Russsian teachers paid with vodka

Reports from Russia say thousands of teachers in western Siberia are being paid with bottles of vodka.

According to the reports, the teachers in the Altai republic have received no pay for six months.

As the republic has no money, it has started instead giving each teacher fifteen bottles of vodka.

( Would Finns, Norwegians or Swedes take this long to recover from Communism? )

1. Notice how it says ALTAI REPUBLIC?! Get your eyes checked.

2. How could we possibly know how long it would take Finns(and you have problems with Mongoloid genes?), Norwegians, or Swedes to "recover" from Communism when they never lived under it?

3. There are STILL economic problems in East Germany attributed to the recovery from Communism.

4. Russia's troubles after the fall of Communism was a matter of falling for the same Capitalist bullshit propaganda that had already enslaved the West decades before. At least now they REALIZE that was a problem.

5. You, like on so many issues, are completely ignorant of the economic advances that were made in Russia during the late 90's. And as the price of oil keeps rising, the more money flows to Russia.

Oh shit I didn't even notice that!!! If my memory is correct, the exact year of the economic collapse(thank you "privatization" con-men) was 1991, which would make that only seven years later. I think we can excuse any nation going through such massive changes, being stabbed in the back by self-proclaimed new friends, to take at least SEVEN years to recover.

Japan was practically in the medival era in 1854 but look where it got after 80 years, and look where it is now after being burned back to the stone age.

Damn, this thread went down in flames QUICK!!!

It's history. I just knew it.

Recover? We're suffering from it right now...

Good reason to redouble your efforts against it. When the Communists gained power in Russia, they murdered everyone of ability to think independently.

Everybody take note how he totally ignored it when the date of the article and the fact that it was referring to conditions in the Altai Republic was pointed out.
