Thanks for the answer. To begin with, self-moderation is evil for you? Do you think I will delete objectionable posts? I'm willing to give my word that, theoretically, only posts that are offensive or violate forum rules can be removed. If you want - if suddenly it comes to deleting posts - I will collect them in one post for "conservation". In a word, do not be afraid - we have democracy and not Russian totalitarianism with total control of everyone and everything Smiley
Why make a topic self-moderated, you don't trust the qualifications of moderators? I avoid posting in self-moderated topics, especially when the author is actively broadcasting a position other than neutral. Your position is definitely anti-Russian, it can be seen from your posts.


So I'm sure we will soon see a further collapse of the "strongest economy, the greatest power", which is actually an empty shell and whose statements are empty words Smiley
You don't need a PhD in economics to understand one simple thing. With all the desire, it is very difficult to go bankrupt, having a sharply positive foreign trade balance and a planned budget surplus. When you earn more than you spend, you don't have to worry about getting a margin call. This is a basic truth in the economy, something that you can reliably rely on and this soil will never leave you from under your feet. Your neighbor, who skillfully uses credit leverage and has a planned deficit budget, is likely to have a higher standard of living, he will have a newer and more modern car, a more spacious house in a more prestigious area, but in case of reputation problems and stains on his credit history - he will start in trouble, from which he can lose both the car and the house. But when you honestly earned yourself a car and a house, and paid for them in full, you can afford to give a damn about your credit history and not become a homeless pedestrian. Think about it at your leisure.


As practice shows, apologists for the Russian world often turn the dialogue into a farce and turn to primitive insults! So the moderation itself is exclusively for this. And your right to like or not like this format. It is your right !

About the second part. The example you gave - absolutely agree with you! Everything is as you say! Having more income than expenses is a great indicator!
Here's just a nuance - what does this situation have to do with today's Russia? Russia has a huge internal deficit, Russia has huge spending on war, Russia has accumulated huge liabilities in recent years, Russia has absolutely real losses in the hydrocarbon market, and, accordingly, a tremendous decrease in revenue. Tell me - and in such a situation, what kind of stability and prospects can we talk about? Let's just be realists and talk about real events and facts, and everything will fall into place!


This characteristic can be given to any country in the world. I'm surprised that you just wrote about Russia. Do you really not consider this country great? Difficult times always happen, but we know history and understand that in such circumstances countries are forced to change their usual path and become only stronger. I am sure that Russia will cope with all the difficulties in the near future.
