I often visit China. I know a lot of their natives. So just now I was drinking beer with a Chinese businessman who has visited many times in Russia, and in Europe, and in the States.
He speaks with sincere amazement: he was driving from St. Petersburg to Moscow, the road was simply impossible! Why is that?
I answer: I found something to surprise, brother. It's just that the road workers steal money, that's all. Just in the same St. Petersburg
plundered an entire budget for access roads to the new prison!.. Besides, the St. Petersburg highway is not the worst. You have not yet traveled along the M-6 highway, which is to Volgograd. There is real Stalingrad there!..
- So call the German company! - he opens America to me. - The Germans will make good roads for you and will not steal money. I just laugh back:
- What, you ate cockroaches? We cannot have German ones, we only have our own, manual firms can build. The result is a planned renovation every year from scratch. Not to mention the patching - this is generally a gold mine! Especially if you spend it on the eve of a major overhaul, when all the patches are cut off and, in principle, it is not possible to prove whether they were or were not. You see, any of our road, construction, economic projects is a cut of money. This is a standard that is strictly adhered to by both customers and contractors.
But the Chinese does not understand this. His eyes narrow even more - and he asks in all seriousness:
- Why don't you shoot them all ?!
But after I explained to him on my fingers the essence of our economy, the answer to this last, key question never occurs to me.
