORK !!! And pay taxes from this job!

Capitalism owes nothing to anyone and cannot give it - it is just a system, a system of economic relations. Work, social guarantees - this is what people should and are obliged to do, the State Duma should pass laws in the interests of its citizens, the government and executive bodies carry them out in the interests of their citizens, all this should be within the framework of the constitution. Capitalism is a system outside of ideology, therefore, in this system, the dense right of the strong and the rich flourishes, the fight against him as with a soulless machine or system is meaningless, it can only be changed. To change, first you need to know for what, for what impeccable system of economic relations? Any other political system is based on economic relations, artificially built economic relations also carry contradictions. To the ideology of these fair economic relations, which we all accept, we still need to grow, everyone. We did not manage to build a socialist society, and then a communist one, for this very reason, there were no normal and fair economic relations between the state and its citizens, for the most part it was a distribution pyramidal system in which these functions were very often performed by soulless, selfish, indifferent people, and some are just grabbers.

"Capitalism should give work" ??? Gives when it is profitable. It is not profitable, it optimizes production by cutting thousands of people, no matter what. Throws it out into the street, invites strikebreakers. Only socialism brought the work to fruition.

Unfortunately, it will not work out that way. I cite an example from my own experience - my cousin's brother almost deprived of vodka, they kicked everyone out of work (even from the janitors). They fed the sick person, canned food there, when the legs, etc. Canned food ran out in the first place, and he still asked. So he poured those canned food into the bunch - a snack from him, you know.

Or do you have a real recipe for how to immediately solve the problem of low income? Only with numbers and calculations, and not general words about barricades, grains and Chubais .... because you can shout about Miller's salary for many years, and this will not add much money to a pensioner.

2.elimination of social inequality in the state
3. "25 million new jobs" - forgot Putin's promise?

[ycuce234-san]

It is possible, before the economy normalizes, to stop taxing the monthly increase in profits from the sale of food products to the population. Not all profits, but profit growth per month. Similarly - to introduce incentives for capital investments (investors pay taxes from them) in the production and sale of food and on income from newly commissioned capacities of the food industry and agriculture.
Then the business will become more active in reducing costs and increasing food production; prices, at least, will almost stop rising.

[d4rkmesa]

My director will transfer all non-taxable profit gains to his Swiss account, one way or another. Benefits are possible only in fixed assets, investments. In many sectors, there is now excess production capacity - the people simply cannot afford the food industry, in the same quantities. People also switched to basic products in some places - i.e. processed products are not in demand without substantial discounts.

[ycuce234-san]

Nobody thought to cancel the taxation of money transfers to foreign accounts of your director ...
Agricultural lands are abandoned - there are about 40 million hectares, and if there was a real food problem, they would be urgently put into circulation right now: they would cut the forest with tractor cutters, treat them with granular fertilizers in the snow and reclaim them with lime granules, supply and drain water. Until spring, the time for the preparation of the land. You can have time to prepare an increased harvest and buy it abroad, somewhere in the Southern Hemisphere, for example, where it is summer season, reserve until autumn. Therefore, rather, the real problem is not a shortage of food, but "buckwheat panics" and fuss over the juicy rate of profit in the distribution and trade of food.
By the way - the benefits for mechanical engineering that produce kitchen tools, dishes, multicooker, ovens, etc. for self-food processing - also make sense.
Although, of course, some shoals will still be noticeable - for example, sunflower seeds were exported faster than they managed to cover the possibility of export, and as a result, oil next year in retail will be about 200 rubles / liter, but this is a particular example.

[ximkim]

Further, to curtail the appetites of billionaire officials, Duma members and Federation Council .. and of course the guarantor ..
Even these simple steps will make a big difference.
Then to monopolize the entire oil and gas industry, alcohol production .. the largest enterprises for the processing of natural resources ..

[Bolt cutter]

It is important to understand that additional product support will be provided by domestic products to support their producers. And the distribution of money is a dead number. (State support for breweries )

[Sancho_SP]

If the money goes to beer, then this support was not particularly needed. Hand out more carefully.

[Bolt cutter]

You can't keep track of everyone. And you also need to support your producers.

[Sancho_SP]

Well, taxes to lower than to fence schemes.

[Bolt cutter]

And what should the state live for?

[Sancho_SP]

On what you plan to support manufacturers.

Otherwise, the consumer will pay for it by raising prices.

[aglet]

"Then this is pure corruption. It is more efficient to distribute money."
No way! inflation will rise!

[Sancho_SP]

And if you buy products at an overpriced price and give them away for free, inflation will not rise?

[aglet]

"And if you buy products at an overpriced price and give them away for free, will inflation not rise?"
Of course not. According to Naibulina, Siluyanov and the President personally, inflation grows only when people's wages rise. and, for free, nothing happens, especially now in our country. everything will be paid for, and more than if just bought.

[Sancho_SP]

Well, what's wrong with that? When the salary rises, and the same amount of work is expelled, it is inflation. When the salary rises for someone who does not produce anything (military, official, cop), this is inflation.

[tihonmarine]

True, they planned to carry out transfers to "specially opened accounts" there. But this is where the particulars and details begin, in which you know who can hide ...

The same firms and persons as in insurance medicine.

[ALARI]

What this buffoon PZh has brought the planet to! And if you do not mischief, then he can sell food abroad only after he has provided his population at an affordable price. And no cards are needed.

[Sancho_SP]

And who exactly should do it? Well, here's a specific farmer?

[ALARI]

State, our government has such a wonderful tool as export customs duties. Adjust export duties, and selling in your home country will be more profitable than driving over the hill.

[Sancho_SP]

Well, you understand that someone will pay for this? Either we, consumers, buying at a higher price, or farmers, selling at a lower price. Whom are we dispossessing of?)

[ALARI]

I don’t understand. You speak as if there are only population and farmers. And this is not so: the state-population-farmers-intermediaries. It is not necessary to deprive anyone of possessions, but someone needs to reduce their appetites. The 17th also began with the inability to buy groceries. You can put up with the lack of a new iPhone, but with an empty stomach, no.

[Sancho_SP]

And only so it is. Even less: there are manufacturers and intermediaries. They are consumers at the same time. Whom do we reduce appetites for?

By introducing export duties, you will not change world prices, which means that farmers will have to sell cheaper, so that the market would buy, taking into account the duties. But the state (mediator, parasite) will receive money in the form of these duties. Are you sure this is true?)

[ALARI]

If you export less, then world prices will go up (this is the answer to the fact that world prices will not change). Which market? If the world, then I don't care at what price they will buy in Asia, Africa, Europe. If our market, then duties do not need to be taken into account, duties are not imposed on domestic consumption. If the duties are protective, then you will not willingly have to sell within the country, if there is a lot of goods, then the price is dictated not by the seller, but by the buyer. This is called the market. And now we have cartels and a conspiracy, and the state has a share, or it doesn't care what is worse.

[Sancho_SP]

There are many goods on the world market. The disappearance of Russian wheat from it will not significantly affect prices. But on the domestic market, prices will collapse. Yes, the consumer will buy bread cheaper this year. But next time the farmers will go broke and we will again shamefully import the Canadian one.

Once again, parasites are not farmers whom you want to curtail appetites with your duties.

[ALARI]

Is it the state + intermediaries? Ish where you swung, at the scrapbearers. So you are right in our country, raise export tariffs, lower the price of raw materials, the cost of the final product will only grow (although for some reason this works in other countries). Only now I want to look at prices after April 1, 2021, when there was a freeze instead of regulation. And we will import anyway, only substitutes, we will push normal food to them, and we will have the remnants of processing, with such a policy to keep prices down.

[Sancho_SP]

I do not quite understand what kind of surrogates you are talking about.

Chicken, meat, cereals, potatoes, vegetables - all of this is mainly produced in Russia and others are usually not. What kind of food are we talking about? About delicacies?

[ALARI]

Cereals, butter, meat, are these goods more expensive on the world market than ours? And food is always in short supply. It is more profitable to sell there. And we are substitutes from there, we still need to feed the population. Remember the legs of a bush in the 90s, but where did all our meat go? According to statistics, we only took the lead in chicken meat compared to the 90s. Or again, apart from galoshes, the USSR produced nothing.

[Sancho_SP]

Well, you tell me by examples where those surrogates are. Well, an hour ago I was in the store, I looked specifically: ALL the goods I bought today, except for tangerines, are made in Russia and are quite natural. Where to look for surrogates?

[ALARI]

Palm tree oil replacement, soy protein replacement of animal protein, in sausage instead of meat 1, 2 grades of trimming, skin, liver + chemistry to imitate taste, smell, consistency. Fish pumped with hormones or frostbite last year. Bread that crumbles the next day. They just got used to many products, because they forgot the taste of the normal ones. This is what surrogates are.

[Nastia makarova]

buy expensive and high quality

[ALARI]

Advice from a row: live well and richly. Or when there was the USSR, why don't you drive a Mercedes if you don't like Lada. Thanks for the advice, you have discovered something new and unknown for me. Thank you very much.

[Sancho_SP]

Let's take it in parts:

It's even a shame for the fish. As a participant in equipping and launching several trout farms, I completely disagree. Another thing is that our fish is expensive in relation to meat - yes.

35 varieties of bread in the store. What, that's all bad? I just don't eat it too much, except that sometimes I buy round tandoor cakes from my Central Asian friends. Those cakes are very good. And yes, the next day the American square sandwich bread does not crumble and is stored for half a year, which is ironic.

Well, the sausage ... oh, this sausage. The phrase “sausage emigration” appeared for a reason, and not even yesterday. But even the sausage is different. And from pure meat, and without meat in general, and from paper, and from anything. Obviously, I can find a lot of varieties of high quality, you are not less than low quality.


The only argument I cannot argue with is that bad ready-made (!) Food is cheaper than good food. But this, in my opinion, is obvious.

[ALARI]

I understand that in any situation you can find a positive one; during execution, the fourth person always envies the one who is simply chopped off.

[Sancho_SP]

So where did we start? Beggars have no problem of hunger. There are problems of a normal life for those who work and earn money.

[ALARI]

You are right here. But the quality of life is slowly going down for both the poor and the working people. the trend is not good.

[three]

State tools are available from the state. officials, but ours are all by inheritance and nepotism. About duties, excise taxes, they have not heard

Shame, but you can make

No one offered any cards. They practice, you know, puns.
we are talking about issuing coupons to the poor for which you can get free bread, meat, pasta, etc., but not vodka and tobacco, sir.
What is better than giving out money, I think, is clear. it is harder to waste money without thinking about the children, and the allocations for the purchase of food to provide coupons will go to agricultural producers.

They are already solving problems with tobacco - they shoot in the street. And about money and wordplay, it turns out - there are problems and there are words for problems.

I wish the author to eat food issued on coupons. Again they will create a whole crowd of parasites for the distribution of coupons (cards). And they will learn to steal from cards.

[nnm]

Come on, stop ... the 21st century is in the yard and very quickly they will create an electronic database and will issue products on it. There is nothing difficult about this. But the fact that they will steal on the purchases of these products (their cost will certainly be subsidized), the sellers lie in the reports - this, yes. But only then you need to deal with this, first you need to think about what the products would reach the recipients. And checking these funds will not be at all difficult.

[Sancho_SP]

Why think about it? Products reach everyone perfectly from the store.

During this terrible pandemic, of course, there is a desire to help poor people, but besides this desire there is a desire to help small and medium-sized businesses. These types of businesses were supposed to be helped by insurance companies. If you correctly dispose of this offer, then of course there will be help. From tsarist times, and even in Soviet times, there were state-owned stores where food was much cheaper. There was a desire. You can also get rid of the homeless, the unemployed. All of them must do business.

[Sancho_SP]

It doesn't make sense now. Food is now almost as available as water and air.

Homeless people and the unemployed do not want to work on the proposed conditions, but cannot.

In Russia, 26% of children live in families with incomes below the subsistence level, indicated in a study by Rosstat.

According to the department, the number of citizens with incomes below the subsistence level is 13,5% of the country's population.

And what about the children? Children are an extension of their parents. Why are parents beggars? And who are the others?

Any card system is a burden on the budget. That is, the burden of costs will fall on workers in the form of higher prices. Dot.

[depressant]

Igor, the rise in prices is a matter of course. But the program to help the poor is separate. According to economists, it will require 4,7 trillion rubles next year. But there is no such money in the budget. Tax collection in 2020 dropped significantly compared to 2019. Therefore, according to the testimony of the central press, at the moment the Federation Council is discussing the issue of increasing the income tax of those individuals who receive a salary of over 50 thousand rubles. In addition to the increase in personal income tax, it is also planned to increase the VAT. It turns out that the less poor will share with the poorer, and in the interval between them, as usual, the rich are additionally fed by the theft of collected funds. I have no doubt that everything will be so. Well, Gazprom will also improve its always unprofitable business, and others.

[Virus-free crown]

In the United States, in the spring and summer of this year, in the midst of the first wave of the pandemic, they organized food distribution points for the poor - you just stupidly drive up in your car and they give you rations for a week in advance, you just need to show your driver's license ... We are not that rich country, so the idea with a card set of products - great idea! A lot of people have already lost their jobs or incomes have dropped dramatically ... so I'm in favor !!!

[Sahalinets]

Well, there are food stamps in the States. And formally, you can't buy booze and stuff on them. But in fact they are exchanged for money with a small discount and forward for smoke, beer, and what is heavier.

Now there are electronic cards in many states, it is no longer so easy to exchange.

[martin-159]

It seems to me that as soon as coupons are introduced, the prices of these products will instantly jump.

Yes, it was all already, passed, in our city social shops (stalls) still remain in some places ..

[iouris]

Many run the risk of becoming "have-nots" because world food prices will rise sharply due to a number of objective (and "subjective") reasons. Price surcharges (especially for meat) will be introduced for "harm to the environment" (cows are declared to be almost the main source of CO2). Rising world food prices will lead to an increase in exports of grain and other products and to a decrease in opportunities for food imports.

[evgen1221]

Not so long ago I was talking about the introduction of cards for products that, according to the mantras of the liberals, were declared the horror of communism and, in principle, are not possible in the capitalist country. Vangoval with a certain amount of irony. But it turns out that it is possible for ours, though I didn’t think that it would be necessary so quickly)))) Now I wang that this is implemented through the traffic light network and for sure it will not even come close to everyone in need due to a lot of inquiries and red tape. In general, the need for cards is due to the inability to regulate the market and unwillingness to use power to limit the appetites of sellers. It’s easier for them to go with the flow - they’ve sailed before the cards. And they will introduce them not only to the poor, of whom the number is growing, but with such a pace and quality of guidance we will also reach digital workdays soon.

The driving motive under capitalism is greed. This motive is simple and understandable, which means it is strong. People may resent the existence of a system that functions in the interests of the greedy, but at the same time, these same people clearly understand the purpose and meaning of such a system, because it is logically arranged. And everything that looks logical is perceived by a person as natural.

Therefore, only moral arguments are always put forward against the capitalist system, such as that "the system is bad, a shame", and what exactly the system is "bad", people cannot rationally explain. An explanation that goes back to the level of sensory, emotional perception is not a qualitative argument for the rational, judicious world of people. Therefore, the opponents of capitalism have a deliberately weak position in the dispute.

Capitalism, like any other economic system, the purpose of which is the disproportionate distribution of resources and services in society, only then cannot be embodied in reality when the unnatural, unnatural and illogical nature of greed receives a logical and rational explanation. After that, greed itself at the official level will be declared not the norm, but a deviation up to the disease with appropriate methods of responding to its carriers in the form of compulsory treatment or, if such is impossible, life-long isolation from society. Until this happens, the world will be dominated by an abnormal system that directly indulges the desires of abnormal people.

Have mercy, gentlemen, the XXI century is in the yard.

Have our reformers pre-reformed to ration cards? And how beautiful they sang: "Everything blooms, everything smells!"
Although, everything goes with a frightening pattern, if someone watches not only TV.

And, by the way, it is these “food stamps” under the nationwide Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) that have existed in the United States for more than 80 years, which are so often presented to us as the standard of well-being and prosperity.

Who would have doubted. Now I understand why we watched with such frenzy the election of the next "master" of the world. For our rulers, the "beacon of civilizational" ideology is rising to the West, which they project onto their own country, even if slavery is again introduced into the United States and for any offense they will tear the slave with dogs and scalp the Indians.
Something I do not remember the times in the era of developed socialism of such "effective" measures as cards, even when Andropov came and began to tighten the screws, until the ghoul from the "liberal wing of the party nomenklatura" Mishka Labeled, seized power.
And so and yes! The XNUMXst century is in the yard, but we have a course of returning to the origins of world civilization, they seem to us closer to us.
