Hot budget chairs

Why will we have less money tomorrow than yesterday

In Russia, a law has been adopted prohibiting street boards with exchange rates of currencies. Now it will be possible to demonstrate current courses only inside the licensed rooms. Formally, this is done to combat gray exchangers who are disguised as banks and attract the attention of random customers. But most commentators are sure: to hide the current exchange rate of the dollar and euro to the ruble from the streets so that the citizens are not so sad.

The national currency course is the simplest indicator of the state of the economy, the meaning of which over the years of reform has become clear to each of our compatriots. What could be sadder than going through a snowy city and recount your earnings in dollars, evaluating how your work turns into someone’s “geopolitical greatness”? The dollar return to the 2015 indicators, now it is sold for 69 rubles, that’s all the greatness. But there is a solution: just hide the scoreboard.

Citizens receiving a salary will be able to once again not worry due to the fall of their income. Unfortunately, this method of putting a head in financial sand does not work in relation to entrepreneurs. Alfa-Bank summed up the results of the next study of the mood of the owners of the small business, and they demonstrate record pessimism. The sample of four thousand surveyed shows that 85% of entrepreneurs are sure that the economic situation inhibits business development. 65% of respondents argue that the situation in the economy in 2019 will only become worse. Such moods are facilitated by completely objective factors: increasing VAT, a new drop in oil prices and inflation acceleration.

Unlike state corporations, small business does not depend on budget infusions, but on the solvency of people. Real incomes of citizens fall for four years in a row, no matter what Dmitry Medvedev say there. Most of the employers do not plan to increase wages next year, at the same time, the state tries to control the gray zones of the economy, primarily the so -called self -employed. All this means that tomorrow we will have less money than yesterday, and a small business focused on our income will not have a hope for development.

It is important that the pessimism of entrepreneurs regarding the future today is even higher than in 2015. After the devaluation of the ruble, the situation was difficult, but many counted on quick recovery.

Now Small Business realized that the latest economic policy in which the tasks of state importance are solved by impoverishing people - this is seriously and for a long time.

Pessimism in this context becomes a self -exploring forecast: people will not invest in new projects and jobs, the economy will continue to stagnate, the purchasing power of citizens to decline.

The only reasonable strategy of entrepreneurship in the country is to attract budget money. It is useless to develop a business, you just need to have good relations with officials. In the end, our state budget is surplus, and this means that the state, unlike everyone else, has money. Everyone who did not have time to understand this simple truth earlier, in 2019 will take up the search for budget financing. This, of course, kills the competition and quality of services - a business that is focused on the development of funds, is always corrupt, but is rarely arranged “for people”. But what else to do to entrepreneurs if the last cure for financial spell in Russia is the game “Hot Budget chairs”.
