I wonder the fact that many of our citizens still believe the liberals. If you believe Medvedev, Chubais and Nabiullina — go to the cemetery: most of the people who believed the Russian liberals, already there. You at the cemetery will be in their company. But, nevertheless, many people seems to be sane, like adequate, when you visit a store able to take out the wallet to pay the money, take the goods, not forgetting him, and even take delivery able to open the door of his apartment key to cook — that is quite socializable — continue to trust the liberals?! It’s probably some kind of disease!.. Not long ago, one such, quite normal in appearance, people came up to me and said, “Listen, and remember, there was a project SKOLKOVO?” I said, “Yes, this gorgeous development project, there abound a lot of our great people, starting with the wife of Shuvalov and ending with Abramovich”. My buddy put it on the face of the shock, and he gasped: “what?!” It turned out that this man is not just mindful of the existence of the project “SKOLKOVO”, — the man remembers that this project was started by Mr Medvedev, and To the purpose if suddenly the price of oil will fall, with the help of the developments of this very SKOLKOVO to support and strengthen the Russian economy… As it turned out, this illusion is still prevalent, so I would like to remind that the creation of the SKOLKOVO pursued three basic objectives. First, it was luxurious, really great development project. We take a potato field — and increase the value of twenty times. Due to the construction of it campuses, strip back roads and other infrastructure — of course, at public expense. While telling everyone that there will be a spaceport of the future, bear and other wonderful nonsense. Remember, Medvedev had this mantra: “five “And”? That is, first these “And” there were four, but then it turned out that he some “And” forgot — in my opinion, “Intelligence” — and they became five. I think it was “Investment”, “Innovation”, “Infrastructure” and something else that nobody will remember. Maybe “Interest”, and maybe something else. All this has long been a dirty word because it was a cover of a different sort, in the best case, development projects. The second idea, which invested in the project SKOLKOVO, as far as I can tell, this is a classic “cut”. Mr. Chubais him not so long ago announced, saying at the Christmas party “Rosnano” and that “we have a lot of money.” And nothing for him it was not because he Chubais. Who will plant it — it is a monument! But the most outstanding achievements of some are: they have to build a plant for the production of crystalline, whether that of silicon, and the plant finally went bankrupt solemnly. In new York I was at the presentation along with representatives of SKOLKOVO — the young people who are at a very good English told me that they did a fundamentally new great battery for power. It is much cheaper than the ordinary but sold at the same price, because the SKOLKOVO project to develop the necessary money. And for its installation requires a complete reworking of all the transformer boxes. That is, for electricity providers not just no win — one loss. But these simple thoughts are the representatives of the SKOLKOVO never came. Why are they about all that stuff in America is unclear. Most likely, they “mastered the budget.” Profit the project “SKOLKOVO” has shown only in the result of revaluation of its foreign currency investments as a result of the fall of the ruble. All permanent losses in reality are completely income individuals. it is no Coincidence that Mr. Chubais has kept the status of “RUSNANO” as a government Corporation, did not privatize and sell “the effective investor”. But all things RUSNANO holds a management company, which is private. It is the apotheosis of privatization: when there is a formal government asset, funded, and managed by a private company in the interests of private “investors” that only divide the money without investing a penny of your own funds. And finally, the third idea of SKOLKOVO is not propagated through the media, but really was the original. It was a running idea of “private States”. The territory of SKOLKOVO was removed from under the laws of the Russian Federation. Good or bad doesn’t matter. It is important that Russian laws were not acted and do not act. I think that people who have their potato field was originally seized, confronted with this phenomenon first, but it is only my hypothesis. All issues, including litigation, inside decided by the Council of SKOLKOVO investors. Such is the “Soviet power”. The Russian Federation has a significant voice in this Council of investors, but not as a state exercising sovereign rights in the territory, but only as an investor, one of many who provided the land, infrastructure, and so on. That is, the attempt under the guise of “modernization” back in the middle ages and to create a state power which, even theoretically, belonged to those who invested. And this mechanism is, apparently, very successful, very beautiful — another thing is that reporting we do not see and do not see: it is “for their” is for owners. Here are three problems that, in my opinion, virtually decided the project “SKOLKOVO”. I’m sorry, what were “innovations”? Are you talking about? You that was a little two Chubais “Volga” on the voucher? You were a little “collateral privatization”? You little was the default of 1998? You were a little “reform” of the industry? You were a little of a “liberal Empire” and other innovations Chubais to finally, once and for all be sure: the liberals can not be trusted? Why would their words be taken seriously?! SKOLKOVO was not created in order to help the country. SKOLKOVO was created in order to help the “collective Chubais”. This task it fulfilled. And if anyone really wanted to deal with new technologies, everything would be different and much easier. We have 32 science city, based on them, or even one of them could do anything. If some quite famous people “throwing” you brazenly and cynically quarter of a century — do you will continue to take seriously their words, expect them to finally begin to fulfill its promises and obligations to you? It’s a little weird, a little naive and, in my opinion, amazing.
