I share your critics on current status of russia. Obviousley it has
developed more towards the system of USA than than to that of western
european countries. There are very rich people and very poor. The system
isn't really ruled by democracy but by money. There is no working social
net. There is no money for good education, no mony for the old and poor.
A lot of children don't learn to read and write at all. Very similar to
USA. That is neo kapitalism but neo kapitalism isn't democracy. It is
moneycracy. I wouldn't choose the for old USSR, I wouldn't choose todays
russia, I wouldn't choose for USA. Still EU is the best choice, as you
obviously decieded for yourself.
