ronysib, Russians say they're happy, just because they never got anything else, anything better, to compare: They had immense misery, poverty under communism. Now they can go x dinner once per month and have a 10 year credit at 20%interest rate to buy a cheap car, with their average salary of 20.000 rubles (700 $). And they think that's paradise! Without thinking that, being the 1st world producer of oil, gas, wood, platinum, and the 2nd of gold, diamonds, they should deserve smthg better. Thei
there are two stories - the myth and the reality. The most recent opinion poll carried out by VTSIOM, the All-Russian Public Opinion Research Center, published this week, indicates that most Russians are satisfied with their lives.While many Western analysts and media outlets continue to pour out gloom and doom stories about Russia and to concentrate on minor demonstrations, the fact of the matter is that opinion polls conducted in Russia reveal that a growing number of citizens are happy.

Russia's officials have issued work permits in the country only those foreign companies that pay them bribes. Some examples of corruption scandals:
- Ikea Fires 2 Executives in Russian Bribery Case
- Russia Launches Criminal Probe Of Daimler Bribery
- HP Executives Under Investigation for Russian Bribery Charges
IKEA, Daimler, Hewlett-Packard, who's next?
