Below is the decoding of fragments of the conversation.
Part One. Life on credit
Alexey Mazur: “About the debt pit at the St. Petersburg Economic Forum, the Minister of Economic Development Oreshkin and the head of the Central Bank Nabiullina argued. Oreshkin said that the growth of consumer lending to the population exceeds the growth of income, and the income itself exceeds. This can create an economic bubble. Lending over the year has grown by 30%, and this does not correspond to the growth of income that actually fall. It is clear that if such a trend is preserved, then we will have mass personal bankruptcies of citizens and mass bankruptcies of banks, which joyfully issues these loans. And Oreshkin, who is responsible for the economy, reproaches Elvira Nabiullina, who is responsible for the banks, that these loans give out banks. And the logic of answers Nabiullina is opposite: you have a bad economy, the people are starving, so they take loans.
On the one hand, you look - both are right. Oreshkin: Banks give out loans to anyone, and this will lead to a recession. Nabiullina: And your economy is not growing, so the people take something to eat. And both are trying to shove the responsibility of the irreversible collapse to the other side.
If we talk about the new card of “Crossroads” and “BKS-Bank” with the possibility of buying products on credit, then this practice has been in the villages for many years. Where people know each other, there are notebooks in rural stores, and people have long been buying on credit to the nearest salaries.
By the way, I thought that here the government is concerned about the fall of ratings, but there is a very simple way to raise them - it is to introduce food coupons. People simply, on the fact of their existence, will be distributed to some grain, buckwheat. We need a grocery set so that a person can cook himself every day and not die of hunger-some stew-porridge or something else like that.
It will not cost anything to the state if they put apples and any food in general. And this population still has no money. That is, these grocery coupons are needed so that everything, as in Soviet times, must be ensured that there is a turn of two or three hours to get this set. Naturally, any person who has money will not go in this line. And therefore, there will be a clear division of people into those who have money and who will spend it in stores, and on those who have no money left. They just give them even in such a humiliating way, and they will even be grateful and go to vote - as it should. ”
Part two. Who controls us
Evgeny Mezdrikov: “This week, the temporarily acting governor of the Astrakhan region Sergey Morozov, a native of the FSO, resigned. Moreover, this already happened, in fact, during the election campaign - in September he should have had elections. Perhaps he simply realized that he would no longer stand it all. Remember, there was a precedent in the Kaliningrad region, when the other former guard Putin lasted almost a month in the governor’s chair and left for family reasons. Nevertheless, after the resignation of Morozov, now the press secretary of the President Dmitry Peskov said that the Kremlin was satisfied with the work of governors from the FSO. ”
Alexey Mazur: “Well, what should they be dissatisfied with them? A good person, we have known him for a long time, we were fishing together. Reliable, never failed. Of course, the Kremlin is satisfied. Another thing is what does this have to do with the regional management.
<...>
Initially, in the governors we had such strong business executives, the nomenclature - in general, the party holder, which remained from Soviet times. By the way, it is still represented in one form or another. The environment was very tenacious - it is self -processed: we see how people who did not even find Soviet times, were flown into this environment and completely adopted its habits.
We did not have another type very long - even when the governors were elected and not appointed. These are stands, leaders, real politicians. But demagogues and populists quickly flew out, because being a tribune and manager is still different things. And the independent leaders of the regions - such as Luzhkov, Shaimiev, Rakhimov, this is all the cohort - they were cleaned, well, because he is not. Nefig to be independent when we have one center of power.
Then there was a fashion to appoint generals and admirals. It seems that in Kaliningrad the first such governor appeared. But they also quickly disappointed in them, because to command the fleet or regiment and the region are also different competencies.
There were also oligarchs and representatives of corporations. Abramovich was sent to Kamchatka, Deripaska was also stuck somewhere. Then the top managers of the companies are the same Khloponin and Kuznetsov in the Krasnoyarsk Territory.
Well, the last such fashion is technocrats, although it would be more correct to call them bureaucrats. Because a technocrat is a person who did something in the technical industry, understands something in it. But these people - they are even the same. They look the same, they have the same glasses, jackets. Some are even similar to the face. What do they understand? They understand how the bureaucratic machine that is created upstairs works. According to what rules, what are there KPI, what pieces of paper to wear from one office to another, how to fill out the runner on the document. This is what they understand well.
But. Clause one - is this system good? This is a very controversial question. Clause second. Being a governor in the region, you need to understand how the region is arranged, what he needs, what people want, how they can be unhappy, what elites are, how to talk to them, who needs to be agreed with, and who needs to be destroyed - “burning with a bellitar iron”.
That is, people from a poorly or well-functioning bureaucratic machine, in which everything is clear, plunge into a real political life, where you need to make decisions every day, stepping on someone’s interests or, conversely, promoting someone else. I think they fall into a massive stupor there and just stop doing anything. ”
Part is the third. What threatens us
Evgeny Mezdrikov: “This week the next story spun around our personal data and the access of the special services to them. In Yandex, the largest Russian IT company, the FSB demanded the keys of encryption of user correspondence. But this could give access to personal passwords, and Yandex refused. And it is clear that if I agreed, then, in addition to any moral and ethical issues, I would simply lose the competition of Google, which is not in the jurisdiction of Russia and will not give out encryption keys.
Quite unexpectedly, after this, Yandex supported the Deputy Prime Minister Akimov and said that “we will not give offense” the leader of the industry and generally do everything so that he was fine. This, of course, is shock. "
Alexey Mazur: “I’m wondering, they pulled matches in the government there, who would make this statement, who will be the bold that will enter into a discussion with the FSB? In fact, I think that they all occurred to them, that even if Yandex wants to cooperate with the FSB, it is better to pretend that he did not do this.
And I also want to note that the story with Tinder has passed in parallel, this is a dating service. I just imagined the richest base! As soon as the FSB receives it. The man there somewhere wrote to some girls, being married ... This is a very good reason to talk to him about his political or economic behavior. “You know, we directly read out your correspondence. We think that your relatives and friends will also read all this with interest.” The main thing is that it’s too late to rub. Now these Tinder users will rush massively rub everything out of accounts - and late, the law of Yarovo requires this data to store for several months. ”
Part is fourth. Ivan Golunov
Alexey Mazur: “Unfortunately, I personally did not know Ivan before, but read the testimonies of people who are well known to him. And they write that it is impossible to imagine him as a drug addict, because he did not even use alcohol for a long time, and then no more than a glass of red wine per week, relatively speaking. He was very passionate about his work, investigations, and this, of course, is incompatible with the use of some substances.
And then, if a person is doing something ... We all watched Breaking Bad about the everyday life of drug lords. It is difficult to imagine that the drugword cooks drugs in the evening, during the day it goes to investigate some anti-corruption case, and at night it again changes into a drug dealer. You either do it or others. Imagine. Such an anti-corruption journalist comes and says: “But you participated in such a tender, tell us about it ... By the way, do you need Mephedron?” You look at all this, of course, illogical, unrealistic and will attract a lot of attention.
Honestly, I do not really understand the people who are doing this. They subscribed to business, equivalent to Magnitsky’s case approximately. About everyone who is now involved in the “exposure of the drug dealer” in the person of a journalist-investigator, it will be written-about his methods, how he led to whom, what kind of house-apartment, visas, trips, cars, and so on.
If this case is ordered, then they had to ask for so much to provide not only themselves - they wrote themselves off - and all their relatives, children, familiar for many years to come. But, I think that they are not very smart people, of course, they were cheap. ”
