Making toys - that is what employees from one Russian car company might soon be doing in an attempt to get through the tough times.
That's the alternative proposed by the Russian government to prevent staff cuts at car maker Avtovaz.

  • Having Avtovaz workers make toys is a terrible idea. This was probably proposed as toy production requires little investment (ie, tooling and equipment), but would keep a lot of people busy.

    Avtovaz would be far better to consider making agricultural equipment as the ag market is still okay ... and Russia imports a lot of this machinery. Production of oil field and construction equipment should also be considered.

    Ramp up domestic production of products that will actually build your economy.

  • The world of Employer and Employment are dead, why we still keep trying to awake a dead horse ... ?

    The new age is here, there's no need of working anymore, stop that nonsense and start managing those resources using the scientific method.

    Zetigeist movement is the third party ...
