What happened will be ...

ECKL 1: 9 9 what was, then it will be; And what was done would be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.

In the days of the USSR, they constantly repeated that the West was rotting, on TV they showed the lines of the unemployed at the bowl and we could not wait for the West to finally rot.

At this time, in the USSR, people occupied the queues to shops from two in the morning to cheat the coupons for sugar and other products and we were told that everything is fine in the USSR, we just need to wait out temporary difficulties. Now, on TV, they say the same thing, everything is bad in the West, but we are doing well, they have a crisis, and in Russia everything is fine. The West began to rot again: food prices, clothes, gasoline, etc. All lower and lower, salaries are higher and higher, but in Russia everything is better and better: the ruble has depreciated, prices have risen several times, gasoline is getting more expensive and will grow in price, meager salaries (you can live a week), more and more people are left without work. People want to live in a decaying West, and not in prosperous Russia, who has the opportunity, leave, the rest are forced to listen to lies about how everything is bad for them.
