Hi, Victor
They did it before when they called themselves communists.
They do it now, calling themselves democrats. I dunno how
they'll call themselves in the future, but I'm sure as hell
they'll do the same. Same guys, same modus operandi.Official devaluation is 7%. I obtain the course only through
street exchange rate, it changed from ~27-28 to ~28-29. Prices
increased a bit. Looks like after all the previous rip-offs
there's not enough of extra-money to create a buying panic.
And most of this extra money are not in roubles already, sure.
One can say economics is stable as in the grave.IIRC, in most cases here prices follow the course with some
significant latency, so there's a small benefit for those with
dollars. There are also goods with prices linked to dollars
immediately, most of the audio/video for example. :)

It is hard to believe many people have to survive on $20 a month.
<<<Been there done that. Unforgettable memories indeed.
>>>
As in an old story, the government should start worrying when people
stop crying and begin to laugh instead. I think I know what you mean,
my mother is supposed to survive on about $17 a month pension. Some
of her friends get one half of that. It is quite fortunate that we
can help her.
<<<I'm not a rebel I think. You mentioned microscopic pensions, it's one of
very few things that hit my nerve, making me feel somewhat "bolshevik".BTW about laughs, I had a good one around this devaluation. The TV cut from
which I got my information about it, was an interview with boss of Central
Bank. In the end reporter asked him what advise he'd get to the people
to store their money safe. Guy answered "v bankah!" It took me few seconds
to realize that he didn't specified whether this means "in the banks" or
"in the cans", then I had a ROTFLMAO. Style of Delphi Oracle exactly.
>>>
PS. When is the show? I am not sure if I will be able to come - a lot
of things to do here.
<<<March 2-5. As usual, day #1 is for pro guys only, the rest is for everyone.
Since you mentioned that you're not certain that you've seen "Polyoty",
there's another one worth checking, "Khrani menya moy talisman". It's
another product of that nice Balayan/Yankowsky collaboration.
regards, gnat
