Penalty battalions

Everything that exists is reasonable, but how sometimes it is not easy: to explain the rationality of being.

Take a simple example for starters. We quote one of the amendments made by unicorns to the well -known bill on increasing punishment for violations during rallies. We read slowly.

The organization of a massive event and (or) movement of citizens in public places that is not a public event, as well as preliminary agitation and (or) calls of citizens to the simultaneous mass stay and (or) movement in public places, resulting in a violation of public order, sanitary rules, the functioning and preservation of life support objects, causing harm to green plantations, or created The interference of the movement of pedestrians or transport, the access of citizens to residential premises or objects of transport or social infrastructure ... It entails the imposition of an administrative fine ... Further numbers are set out, but we will talk about them below, and now we will re -read the text.

Re -read, huh?

No more. There is a danger that an unprepared person who has read this essay three times in a row will join the last secrets of being and will become a burden to others. It is also noted that those who once got acquainted with this amendment find a tendency to aggression. They reproach the lower house in their blogs with terrible words, the United Russia party and all its leaders - formal and informal. For unable to comprehend the meaning that the legislator invested in the lines cited above.

Meanwhile, they are not devoid of meaning, which manifests itself in a paradoxically. Only when familiarizing yourself with the text, special attention should be paid to fines - from 10,000 rubles to a million (before they were even larger, and they, in my opinion, were reduced). In addition, the bill should be studied along with other texts that seem to have nothing to do with it.

Let's say news ribbons telling about the fall of the ruble and energy prices. The report of the Development Center of the Higher School of Economics, from which it follows that Russia today is worse prepared for a crisis than in 2008. A separate line is the optimistic comments of the Deputy Prime Minister Dvorkovich, who reports that "we are ready for any development of events." This statement, especially against the background of giant investments in the military -industrial complex and the stable outflow of investors, can instill real anxiety.

However, the alarm is scattered, as soon as we recall again about the bill. The extremely tempting scheme emerges. The society, illegally being and (or) moving in public places, voluntarily subject itself to fines. Power, turning hands and pockets to the organizers and ordinary participants of unauthorized processions, fills them with the money of the pre -crisis treasury.

So it arises, I am not afraid of this word, harmony in the relations of the disagreed people and the studied authorities. The mutual assistance ticket office is formed, but already at the state level. And even if we assume that half of the fines will be stolen according to tradition, the other half will undoubtedly go to good deeds. On the payment of pensions, support for education, healthcare, internal investments, development of the military -industrial complex, Moscow apartments for riot police, etc. And if sociologists, predicting the growth of the protest movement, are right, then you can forget about the crisis.

I’ll say more. If the bill is expected to be adopted and signed by the president until June 12, then changes will occur in the divided our society that only the enemy will not call high -quality. From now on, every citizen entering Bolotnaya, Sakharov or Triumphal will be considered as a patriot of Russia, who does not feel sorry for personal funds to maintain the state. On the contrary, those who prefer to sit out at home will become famous for people greedy and indifferent to the fate of the Fatherland. And those who wish to go to the bow and will even demand money from the state for this will deserve the brand of traitors.

Everything is reasonable, do you now agree with me? It is only necessary not to regret intellectual efforts for his existing, comprehension - and any, even the most covering state secret will be revealed to an inquisitive mind of an independent observer. And in this rational world, you will agree where to live more comfortable than in the usual, inhabited by fools, freaks and provocateurs, as is commonly called Russian politicians and lawmakers. We refuse these labels and take a step towards power.
