Media published a comparative analysis of wages for labor in 1913 and today.
Differences in the size of salaries and cash allowances was so obvious that this information is almost not commented. Information without the insights and symbols of the promise is an empty hot air and scribbling. In my opinion, this information sense to compare the incomes from the activities involved in the production of material and intellectual values with the income of people employed in unproductive areas.
Here, for example, Colonel in the Russian Empire had a allowance of 325 roubles; today think it’s a lot… When I counted the amount of money allowances of a Colonel of the Russian Empire at the exchange rate of the ruble in Russia, it was – well, very much..
However, let me remind….
In the Soviet Union under Stalin, the candidate of technical Sciences, senior scientific employee had paid the same as a Colonel, and in the position of head of laboratory – had paid the General-major (Brigadier General). The ratio of wages remained until 1990. Today, candidates of technical Sciences almost disappeared along with the institutes where they worked. The salary of a Ph. D. today industrial research is often less than the employee’s worker. I wonder why sometimes the media ask the question – why is it that we are in the ass in part of scientific and technological progress and why intellectuals prefer depart to relocate from Russia ?
For reference – the salary is very average for the qualification of the engineer of BHS. Soviet Union in Singapore branch Appl.Mat. is about 5 (Five) thousand dollars at the cost of max in Singapore – $500. In Moscow, pensioners, veterans of labour, the Department of social protection officially declared subhuman, which are not subject to the legislation of the Russian Federation, no sanitary norms and Standards in terms of social safeguards. I sometimes funny to remember how in the 90s the police diligently bully small businesses for the regeneration of catalysts for petrochemical cracking, and now Putin on TV offers robbed then re-engage in the recovery of catalysts… Look, GN. Putin fools among their own!
My conclusions…
1. The state is interested in maintaining its status as a strong power, sets a fairly high level of income of those categories of citizens who determine this level of support. Hence the phenomenon: Stalin’s Ph. D. starley reserve had paid from Colonel to Brigadier General.
2. The fact that in a historical perspective going on with the state, is determined by the amount of income of the citizens of this state that provides the status of the state. No matter how much you pay colonels, and if the engineers income is meager, then such a state will become Russia in the 90s.
