The budget of the North Caucasus is being stolen by bandits and officials
Last week, Rosstat announced interesting details of the latest population census conducted in 2010. The head of the department, Alexander Surinov, said that almost 40% of residents of the North Caucasus Federal District indicated dependence as a source of livelihood. According to Surinov, 38% of the population named dependency, help from other persons, or alimony as one of their sources of income. Another 25%, as it turned out, live on various benefits, including unemployment benefits.
