The Federal budget of Russia for the second year bursting at the seams due to low oil prices. Depraved rich hydrocarbons of the financial and economic system does not return to normal, regardless of the principles of austerity.
1.5 trillion rubles, or 4.6% of GDP budget deficit do not fit in any proclaimed Executive standard. Matter in the walls of the Cabinet that the country has adapted to new economic realities, the statistics suggest otherwise. On the eve of the elections, 2016-year Treasury lion’s share of subsidized regions empty. The governors with special care when handing out populist promises, depriving the campaign of “United Russia” much-needed drugs. In a time when presidential and parliamentary electoral cycles coincide, the layman could “overfeed” almost as a single unit of campaign materials, after which you can relax good 3.5 years… Today Terry benderovschina and construction of new Vasyukov somewhere in Syzran already beaten personally by the President of the country, which in 2 years will have to suffer for the negligence of its own employees.
Unpopular reforms in the current situation, not aside. And the budget must be filled here and now, to avoid in 2017-2018, the years of sabotage on the part of doctors, teachers and workers of the defense industry.
One of the draconian measures that will help to make ends meet, and simultaneously infuriate the electorate on the eve of elections – the new rates of property tax that will gradually increase. Wolves howl owners of the old “Professor’s” treshek in the capital Kutuzovsky Prospekt. To pay 40 Grand a year just for the fact that the honored grandfather wrote to you the real estate initiative, which kills and impoverishes.
For owners of elite housing worth 300 million and more than 1.5 millions in receipts, most likely, will not be a problem. It would be possible to christen this initiative as a veiled tax on luxury and attempt to take away the bread from the leftists, if not one BUT… along with the additional bags for 500-600 rubles will pay public sector employees from provincial towns only because they want to eat.
Social liberals from the party “Yabloko” is, where carousing. And he “for the poor and for the Russian” Vladimir Zhirinovsky their “two cents” inserted.
You will not forget and will not forgive Medvedev and the “United Russia” catchphrase “there’s no money but you stay there”. Announced the indexation of pensions by 4% and the freezing of savings now working with the Russians – the best electoral gift for the Communist party and “Fair Russia” could not be found.
Both parties exploit the win-win rhetoric of the Greek SYRIZA, calling on political opponents to turn the water into wine. The fact that it was done by only one person and that for these tricks nailed to the cross officials of the Roman Empire – no one cares. And, in principle, rightly so.
The government gave firm guarantees of the resumption of growth in pensions in 2016-m to year, therefore, the entropy in the ranks of the elderly and law-abiding citizens will with high probability increase, because it is not the last surprise that their “delight” this summer.
From 1 July across the country will rise in price housing and communal services. A few percent get heavier tariffs for electricity and gas. If the increase of 4-5 per cent related purely utilities receipts, no one would have noticed this invasion of the family budget. The fun begins just in August, when most of the products of our food baskets, instead of seasonal, cheaper, suddenly, become inaccessible for the Russian poor, because the increase in the cost of energy ensures the acceleration of inflation.
Do not bypass the Russian opposition and the imminent privatization of state property. Having a positive emotional connotation in Western countries, the economic term in Russia is a dirty word, if not to say obscene. It was held from us for a penny in conditions of economic collapse. Its deployment in the Russian context is tightly associated with the restoration of the Yeltsin era, in which few people vote.
Analyzing the electoral sympathies of Russians sociologists “Levada-center” has already given United Russia 35% historically low votes against the same number supporting the right and lipopolysaccha projects LDPR and the Communist party – 14 and 21%, respectively. Let both parties show loyalty to the political course of Vladimir Putin and willingness to work in the political system, the thrust of the population to protest the vote is obvious.
Can the power to avoid is described in the material issues and shy away from difficult decisions? Quite a Yes, but in their place will be a new headache will become a tangible prospect of a technical default of most regions of the country, a cascade of bankruptcies of subsidized state enterprises, and a shaft of social problems in the medium term. Prime Minister Medvedev and United Russia are facing a difficult choice – to sacrifice a part of the electoral rating here now in order to get a chance to get out then, or “to squander” all at once a few years later. “Win the lottery”, as in the fatty hydrocarbon, the ruling political force is no longer in sight.
