The Sverdlovsk region, like the whole country, almost unanimously voted for stability. It's time to try to understand in more detail what kind of life our citizens decided to stabilize for themselves.
In a number of small settlements in the region this winter, residents are extracting water from ice. They take an ax and a bucket and go to the river to chop the water. Those who are less fortunate, and there is no river nearby, melt the snow. The same snow that falls in the Urals, after being mixed with multi-colored smoke. But of course, these are not the Alps, but the supporting edge of the state. And this snow is boiled and drunk. How can this be? Yes, easily!
It turns out that in many villages there is NO central water supply. In some places it fell into disrepair, and in others it never existed. Residents carry water in buckets from pumps. And this winter there was little snow in the Urals, but there was a lot of frost, as always, and the pumps were frozen. It would seem that the problem can be solved by placing pavilions over the speakers and protecting them from frost. It didn't work out. It was possible to organize the supply of drinking water, but somehow it didn’t work out. Maybe the regional authorities don’t know, maybe the residents are hiding the problem and don’t want to disturb the governor? But, no. Regional Minister of Housing and Communal Services Smirnov is fully aware of the situation and competently explains that it is not economically feasible to supply water to houses. The costs are high and the water supply is poor. And the fact that the speakers freeze is nature’s fault. You understand, we don’t live in Miami. Therefore, the situation with drinking water in our region will continue to remain stable.
