It seems that despite the previously announced budget surplus, financial affairs in Russia are bad. Otherwise, it is difficult to explain the proposal of the Minister of Economic Development Oreshkin to completely abolish pensions.

The shock from last year's decision by the federal authorities to raise the retirement age by 5 years has not yet passed (for this reason, the authority of President Putin, who signed the law, which the majority of the population considers anti-popular), has sharply fallen. Many representatives of the United Russia party want to go to the next elections as self-nominated candidates (it becomes shameful to be a United Russia member). And now and then there are talks at the very top of the political in general about the complete abolition of pensions. Another shocking statement was made not by anyone, but by the Minister of Economic Development of Russia Maxim Oreshkin. You see, he found a similar experience in the history of China.

The minister spoke at the Second Stolypin Forum with an appeal to Russians to sacrifice the present for the sake of a brighter future. This cannot be called anything other than mockery. However, if the Russian authorities are ready to abolish the pension tax, then the Russians themselves will find how to dispose of this money and will save it for retirement themselves. Today, it is just something else that is obvious - in other countries (including China) pensions are several times higher than in Russia, and life expectancy is much longer. Oreshkin claims that China achieved economic success because it did not pay pensions to its citizens. The minister clarified that "historically, China has spent little to support the retirement age population."

Earlier, President Putin set a task for the government - to achieve high rates of economic growth, so that by 2024 the country will become one of the five largest economies in the world. The head of state called this a basic condition for a breakthrough in solving social, infrastructural, defense and other tasks. However, according to Oreshkin, this task is impossible at the current rates of economic growth.

It is worth recalling that pensioners and pre-retirees are the basic electorate of the ruling party in any election. However, after such statements by government representatives, the basic electorate can easily send this government, this parliament, and this president, who appoints such ministers, to hell.

By the way, not so long ago economists at the Higher School of Economics predicted that by 2028 the federal government will again have to raise the retirement age in the country, otherwise there will not be enough money in the budget. A huge question arises for the entire system of power operating in the country. If you cannot provide basic social guarantees, simply resign. Make room for those who are able to do this.

How tired of these freaks, already no urine to endure it anymore.
