One of the first universally recognized successes of Vladimir Vladimirovich is the tax reform. The number of different taxes is reduced by 3, 6 times – from 54 to 15. The budget is filled with more budget. A social explosion (rising raw material prices is too obvious for everyone) is prevented.
On December 1, 2001, the Unity movement, the election blocs “Fatherland – All Russia” and “Our Home – Russia” merge into a single liberal-conservative political party, “United Russia”. Interestingly, the words-antonyms “liberalism” and “conservatism” are somehow united in one. Giant all-embracing party like the CPSU uses the administrative apparatus of the state, and its financial apparatus, to achieve its own (not necessarily coincident with the wishes of the people) goals. Putin is not directly a member of the union, but so-called. EdRo is focused on supporting this particular leader. Some points of the original Manifesto of the Party are interesting:
…By 2008, each family will have its own comfortable housing, worthy of the third millennium, regardless of the level of today’s income.
…In 2005 every citizen of Russia will receive his share from the use of natural resources of Russia
…By 2010 the transport highway St. Petersburg-Anadyr, Tokyo-Vladivostok-Brest and other
…By 2017, Russia will be the leader of world politics and economy.
Later this (already sent to the regions) document as it is obscured. Only classical is expressed, expressed by numerous vague phrases “Path of National Success” (2003). A characteristic phrase: “… The modern accounting approach to the economy must give way to strategic planning, the ability to see the economic perspective and unite the country’s efforts around the real points of economic growth.”
In December 2004, V. Putin abolished direct elections of heads of regions. Somehow he links this one-person unconstitutional decision with the tragedy in Beslan (the capture of the children’s school by Chechen terrorists). In April 2013, following the order of V.P.P.‘s successor, Dmitry Medvedev, the election of governors “returns”, but it turns out that the regional parliaments “voluntarily” renounce them. By April 2006, 66 out of 88 regional leaders became members of the pro-presidential United Russia party.
Simultaneously, the transition to elections to the deputies of the State Duma is carried out exclusively on party lists. Self-nominees from single-mandate constituencies, which, for example, enjoy serious support from the people on the ground, independent of the “corporate ethics” of this or that party, can not be found in the State Duma. Only the party apparatchiks remain – or people taken solely for “beauty” (boxers, gymnasts, actors, etc.).
The number of officials at different levels, from 2000 to 2008. (including state corporations licensing, registering and controlling bodies) is increased 2.2 times, to almost 2 million people. To pay for their work, they spend about 1.2 trillion. rubles annually. The main problem, however, is not the number, and not the high salaries (the deputy minister in the RF officially receives 106 minimum wages, in Europe, civil servants of this level – 3—4). The main thing is that the Russian official is installed on the fact that he is simply obliged to prohibit something, not to cultivate, and to promote a useful work.
In 2013, in response to the “Magnitsky list”, which freezes foreign accounts of the figures of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Antimonopoly Service, the Federal Tax Service, the Arbitration Court and the Prosecutor General’s Office, involved in frauds with money laundering and the murder of lawyer S. Magnitsky with the pre-trial detention center, n. “The law of Dima Yakovlev.” The countries of the USA and Western Europe are deprived of the right to adopt Russian children (whom no one else in the Russian Federation wants to take) children.
The law is given the name of a Russian boy who died in the US as a result of a tragic accident. Meanwhile, from 1991 to 2006 in Russia 92 thousand children were adopted, in North America and Western Europe – 160 thousand. In Russian families only 1,202 children die in official statistics (not taking into account the lethal outcome of various diseases) during this period. In addition, in the USA and Europe, “refuseniks” are usually seriously ill, disproportionately better medical care (survival is three times higher). Thus, all those people who are involved in the enactment of the law of Dima Yakovlev (in a society known as the “Law of King Herod”) are the cause of the painful death of at least 400 (chained to hospital beds) children per year.
…Yes, we (almost) all very much loved Vladimir Putin. It was, it was, my friends. More than even Gorbachev and Yeltsin, until about the middle of their term of government. And, perhaps, “the law of King Herod” was the first, barely audible bell “here something is wrong.”
One more thing… The president states that “there are no troops in the Crimea”. Maybe this is an important tactical move. The game with the words “troops – special forces”. We are sure that the reunion of the Crimea is a sure and inevitable step, due to the fact that part of Russia, alas, can be directly influenced by the Evil One. For the sake of getting rid of sweeps of the Crimea, the voluntary neo-Nazi battalions of Ukraine can be paid a serious price. But the President is deceiving. Open. International community. We are with you.
We can say everything as it is, and we would have agreed. But, the beginning of the Big Lie is laid. Lying is transmitted to the lower layers of power. Further – there are secret burials of the heroes of Russia who died in the Donbass (photos piled in four layers, where in the medical unit, the remaining nameless people). You know, friends, it’s hard … to see on the corpses distinctive signs … a homemade emblem, a scarf, one must think, someone given, something that was once important to this person, and all the like. In Syria, in less than four hours, 400—500 fighters of the Private Military Company of Wagner (registration in Argentina) are killed, who were left without air cover, and, at the request of the Coalition declared by the signalman as “nonexistent”. They are beaten as defenseless kittens by military drones of Americans. You can find these frames on the web, what the whole world saw. But, the Russian Foreign Ministry (the notorious Zakharova), the Press Secretary of the President Peskov again broadcasts something unintelligible.
…In March 2014 in Crimea, a referendum on accession to Russia is held. The Russian Armed Forces support this endeavor. All is correct, otherwise the sunny peninsula can turn into one big Odessa House of Trade Unions. Ukraine is deeply mentally ill (even more so than Russia). Whatever it was, the countries of the West are imposing sanctions against Russia. Foreign banks stop lending to some Russian enterprises. Its gold and currency assets in the Russian Federation are hundreds of billions of Euros-dollars, but they are kept (so that they are not stolen), in securities of the same Europe and North America (for interest percentages per annum). In one way or another, the President and his oligarchic friends seem to take this attitude very offensively, and then, of course, they introduce “unsanctions”. The main purpose is to establish an “iron curtain” for foreign food products, medicines and certain types of high-tech products. The damage to the people of Russia from the “unsanctions” of the President exceeds the damage from sanctions (if it exists at all) in tens or hundreds of times.
The third bell is a demonstrative destruction of foodstuffs stopped at the customs. It’s strange that all this blasphemy is permitted by a man whose own brother died of hunger and disease in besieged Leningrad. Then all these calls merge into a single alarming buzz. The entry of troops into Syria results in the death of people, considerable financial expenses, deprivation of citizens of the Russian Federation for an inexpensive and high-quality holiday in Egypt, then Turkey.
In August 2016, contrary to the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the laws that emanate from Moscow, then (the imitative
