    I would buy a tent and a pickup truck. Then I’ll set up a tent in the back of the pickup truck. And I’m going to have a house on wheels without door hinges because tents don’t have door hinges. Crazy enough?

    I’ve met quite a few people who say that although there were disadvantages, on average it was ok to live in Soviet Union after the 60s. If you asked around in Russia, there would even be those who praised it. Because there were some advantages like not bad free education and free medicine, for example. In some good times, you could even get a free apartment or a piece of land. And now, under capitalism, it is very difficult to earn an apartment in the most developed cities.



  • Some Anecdote:

    "An indigenous resident in a southern resort lies under a palm tree in his homeland, resting. A businessman from Europe walks by.

    – Here you are, lying around, but you could climb a palm tree and pick bananas. Go to the market and sell.

    – And why?

    – Well, why! With the money from what you’ve sold, you’ll buy a cart and you’ll get a lot more!

    – But why?

    – Yes, you can already buy a truck from what you’ve sold and carry large volumes, then hire workers, and you’ll lie there and do nothing!

    – And I’m already lying there and doing nothing :)"

    No offense intended. It’s just important not to get hung up on the one point of view for to long. :)
