The results of the week. Our anti -crisis

I lost a bet, because I put it on the fact that Putin would not come to Pikalevo. I was guided by the following considerations: Putin had never succumbed to such blackmail (in his understanding of the overlap of the road route by hungry workers and members of their families - of course, blackmail). Putin did not hire to Deripaska to resolve his problems. Putin will not want to create a precedent, after which thousands of other hungry workers in hundreds of other Russian cities will understand that there is a way to solve their most difficult problems. At least for a while. And, finally, Putin will never agree to roam the dirty factory and delve into the issues of the supply of nephelin concentrate, while his younger tandem partner, imposingly collapsing in the Vipovsky ship’s chair, observe the palace embankment and talks on geopolitical topics with the heads of other states. Because this, of course, is not Putin’s business, rolling up his pants, rake shit for some small thieves and, in his own words, “greedy” characters. He is a national leader to you or who?!But I miscalculated - Putin came to Pikalevo. However, judging by the television picture, all the time he was there, he was in a state of not even irritation, but rather rabies. I think just for the above reasons. Everyone got it. Governor Serdyukov for trying to lure the prime minister in some less problematic city. In addition, Putin clearly made it clear that he suspects the governor of that it was he who initiated the protest actions of citizens in Pikalevo in order to disrupt Putin’s visit there. (Of course, the workers themselves would never have finished blocking the road. In addition, no one dispersed them all day. And why? Very suspicious.)
In full the program, Oleg Deripaska also went. In fairness, we note that there is something to be offended for Deripaska Putin. He, Putin, spent a bunch of billions of dollars on Oleg Vladimirovich, and he could not even save him from such a shameful role, forced him to delve into the squint between the three provincial factories in front of the whole country. The television channels made us witnesses to the marvelous episode, which occurred between Putin and Deripaska during a meeting in a local factory. Everyone noted that the prime minister actually forced the magnate to sign a certain agreement. However, for some reason, no one paid attention to how this episode ended. When Oleg Vladimirovich was already moving away from the table, Putin sharply said: “Return the pen!” And he looked at the owner (possibly already a former) city -forming enterprise. I was waiting for the words from his lips to break away: “What, are things bad at all?” But Putin did not utter them. And on the other hand, to whom it is not Putin to know, how do Deripaska really are?
Of course, our “protective” analysts and publicists have interpreted the story with Putin’s arrival in Pikalevo - the prime minister showed will, came to the problem region and solved the problem. That is, he showed himself an effective anti -crisis manager. And the whole country saw how cool he was, our Vladimir Vladimirovich! Indeed, before Putin arrived, workers were transferred to salaries in two months. (Which, of course, is good.) This was reported by the Governor of the Leningrad Region. Indeed, in Pilevo in the coming days, most likely, the boiler room will be launched, and hot water will appear in the houses. I even suspect that work at all three Pikalevsky enterprises will resume for some time. After all, it was on such a solution that the prime minister insisted.
Now in essence. Apparently, the workers were transferred to workers from the budget of the region. And this means that the problems of some solve at the expense of others. The same teachers, doctors, etc. In addition, all the last days from the lips of federal deputies were the words about the “nationalization” of Pikalevsky enterprises. They even began to discuss the corresponding bill. Putin did not say anything about nationalization in Pilevo. But he acted there just as the owner. By what we saw and heard from Pikalev, it was the impression that the owner that absent for a long time returned home and found his enterprises in complete desolation. And now he pronounces the negligent manager. And, of course, it requires the shortest possible time to restore the work of factories.
This is the most meaningless and dangerous in the anti -crisis management of the Russian prime minister. Probably, Russia still has enough resources to support some of the already actually bankrupt enterprises for some time and thereby solve the social problems of the population. But it is obvious that in the end, such an economic policy leads to inevitable collapse. By God, it would be better if Putin swam with Medvedev along the Neva on the ship - and there would be less harm, and my money would be more intact. However, the Pikalevites, apparently, think differently. And for some time (I'm afraid, very short) they will still think so.
