Sociology says about the loss of citizens of the Russian Federation of causality

The media give the data of the survey conducted by the research centre “ROMIR”: 70% of respondents called the main problem of inflation, 66% — poverty and low wages and 41% unemployment. More than a third of Russian citizens are concerned about corruption. In fact, every fourth participant of poll has been ranked among the acute problems of rising crime. The weakness of state authorities, concerned about each fifth Respondent, which is 8% higher than two years ago. 14% of respondents complained of delays in payments of salaries and pensions.

That is, if you believe the poll, most Russians are in a state of moderate debility, as is unable to associate cause and effect. If you believe the poll. And if you trust how it is made.

It turns out that the main problem we have is inflation! And as if by itself, not arising from any economic structure or system of government, slozhivshiesya in the country. That’s just the ruble depreciates, and prices are rising – this despite the fact that the government just reported that for the first time in many years, in July we had deflation! Small, but it happened. That is, the citizens seem to complain at all for nothing?

The second position – poverty and low wages. Again, alone, out of connection with the distribution of social wealth, outside the system of government in which the lower classes is not something that can’t influence the policy of the tops, their tops even simply do not hear. Well, or say something like “no money, but you hang in there” or “if you have a low salary, go do business”. What figure of 66% of suffers said that the government really does not want to hear, although the problem is universal.

The third position is the unemployment rate, 41 percent. But if you look at the official statistics, the figures is quite different. The official unemployment rate in Russia as of September 2015, according to Rosstat (accounting, ILO), amounted to 5.2 % of the economically active population or 4.0 million people. The number of unemployed registered in the employment Centers, and less 917 thousand as at 18 Nov 2015. Why 41 percent are so worried, when the unemployment rate is most probably low in Europe? Or state statistics uchityvaet doesn’t want some all the obvious things?

Corruption is important, of course. Here the Governor of Sakhalin have scored who knows where a lot of money, and bought watches and pens. How is that not bothering me at Taganrog, when in the heat of 38 degrees will shut off for a day on the water? Even the new Governor of Sevastopol said that the main thing that worries him is the fight against corruption. The cost of products, the real unemployment rate, bad roads – it is nothing, but the corruption… Maybe he is right to go to work in the organs, which in the Governor’s-chair suffer?..

What about the increase in crime is clear, although it is not clear to everyone – what is crime? Robberies on streets or violations of immigration laws immigrants? It still is one category of “crime”. But if the first of all cares, to the second case is solely concerned citizens.

But each fifth worried – you think! – the weakness of state power! In a country where state power is everywhere, from the policeman on the corner to the officials taking children because of an empty fridge, this government, it appears, is not enough! Need more. Apparently, that was planted not only for trying to write something, but for trying to read. So the penalty for an unauthorized rally was not two average salaries in the industry, and so immediately lost the apartment and latest pair of clothes. That Putin has been ruled the country for 16 years, and 116 well, not that Putin or another, but that is certainly Putin. And, perhaps, smack on Saturdays all teachers, demanding to increase salaries, workers drank away the last penny and even those who incorrectly responds to polls.

And only 14 percent concerned about the delay of salaries and pensions – that is, if a person is eating to buy it, it’s not very important. Here the weak government and high inflation – Yes…
