The average monthly cost of living for a family of 4 in Russia is 130k rubles(~1600 usd) according to a quick google search and the average cost of living for a family of 4 in America is $8637, in some states the average is nearly double that.

Obviously America is the greatest country in the world tho and Russia isn't even top 20, but still flatly comparing wages is disingenuous at best. There are countries that your family could live like millionaires for $8k usd/month, with every amenity you could ask for. But yer still in that country, rather than the most powerful, most secure, freest and wealthiest nation in world history. Location, location, location.


Russia sells their stuff for less because they have to, which is mostly knock off China made copies of western name brands.

The west is better. Isn't that why you live there? Isn't that why people try to immigrate to western countries? Ain't no one going through hell to get to some shithole like russia


The mass migration is motivated mostly first by the welfare systems, that somehow is open to migrants from day 1 with more benefits than for natives obviously cause of extreme corruption in the West,(same mad policy that the biden/Kamala adminisration had), and secondly by the outspoken word of the muslim brotherhood, take over of Europe and spreading of their incompatible sharia religion.. (probably out for revenge too in the long run with large offensive jihads planned due to the us/"the wests" brutal middle east wars). yeah there are a few more reasons but those are the 2 major & very problematic ones.

Even if we cut off 100% of means-tested and conditional benefits to migrants, illegal aliens would still be motivated by universal/population benefits like public safety, infrastructure, etc. If you lived in a ruined shithole overrun with gangs and corrupt officials, you'd rather live in a US city with well, relatively fewer gangs and relatively less corrupt officials and less blight. Granted much of that exists right now because we import it, because we've created that incentive and include means-tested and conditional benefits in the handouts.

A country can only exist with borders and borders can only exist if you enforce them.

It does answer the question. You are just blind. Only thing our debt does is raise interest rates. Yawn. Only people from 3rd world commie countries would choose Russia over their home.

Most of the stuff here is Chinese too, we just pay more fer it because we can. I may be crazy but buying shoes for $200 that are made by children doesn't exactly seem like a badge of honor to me.

LOL

Navalny was supported and funded by the West because he opposed Putin. He wasn't even popular enough in Russia to be a serious candidate.

After Navalny died Joe Biden issued a whole bunch of sanctions against Russia now let's talk again about interfering in another country's elections Said

Said again completely clueless what a clown show
