Russia has many problems. It's in a recession, billions of dollars are leaving the country monthly and their economy is flat lining. They also have a major problem with alcohol, they drink far too much of it.
A colleague of mine who worked there for a couple of years said that they had problems with Russian workers drinking alcohol on the job, that's why he refuses to fly with any Russian airline.
To be honest, I don't know any office workers drinking alcohol on the job during the everyday work, perhaps only during the corporate parties. Or do you mean labor workers?
As for the airlines and the drunkards, well it's mostly the people who go to Egypt. And even they don't do it always, just sometimes. People going to Europe don't drink on the board.

I have a friend in London ( know him for many years.)
I was shocked to hear what he was telling me about austerity and corruption scandals that became prominent lately in the UK, the shortage of jobs and foreign immigration/capital taking over the country. He thinks that the country is going down the tube, basically, comparably to what it used to be.
I mean Russia ALWAYS had problems, but to hear this kind of things about G.B. was unexpected.
America has an issue with that young, inexperienced North Korean president, and Dennis Rodman is not an American ambassador, but simply a man who wants, for whatever reason, reach out to North Korea.
As an American, we do not subscibe to the affiliation with North Korea, but South Korea instead.
While it may seem true, that we want everyone to think like us, what is most
true is that we truly want everyone to have a free voice, and never be afraid, and to live unfettered, with creating your original hopes and dreams.
That is what America wishes to see. Freedom of will.

It may sound strange because North Korea is officially a republic but it seems like North Korea has become some kind of Communist Monarchy. The current leader is the son and grandson of the former leaders.
The one thing I can say is that at least it provides some kind of stability whenever the leader dies.
Why are young Russians online so self-hating and socially left?
your opinion? I do not like a hypocrite, like most Russian. I meet a lot of girls from the Internet (from the US) and most admired Russian and vice versa often do not speak about American guys.
