Ukraine won – What awaits Russia and Belarus – Russia News / HB
Life of an inhabitant of Ukraine, Russia and Belarus after the victory
Here Ukraine has won. Driven the enemy out of their land. With honorary burials of heroes, immortalized their memory. The changes are back. The ruins are being removed. Cities are being cleansed of the filth of burnt enemy weapons. The spirit of an agreement for the Motherland easily transformed into the spirit of restoration and creation. The entrepreneurial spirit spread its wings with might and main. The country has turned into a huge modern construction site and manufactory.
Ukraine is united, dynamic, multilingual, admits to all confessions, is open to everyone who comes here with investments, technologies and positive ideas. Look, Elon Musk started building his factory. Next to Volkswagen and Volvo. In another area, there is a furniture cluster. Ikea and Jysk are in full swing. Agree on the number of new industrial sites Samsung and LG. Nestle, Anheuser-Busch and Kraft Heinz cover food quality standards. Maersk and Schenker are tightening the logistics standards of Ukraine to Europe. Novartis and Hoffmann-La Roche are recruiting employees for new pharmaceutical facilities. American USG and Swiss LafargeHolcim in the emergence of a fresh stream in the production of building materials. And banks, investment companies – they swarm in the eyes.
Ukraine takes, invests, uses more than $300 billion. This money is for placement of banks, governments and international organizations, international corporations. These are the resources of millions of Ukrainian entrepreneurs. For the first time in history, in the course of exercising economic freedom, they saw a people’s meeting, the Ukraine of their dreams – the new West.
And at this time in Putin’s Russia, Lukashenka’s Belarus horror, gloom and darkness. Food shortages, money rickets, and white blood cell production. The flight of brains, the permissiveness of thieves, the rage of cops, nomenclature cattle and ideological dogs. Price fever, a zone of continuous decline, for access to goods – a bribe. At the forefront is a club, hazing of a commoner, instead of God – devilry. Salary – the cat cried, instead of a pension – a material ritual – but the country is ruled by a feudal lord.
Wanted a simple man in the street to take a mortgage loan? Please 80% APR
Something good, you need to buy high-quality equipment, raw materials, components or ingredients. There were no such cases either in Belarus or in Russia. Sanctions are not bought, and smuggling will obviously not replace everything. There is Chinese, but it is worse. There is its own, but it is even inferior to Chinese. This applies to everything from sausages to cars.
Consider the life of a simple man in the street through four plots. There are, of course, much more of them, but these just clearly understand what awaits people in totalitarian Russia and Belarus.
Story #1. A layman comes to a clinic/hospital. Make an accurate diagnosis? There are no drugs, reagents and spare parts for high-quality equipment. Therefore, doctors will work with what is at hand. A course of treatment? Again, either high-quality imported drugs disappear, well, or generics, and they are often, at best, like a placebo. But there are serious illnesses. They require precisely the exact definition of the remedy. Children, too, cannot be treated anyhow. Yeah, VIP stewards of someone else’s (politicians, officials, security officials) will get high-quality medicines through smuggling, but for a simple layman, such a channel will either be closed or very expensive. This is how Putin/Lukashenko sharply increases the loss of the population, the quality of health.
Plot number 2. The inhabitant comes to the plant / factory. And they say to him: “There are two days of work a week. The rest is a vacation at your own expense. You have a monthly salary (so as not to spoil the statistics), but you will only have money in your pocket for six working days a month.
In Russia, already in 2022, they will be forced to leave for the homes of guest workers. For the first time in many years, you can meet a janitor of Slavic appearance in a big city. At the beginning of 2022, unemployment in Russia was 4.3% or 3.2 million people. At the end of the year, it threatens to exceed 12 million. The number of poor people from 20 million people in 2021 will grow to 80 million people. people at the end of 2022. This is if in fact, and not according to government reports.
Scene number 3. A customer comes to the store. His wallet has become noticeably thinner, and the prices of goods on the counter – plus 30-50%, and for imports – at times. Soviet trade is quickly remembered, when cheap goods were not sold, but thrown away on store shelves. Internet trading? So from the payment system will be disconnected. It will be possible to buy something for cash from smugglers through a network of entrepreneurs controlled by them, but the price tag will be biting. Wholesale deals exclusively with indoor VIP-stewards of someone else’s building. Where there is no competition, where the nomenklatura-power agreement flourishes, not a single user is worried about the well-being.
Scene number 4. A man in the street comes to the bank. He wants to take his deposit, and he wants the currency: “A decision has been made in the name of improving the economy to freeze your deposit. If you want, you can give out in rubles, but due to the dollar exchange rate and taxes, you will lose 30–40% of your deposit when withdrawing.” And this is not the worst for the script contributor. It is possible to implement a revolution, which a few years ago with special pension savings – to take and nationalize. One can mournfully remain silent about what his ruble deposits have already turned into.
Wanted a simple man in the street to take a mortgage loan? Please, 80% per annum. Mortgages are chilled. Would you like to take out a consumer loan? Please, taking into account all payments 1500% per annum. Consumer lending craftsmanship. With severe restrictions combined with a foreign exchange approach, restrictions on holding prices in manual mode (this will certainly concern the exchange rate of the ruble) the exclusion of currency traders and the “black” market of currencies. He, of course, will be under the roof of security chiefs or businessmen of the gangster world, who, as we remember from the 1990s, work hand in hand with the police / special services.
This is the kind of life that the Russian and Belarusian layman will have. Ukrainians are forcing forward, to the existence, the industrial development of modern civilization. Putin’s Russia and Lukashenka’s Belarus are accelerating their march to the rise of Venezuela, Iran and Northern Europe. Only a categorical protest, civil and political activism of the Belarusians and Russians themselves can change this scenario.
