We are tormented, and we are attached?

We are tormented, and we are attached?


I read various materials on "VO". And little by little I had one thought. I want to bring it up for discussion. But first we will go through a quick step on the latest global events.

Ukraine and sluggish war in the Donbass

I did not accidentally separated these two concepts. Over the past few years, Ukraine has in one way or another pulled several billion dollars from Russia. These are discounts on gas, coal supply at a reduced price, and just stealing gas. The war in the Donbass forced Russia to send dozens of columns with humanitarian aid, officially and unofficially to help the militia. Anyway, this is again hundreds of thousands of dollars of spending from the reserves of the Russian Federation.

Sanctions

No matter how laughed at them and would not launch import substitution, this is again gigantic spending from reserve “pods”. The retaliatory sanctions of Russia, of course, also caused losses to the EU, but still both sides suffered damage. Who is more, who is less, it does not matter, there is damage. However, some areas remained untouched, with precisely those that are beneficial to Western capital, specifically the United States or individual entities, where there is no Russian technology. Coincidence?

Permanent stuffing misinformation

Day after day, for decades, Russia has been demonized. Unsubstantiated injections of inappropriate information, facts taken out of context, direct distortion of the same facts, ignoring or simply silencing people whose opinion is different from the line of the US State Department. This is a real war, no one even argues with this. But this is also a distraction of our resources to refute misinformation, reassure investors, these are difficulties in forming a positive image of the Russian Federation in the financial, political, and military spheres. Yes, and at the level of ordinary citizens of neighboring countries. We are really afraid. True, this fear comes from the channels, conducting, again, the line of the US State Department, but who will understand such subtleties?

Terrorist attacks

Over the past few years we have experienced many terrorist attacks. Many people died. But at least one Western country offered its assistance in the investigation? Yes, and their condolences look like something formally. But the terrorist attack in Paris was lit on all sides, and almost per second. A little earlier, the fall of our aircraft caused only a few lines in the newspapers and a couple of pages on the Internet. The last action, the disconnection of the peninsula of the Crimea from the power supply, cannot be considered as a terrorist act at all. This is a direct aggression with the connivance of the government of a neighboring country with the threat to the national security of the Russian Federation.

And again from our reserves funds and materials are allocated to remedy the situation. KamAZ trucks are driving again and planes are flying with generators, food, and fuel. Begins to build a chain, is not it?

War in Syria

Yes, I will make a reservation right away, I fully support this operation, reptiles must be crushed there so that they do not dig in here. And I am aware that finance is not the largest part of the MO budget. But we already lost there a plane and two people. This is again a loss. This is again from some reserves funds are allocated and go there. Yes, it is necessary, but still it is another link in the chain.

What tomorrow?

Question on 100500 million. What will be the handmade disaster tomorrow, in a week, in a month? What means will we have to throw at its liquidation? The chain of events with direct or indirect damage to Russia will continue as long as the West implements its plan to destroy Russia. You guessed what I mean. Every such event, catastrophe, provocation, strengthening of sanctions makes us spend our resources on their liquidation or mitigation. These are the resources that could be used to improve medicine, education, science and industry. We just do not give up. And the main director of this war of attrition is in the United States. Do I need to give examples, facts, evidence of this? They are full.

So maybe stop parrying blows? Maybe it's time to hit yourself? And even in the military strategy and full of examples when the defender won the battle, there is not a single example when he won the war.

I ask to speak on this topic. Do I draw the right conclusions? We do not take the military way, we take the starvation. So far, only financial and political. And when our resources run out or are exhausted, they will simply destroy us, as the USSR used to do. And it is unlikely that Western leaders will repeat the mistake, as with the USSR, this time there will be a “control shot”.

            Have I made the right conclusions? We can’t be taken by military means, they are starving us. So far, only financial and political. And when our resources run out or are exhausted, they will simply destroy us, as the USSR used to be.

            1. Well, the USSR was destroyed not "from the outside" but from the inside, there was not even a plan, just within 10-15 years after Brezhnev's death everything (absolutely everything) was stolen and everything was sold for a pittance for a hill, and the money went to foreign accounts , and as a result ... well, we all know the result.
            2. Already than, than - and by starvation laughing definitely not to take us!
            The question is 100500 million. What will be a handmade disaster tomorrow, in a week, in a month? What funds will we have to throw at its elimination?

        It has long been clear to the West that we cannot cope with an external blow. It did not work out among the Poles, Germans, French, Swedes and, in general, the entire combined power of the West. Only ourselves can defeat us and this is a fact. Feudal fragmentation as a result of which crushed Rus was crushed from the east. The time of troubles, when the Swedes and Poles squeezed land from us, and the Poles captured the Kremlin. The year 1917, when the Russian empire collapsed as a result of the February coup and everything that followed. 1954, WHEN AFTER THE DEATH OF STALIN, Khrushchev arranged a coup and seized power by directing the USSR to decay and death. 1991-92, when, using the putsch, Yeltsin with the help of the West destroyed the union, the consequences of which we still feel and will continue to feel for a long time. 2 Maidan in Ukraine, which is the same part of us as any region of the Russian Federation. ALL THESE WE DID FOR YOURSELF! Yes, the West actively pitted us and whispered, provided assistance to the warring parties, even helped them with troops and advisers. But the result was one and the slogans were always the brightest. Fortunately, I don’t know what it is for us, but it seems that God really loves us and sooner or later a smart and tough guy came in who again gathered us into a single state and gave a push that lasted for a generation or two. Ivan the Terrible, Petr1, Stalin, Putin, Ivan Kalita - all the time there is someone who gives everyone an ear and restores the country, after which it becomes even stronger. And the enemy does not come up with anything new to destroy the country. Salt riots, copper riot, revolution, the collapse of the union. Everywhere the same slogans are the same - we are in poverty here, and the government is living, it’s enough to feed the outskirts, the Caucasus, the Jews, the Chukchi, Central Asia, etc., plus the active removal of elites for the feeding trough. And voila - there is no dangerous Russia for a generation, instead of fighting with competitors for living space, it is trying not to disappear. May be enough? To raise Russia, one should not tear at throat rallies, but work 16 hours a day with one day off, like Southeast Asia. Then it’s very fast - in just 20 years, and this is VERY quickly the Russian Federation will sharply become stronger and will enter the top three in the economy. Do not want 16 hours a day with one day off? It means that it will be much slower, but now the sharp increase in Russia in comparison with the 90s is not in doubt for anyone - neither here nor abroad. Will the enemy intrigue us? Well, then he is the enemy. But if we do not fight among ourselves and shoot our country in the back, then every year it will become stronger. If you are interested in the dates, I can name 2 dates - 2018 and 2020. In 2020, the first five-year period will end and it will be possible to summarize, but already in 2018, AT MY APPLICATIONS BASED ON ACCESSIBLE INFA, the gain will become obvious - both in the economy and in the army. hi

      Everything goes according to plan! According to the plan of the puppeteers of the world capital .. WHILE we didn’t do anything that could help us move away from these plans, everything that happened (Crimea. LDNR, 08.08.08, import substitution) was a little bounce! The only thing where there is progress is the ARMY! And then everything is going extremely slowly, the supply of 2-3 airplanes and helicopters per month to the troops is very small in light of current events, the massive postponement of the timing of the adoption and acquisition of troops with new generation equipment, import substitution only in WORDS (changing the supplier's country), the lack of will to change the treacherous laws of the 90s, absolute sabotage in the economy, failure in ideological work, unwillingness to fight corruption (ay Vasilyeva, Serdyukov) and much more that pours water on the enemy's mill .. Yes, apparently our managing "elite" has disagreements with MK, but all this is bargaining when concluding a contract .. Decisive action is not visible, but you can see the beating of future preferences for your loved ones .. I don’t know, many will probably say this is like a plan like this, slowly and not noticeably reform the country, but you need to understand from that side not fools are sitting in these games too the experience is enormous! And if everything continues, then everything is going according to plan ..

      I agree with the author of the article, but as for "... it's time to hit yourself ..", then no. As a result of all these events - Crimea, the war in Donbass, Syria were damaged not only by the state, and even not so much by the state as by us - the people. And there is no need to talk about patriotism and so on. All patriotism ends when you walk into a store or receive a utility bill. This is where emotions begin. If before these events you came to the store with five hundred rubles and left with a daily set of products, now, perhaps, a thousand is not enough. This is one thing. And tell me that I'm wrong. What can be tolerated. How many ? A year, two, eternity? Man is mortal and wants to receive the benefits of civilization now and here, in the afterlife, they are not needed. Life is getting worse and worse every day (I don't take Moscow, here the crisis is not noticeable, judging by the Moscow news). Zamkadovskaya Russia began to live worse. Factories whose products were focused on Ukraine do not work, but twitch in search of new customers. And while they are twitching, there are delays in wages, a decrease thereof. Moreover, some enterprises or certain sectors of these enterprises began to close, and people, respectively, to the street. A job, good and highly paid, is difficult to find. Hence the well-being of some people fell below the plinus. And here the state throws up, then stops raising pensions for working pensioners, then the increase of public servants, then something else. So - you will not be full of patriotism, and it is necessary to stop the hap-handed theories.

In the DPRK, too, it is not quite smooth, everything goes to the fact that the old scheme "jeans and chewing gum" will work that way in 10-15 years .. we have been falling apart for 70 years, and the DPRK will be bought by this time ..

                  You're not right! For the world behind the scenes there is the same number of meanings as in Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan. It breaks where it is thin, the will to resist is suppressed in countries, after which they are attacked. All of the above are just methods of suppressing the will to resist (they missed a lot). Let me remind you of the Bay of Pigs, and in Korea, the United States did not shine.

              In fact, without the will to resist, no amount of help will help. Iraq was pumped up with Soviet technology and military specialists, but the lack of resistance sealed its fate. A recent example: Ukraine with 100% support from the EU and the US, the latter eats up without salt, loses to the militia. And about the "help" of the USSR, you can not stutter - everything was paid for)))

The main thing is that the authorities would not have been pissed off, they would not have begun to "hysteria" Every problem has at least one beautiful, simple, lying on the surface wrong solution. They are especially prone to commanders and leaders who are weary of a long period of trifling but numerous threats coming in at the same time.

    There is no doubt that they are starving. But all these attempts of a Western attack on Russia are based not only on the fact that Russia has its own opinion on statehood and the international alignment of forces, which it defends. The huge role is played by the resources (minerals) that Russia possesses and which haunt the west. As far as possible, our leadership is responding to the West with its pressure and provocations. But how to answer in such a way as to discourage encroachment on Russia without starting a war (the use of nuclear weapons) is really a question.

All this education is aimed at one or more unfastened for a comfortable life for migrants and the like. Now these "minds" are pulling up their children closer, bankers, bureaucrats and others. Examples? Miss mummy with her son-genius economist-financier-banker. Does he even know where his bank is ??? And these majors are even more on the side of everything, they lived with their parents-thieves, lived happily ever after, in full prosperity and complete impunity. Another example: at one private party of regional officials, everyone dressed up in the costumes of Caesars, special people, for money in the costumes of servants, getters, etc. One of the majors, in his own way, told the bartender-boredom-what else to come up with, can he become? I would like to ask all these Chubais, Gaidars and other trash, I would like to ask in the words of the President; Do you have any idea what you did then? In short, I would have banged the law, the President first THERE, banged like 45, without mercy and to the end. And then MO, the Army banged on the sickest for this trash, on the grandmother.

And the development of these countries was in contrast to the USSR. When the USSR did not become that development became completely different. Rather, degradation.

First you need to fully establish economic cooperation with the Asia-Pacific region, then start aggressively attacking countries, making their economies weak, then think about how to weaken America by all means. Yes, this work contradicts the strategy of Russia as a whole. But as you can see without answer we beat off endless punches, but we need to go on a counterattack. Everything is like in boxing ..

But what to do in reality is to create a military bloc, like NATO, but better. And for this, you must first find countries that are suitable, develop strong economic ties with them, your own currency, and then a military alliance. The principles should be completely different than in NATO, where there is one master, the rest are slaves. Only, like Putin, this is exactly what he is doing.

It was then that they were delighted when, with the help of their spies and proteges, they overwhelmed the USSR and began to rejoice and share our wealth, take out technology, scientific potential, destroy the army (what are the only BZHRKs or the unloading of a unique wiretapping system at the American embassy in Moscow). But then they didn’t finish us off, they decided that we would die further. However, this did not happen. And next time they will not make such a mistake.

    We were too keen on bombing from maximum altitude to avoid casualties. And we’ll have to change tactics if we want to turn the tide. Pilots would have to go down, hunt for fuel trucks, etc., use NURSs, guns ... We'll have to risk it if we want to quickly finish the job. And so it is visible - we get stuck.

      We need artillery now, not aviation! Artillery + UAV targets / spotters. Any aviation in the context of counterinsurgency operations is strategic. But only the Islamists do not have many "strategic" goals. All the bombers and sorties are not enough for all the militants, not to mention the cost of this, but the shells are another matter!

    It’s just better to work, earn more and pay taxes. I set this task for myself a year ago and little progress is being made.
    There are many problems in our country, but only its inhabitants can deprive them. If each of us at our workplace will increase efficiency by 10%, it will be cool.
    Yes, and there are positive changes (at us, because of the mound they are hammering, which is not) Remember, when scooping, heap of wheat was bought annually behind the mound of tuyev. And now?
    Although now it’s not easy, it’s tight!

    Ah, author, who do we have to beat first? One chatter and show-off. As long as traders sit in the Kremlin and the oligarchs rule, the country will rot. We cannot hang noodles on our ears correctly, but you want to get something serious from our shopkeepers. And so the raw materials appendage of the West. even to make the slightest ban on the supply of oil or gas, refer to the laws. But the West spat on all the laws and swears at us as it wants. It turns out that our rulers are doing the will of the West and have no mind. It’s sad, but true. We never responded with a blow to the blow. With one tomato and a mineral water Msya. And to deliver an energy blow, this will never happen. Your pockets are closer to the body. The prince is rather weak for such things.

    We have not threatened the West politically for a long time. We do not have the ideology and authority of the USSR to attract other countries of the world to any serious military-political blocs. We threaten only with our nuclear weapons, and the West seeks to exhaust us economically, so that we cannot reproduce them in the required quantity, while at the same time they are building up missile defense. When old heavy missiles with multiple warheads (Voevoda and UR-500) rot from old age, the goal will be achieved. Then we will not even have to ruin us, we simply will not pose a danger. We do not have a large or even acceptable ocean-going fleet, nor do we have huge ground armies comparable to NATO's.
    Complicating the situation for us is that our elite is not really engaged in the development of our industry, and even the weapons produced are still partially sold abroad.

    And let's take a look at our "so-called elite", where do they all go as soon as they pump up their careers? Where is their real permanent residence, where are their children, where is their money? Hence the conclusion - how they will develop the country where they are not going to live.
    Correctly they were forbidden to have accounts abroad, at home, etc. and still have and run there. It follows from this - the elite does not have a reason to quarrel with the West, since they can take away what they have gained through overpowering other people's labor. Go to any home appliance store, any car dealership, grocery - whose goods are worth. lie - you can study geography.

Remember the ending of Mikhalkov's film "12". What does Mikhalkov himself say in the guise of the chairman of the jury? "Yes, here (in Russia) everything is like this: we sat, potryndeli, smoked and that's it!" And as soon as it comes down to it, you won't collect anyone.

        It is sad in that, in addition to the author you mentioned (which I do not respect as an intellectual, at some meeting I drove a young boobie on the face with his foot when the guards held him), there was the great Pushkin, who described the Russian rebellion. This will be scary. Therefore, I think - the elite must see the edges and change their minds.

    A painful topic was touched upon, the solution of which in any case will drag on for many years. Yes, no one is hiding the fact that Russia is rising from its knees, getting out of the pit, as you wish. Of course, this is the real merit of VVP, Shoigu, Lavrov and a number of other team members, but the economic recovery will go slowly, neither shaky nor shaky and the reason for this is, first of all, the absence (grown over 20 years!) of the pro-Russian elite, you look at the composition of the Government, the State Duma, the Senate. A rough comparison, strangely enough, I remember from Soviet times: "who lived under the Germans, still lives ". And therefore, until the GDP with a team of true like-minded people, and not "shift workers", "bog workers" and "effective managers" disperses the pro-Western liberals, there will be no big progress towards strengthening the role of Russia in the international arena and improving the living standards of Russians.

    The article put a plus. And the fact that the author is perhaps young ... So what? Young people always do something that the wise of experience are no longer capable of. It’s not my business what’s going on in Russia, that's why I don’t comment on Putin’s message or an article about long-range fighting. I can only say that all this we have long since passed. For ten years now, every owner of the company has been sitting in his office and sees on his computer the movement of all his wagons and even fuel consumption. At enterprises everywhere there are cameras and cards, you won’t be late and you won’t go out to smoke and so on. But now is not about that.
    I don’t know how you position yourself in the world, I just know how we would like 25 million Russians outside Russia to like you would look. Strong, powerful and prosperous. Then it becomes easier for us both morally and physically. Respect and fear only the strong. Do not answer so that EVERYONE understands, respect will cease.
    In the meantime ... I can only see you being talked about for a week, waiting for the degree to drop. Maybe it’s for the better, because they know better with wise experience) But the reality is this, an old friend of the Baltic nationality comes up to me yesterday and speaks during a conversation -That you want to do with me, you can even hit, but the Turks are all the same well done that they shot down a Russian plane!

    The author, as it were, hints: “According to sociological polls, over 70% of Americans today consider the US government system to be ineffective. At the same time, about one in five is ready to support the separatists in their state, advocating the transformation of states dissatisfied with Washington, primarily southern ones, into separate states. Immediately after Barack Obama's re-election for a second term, German Die Welt noted that in each of the fifty American states, groups of citizens have formed, demanding the secession of their state from the United States: “In their conviction, the state keeps them in slavery, and they want to leave. no civil war. Texas tops the list is no coincidence. Texans are convinced that they feed, clothe and arm the rest of America. "California is the richest and largest state in America, the authorities of which are able to conduct independent foreign policy and already have an intergovernmental agreement with another state, signed several years ago by Governor A. Schwarzenegger and then Prime Minister th Great Britain T. Blair. Many residents of the state feel that they are being forced to pay the federal treasury “too much”;
    South Carolina, which continues its policy of independence from Washington, has already proposed, through Republican Senator Lee Bright, to put its money into circulation. Legislators in Virginia, Georgia, Missouri, Idaho and Minnesota are also taking similar initiatives. Several other states require the use of gold and silver as a settlement instrument; Louisiana, with a population of 4,5 million. Residents of this state have already turned to Barack Obama with a request to proclaim independence by their state and to form their own government; Alaska, which has its own Independence Party, whose representative Walter Hickle won the elections in 1990 and took the governor's chair " ?

    Good afternoon. You wrote: And although military strategy is full of examples when the defender won battles, there is not a single example when he won the war. But I don’t understand, but in 1941 weren’t we attacked and we didn’t win the war?! Either I didn’t understand something or you got it wrong. I don’t think anyone will argue that America needs to be destroyed. The question is how to do this without damage to us and the whole world. I think there is no way yet to strike and survive the response. And as for the resources we waste, it’s just ridiculous. It's pennies. It’s that we can’t establish a normal business for people within the country, that’s the problem. Billions have been lost on unrealized projects. We need a second NEP only with more radical relaxations and organization within the country. This is truly a threat. If we give people freedom, they will shower us with money. So it goes.

    I quote: So, maybe stop parrying the blows? Maybe it's time to strike ourselves? Please describe your suggestions for strikes. This is not malice, but my dreams. BUT. The worst thing is that yesterday's speech by the President on economic issues dashed all my hopes. I'll try to explain. First. It is small and medium-sized businesses that will help our economy. I DO NOT AGREE. Firstly. irrational placement. In our small town near St. Petersburg with a population of 45000 residents, 6 hairdressing salons (sorry, beauty salons), 5 pharmacies and 4 flower shops were opened. Do you need that much? They will object to me that the invisible hand of the market will regulate everything. I agree, it’s just that something is slow, but regulation will result in bankruptcy and wasted money. In addition, from our experience, the hand of the market can only reach into the pockets of the population. But the famous ancient factory is closed here, although its products were readily bought in Europe. As for small businesses as the engine of innovation in bringing them to market, this is not true. From my own experience. I don’t know for what reasons the director of a company (50 employees) in Germany decided to compete in the market with General Electric in promoting an innovative product to the market. To fine-tune, write a program and test this product, they invited me with the condition that the concept could not be changed (they say it was expensive). So what, after two years of torment we managed to create something out of what was there. The result is that we have 8 sales in Europe, which covered the cost of creating the device, but no more; General Electric has about 100, although their prototype, which they worked on for 8 years, tied the consumer to their consumables. Secondly, again these conversations about the decriminalization of business, they say, 200000 cases have been opened. and 15% went to trial. Did he ever wonder how many entrepreneurs contributed what they needed, and who needed it? That's where things fell apart. Anything near big money is criminal. And what Putin didn’t mention. These are expensive loans and inflation. Our Central Bank has chosen the fight against inflation as its goal, choosing expensive money as its instrument. But if someone took out a loan at an expensive price, he inevitably transferred the cost of the loan into the price of his product, accelerating inflation. Or am I missing something?

    What kind of blow are we talking about? Are we capable of defeating NATO? But even if they could, how to avoid a nuclear apocalypse? This is not a battle, but a war in which there must be a long-term strategy. Unfortunately, this strategy does not exist. Therefore, strategy implies the presence of a goal (building communism, protecting Orthodoxy, world domination) for which it is being developed. Our elite has no goal. Because she is an analogue of the Western elite and her only task is to get a place among equals. Therefore, the only thing our elite is doing is “starving out”, sitting deep in defense. But, as the author correctly pointed out, wars are not won by defense.

    To the author, Denis, I understand everything and agree with you, but I also understand one thing: humanity on our planet, developing under capitalism, and in its wildest and most primitive form, has come to its peak, followed by a decline. Gone are the days when using force it was possible to exist at the expense of other states, due to the fact that some, carried away by earning and printing paper and virtual wealth, lost their production, while others rose in their development to the point where they can resist shameless robbery. The law of coexistence on Earth based on “everything can be sold and everything can be bought,” that is, on money, has come to its logical conclusion. There is a global “breakdown” going on and at any moment, like in the mountains, an avalanche can happen just from a loud scream. It is possible and necessary to cause these avalanches artificially, where and when we need it. Perestroika is underway, be it wrong, which for some reason was destined to begin in our country. I don’t even want to think about how it might end.

    Indeed, everything seems to be just that way.
    The West is trying at all costs to undermine us economically.
    Nevertheless, they did not manage to drag us into a full-scale war in Ukraine and we suffer much less losses in the supply of humanitarian convoys.
    But, however, there is too much of all this at the same time, all this taken together does not allow the country to focus on internal, more important problems, but only aggravates them. One thing clings to another.


    But nevertheless, it seems to me that if it weren’t for our foreign policy (obvious successes), things would have been much worse on the domestic front. The West has long given up on Russia as a superpower, and what’s superpower - just as a Power. We were no longer expected to take such bold, quick and most importantly effective steps. And suddenly Russia began to respond to external threats with lightning speed and harshness. I hope that victories on the domestic political front are ahead.

That’s why the people of the temporary detention center believed it, but the oligarchs, sorry, but somehow they can’t believe it. If they cheated once with privatization, they will cheat again and again.

    This war has been going on not for decades, but already a centurion. This is resource extraction and a war of attrition.
    Nothing new. We must adhere to these conditions; these conditions can only be removed by a nuclear strike on the United States, which is impossible without the destruction of the planet.

    Katz {author} suggests giving up? I’m not a cheers patriot, but after I read this article, I have the feeling that this gentleman is looking here at VO for like-minded people and support for his article, and it somehow became unpleasant.

      Yes, it seems like quite the opposite:
      So maybe stop parrying blows? Maybe it's time to hit yourself? And even in the military strategy and full of examples when the defender won the battle, there is not a single example when he won the war.
      That is, he says that stop defending himself, it’s time to break in, and also asks the opinions of forum members about whether he is right.

    Everest doesn't care what happens there in the states. The main thing for us is the development of our Russia. And it needs to be developed from kindergarten, then school, etc. I still remember what I was taught at school, although I was not interested in anything other than aviation. My friend and I had all our notebooks, books, and even our diary painted with airplanes. I took the exams at KuAI, got the “theorem of three perpendiculars”, as luck would have it, it flew out of my head, so I started from the opposite and came to the beginning, proved it, it bounced off my teeth. What do I mean, we need to finish this Unified State Exam, we need to develop our brains, and not learn the answers. Maybe some subjects should be removed altogether. There must be interest groups, and they must be financed by the state; people simply do not have the money to pay, since, let’s say, doing aircraft modeling is quite expensive, but this is where big aviation begins. When this happened, there was a shortage of pilots in Russia, this is insanity. And so it is in any industry. It's time to think with your head.

    In principle, everything in the article is correct. It’s just that everyone attacked the author, because he does not propose to start a war in response. It would have been possible to shoot down a couple of Turkish planes, do you think a war would have broken out? But they would have fled and wiped themselves off. We would have apologized for our lack of understanding and that’s it... well, they would have imposed sanctions, they would have howled in the West. But next time our planes would have avoided the sanctions. this is all bullshit, if the tsar wanted it, he would have lifted it a long time ago. After all, the counter-sanctions that we introduced to the West are like kindergarten. They hit, first of all, completely different countries that were not interested in sanctions and did not make decisions to impose sanctions. In addition to gas and oil, we export a lot. The same potassium, so what? Have we stopped selling it to them? Or is it not needed in our fields? It’s just that the export of national wealth is in charge of the oligarchs and they don’t give a damn about the interests of the country. They won’t allow limiting the export of resources under the guise of loss jobs. And if they do limit them, they risk losing their accounts, real estate and everything that was acquired through back-breaking labor. And half measures won’t achieve anything, we’ll just prolong the agony. The next president will come, let him clean it up. After us, there’s even a flood. The main thing is to make money now, and to extend this state longer. and leave in time. Did you look at the seagull? Mostly all speculation and unproven, but there are also facts. Even if there is some truth in this, one gives up. Even the drool has stopped spitting

    The state treasury, consisting of taxes and natural resources, is depleted, but the pockets of the bribe-takers sitting around the treasury are not depleted. They quite legally drive the money to the West and continue to work for the benefit of the “small homelands” overseas. And here there is only controversy around the articles.

    How can you starve out a self-sufficient state? The US also has to shell out money. As they say: “There would be no happiness, but misfortune would help.”
    Question:
    - Will Russia benefit from the closure of the tourist destination to the Middle East? Of course, I’m not against free rest wherever anyone wants, but there is a limit to everything. Not today and not in a combat zone. And it will save people and currency.
    - Is business with Turkey (as well as with the West in general) a risk or useful? It hurts, but through downed planes and sanctions, Russia is waking up from hibernation.

    Yes, I also think that we need to invest in the development of separatism in the USA and the EU - then they will have no time for us, the Theory of Controlled Chaos, if I’m not confusing anything, these are ridiculous amounts - 5 billion over many years destroyed a prosperous country, turning it's in ruins! Even if it takes 10 years and other amounts, you can destroy both the USA and the EU if you take...

    Dear, how can you not understand that any export of money from the country (especially for services such as tourism) is a minus for the country. We must sell services and invest the money received in the development of the country. First of all, children. Some idiot came up with the idea of ​​turning children’s education into educational services. Does anyone really think that with this approach we will have Zhukovs, Gagarins, Queens, Zolotukhins, Mordyukovs, Goryunovs, Ryaz
    Anova, Putin after all? Who profited from raising and educating their children? A country that does not invest in its children has no future

    No matter how much they laugh at them and launch import substitution, this is again a gigantic waste of reserve money.

    Is investing money in the development of your own industry a waste?
    So, maybe stop parrying the blows? Maybe it's time to strike ourselves?

    Are you proposing to burn down Uncle Sam's ranch? There is plenty of poverty in Mexico, for example. It is easy to stir up sentiments about Mexico's lost territories. Any powerful drug cortel can act as the first strike force. If we want an attack on the mattress patrol on their southern border, no question. They can also take down their helicopter with MANPADS, at any whim, BUT ALL THIS IS FOR MONEY.

    1. Well, the USSR was destroyed not "from the outside" but from the inside, there was not even a plan, just within 10-15 years after Brezhnev's death everything (absolutely everything) was stolen and everything was sold for a pittance for a hill, and the money went to foreign accounts , and as a result ... well, we all know the result.
    Is the same story still going on now, albeit not so clearly?

      I don’t quite agree with you, but the fact that the Americans had a plan for the collapse of the USSR using a bloodless method is one hundred percent. This is a method of influencing the elite, its decomposition, which, by the way, is happening now. These are well-known cases with governors and deputies; these are astronomical salaries, irresponsibility and impunity. Well, they told me that the Union would fall apart back in the mid-70s, but we, being smart, didn’t believe it, or someone at the top didn’t want to believe it. If there had been a KGB team, I think it would have been different.

    In order to understand where our strength lies, we need to find out what our enemies fear most. And they are afraid of the restoration of the USSR with its international ideology of uniting the working people of all countries. And the first enemies on this path are our oligarchs, greedy for the people's goods.
    Vote for the communists and life will change. It won't be as fun, but it will be safe!

    we are destroyed and we lose.
    To understand this, you need to look into the future, and not rejoice at a full belly now.
    I definitely recommend watching Mikhalkov’s latest “Besogon” (the Internet can help) about world directing.
    Just listen.
