Happy birthday, Vladimir Vladimirovich!

Tomorrow Vladimir Putin marks 60 years old, 12 of which he runs our country.

I want to thank Vladimir Vladimirovich for stability. Thank you for the fact that we should no longer think about the future, but only dream of it, live only the present, because our past is the fear and horror that we are afraid of, but which we are already forgetting, getting used to what is. Thank you for the fact that each of us thinks only of ourselves and our loved ones, forgetting that there are still people in neighboring apartments, houses and even regions, not to mention countries. Thank you for giving us the right to fight for parking spaces, cover each other with obscenities for the divergence of opinions and hate for various reasons. Thank you for teaching people to be afraid of change and live without any idea. Thank you for showing that moral freaks are quite happy with moral freaks, and those who really think about the future, you take under your wing and give space for maneuver in exchange for loyalty, and those who are not loyal, you put on a par with terrorists.

Thanks for the fact that now there are not four generations of relatives in apartments, but three each, and now we can take a mortgage for 30-40 years in houses without sound insulation and decoration. Thanks for the paid education and medicine; For loans to gather the child to school. For the fact that half of the wages goes to people to pay for constantly growing housing and communal services tariffs, the growth of which you promise to restrain for 12 years, although the causes of fraud in this area are known to everyone, and pensioners buy the cheapest products, and then watch Channel One, drinking the third time made a bag of May tea, and admiring how beautiful their beliefs will live. Thanks for the fact that officials and police are more important for you are more important than doctors, teachers and military. Thank you for knowing how much money and who needs to give a paw to solve any problems, even if we have never given a bribe or we are not going to.

Thanks for the shopping centers and offices that were once plants. Thanks for the billionth investments in AvtoVAZ, which is not able to compete even with the cheapest foreign cars, for falling satellites. Thanks for the APEC summit in Vladivostok.

Thank you for Sochi, Gelendzhik, where rest is more expensive than in the notorious Egypt and Turkey, and the level of service and improvement is simply incomparable. Thanks for the planned resorts in the North Caucasus, where people are killed every day.

Thank you for now we can admire the ingenious works of Misha Samara and Eduard Bagirov, listen to the beautiful songs of Stas Mikhailov and Elena Vaengi, and dream of the same as Pussy Riot, conduct our action in Micheti, and we would all enjoy the new reality, hiding the existing problems that need to be solved and not hiding.

Thanks for the fact that you are life. Because if not you, then death and devastation. If not you, then the devil understand what.

Therefore, I wish you that oil never end in this country. But when it ends, neither you nor your environment will no longer be alive, and the inhabitants of the era of your stability will have to get a bunch of shit, like you, in the understanding of a certain part of society, moiled shit after the collapse of the Soviet Union and even after the Yeltsin era. But instead, you just decided to sell everything. So it’s easier, right?
