Here all argue about the "we have good pensions", "we have small pensions, we appear to live in different countries".This is the fact that in different regions and cities everything is different.Someone is lucky with the governors-mayors, who regulate the internal policy of the region in favor of the people who live there. There are those who spit on the people. I live in a city with less than 100,000 inhabitants. Here the roads are licked, as mushrooms grow houses and shopping centers, schools and kindergartens. Pensions and wages are decent, both teachers and doctors.In the area, agriculture is developed and all the products of the first necessity are our own. And even greenhouses are great for growing vegetables all year round. Because there is a good leader here who knows that they live here. And people are grateful. Some regions are not so lucky. So, it makes sense to argue, bad in Russia or good? Russia is big, it is a Federation with different internal regional laws, and everything is different everywhere. Much depends on people.
