One kind man drew my attention to the forecast of population growth in the federal republics of the USSR, made by Goskomstat of the USSR before dissolution of the Soviet Union and published in the edition "Collection of Statistical Materials. 1990 / Goskomstat of the USSR. — M: Finance and Statistics, 1991". On pages 65-66 of this edition one can find actual data about population of the republics for the end of 1990 and their expected number in 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015.

The first Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Igor Shuvalov declared that there would be no serious innovative development in Russia until prices for oil and gas fall. According to Shuvalov, new opportunities for development of non-oil sector of economy will open in case of falling of prices for oil and decrease in income from export of hydrocarbons.

What should be done? First of all to form solidary position on anti-recessionary measures of our group of non-oil industrialists. We realize perfectly well: the Kremlin will wave our requirements away and will continue to exhaust economy of the Russian Federation to the last. Let’s stay pragmatic: either the power will be replaced as a result of crisis or it would have to look feverishly for a team for correction of the situation. As soon as the course which IMF foreordained to us in the 1990s (to leave only raw materials production, production of food and "screwdriver" assembly for local consumption for the Russians) and remained invariable at Yeltsin and Putin now exhausted its opportunities.

On Tuesday the president of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin arrived to Tobolsk where he took part in a start of work of factory on production of polypropylene and held meeting on questions of development of petrochemical industry.

Switch to winter daylight time during carrying out of the Olympic Games in Sochi is already impossible. It was declared by the Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Kozak. According to him, decision on a question of switching needed to be made till February, 1, before contracts for translation were signed between organizers of the Games and different companies.

Mark Zuckerberg submitted new project under the name Internet.org which aim is connection of five billions people who now don't have access to the Network to the Internet. Story about the project is published on Zuckerberg's page on Facebook website.

"Our mission within nine years was merger of the world. Now we united over billion people, but to unite other five billions it’s necessary to solve more serious problem: vast majority of people has no access to Internet. I concentrated on it because I consider that it is one of the most serious problems of our generation", - the founder of Facebook wrote.

Freezing of tariffs of natural monopolies is a desperate step. Tariffs for transportation, energy and heat smother everything acting as the main reason of inflation. The present mode causes crisis even here. "Russian Railways" declared that it is necessary to dismiss 60 thousand workers and to scale the most necessary investment programs down because of freezing of tariffs. It means surge in unemployment and problem with transport in the near future.

Fog covering true reasons of present splash of anti-migrant hysteria gets seemingly dissipated. It becomes clear that all this circus with camps for migrants and rigid anti-migrant statements of all main applicants for posts of regional chiefs serves as good smoke screen urged to cover fantastic preferences which are given to large capital participating in preparation for FIFA World Cup 2018 in the sphere of hiring and exploitation of foreign labor.

Why Marx and almost all classics of Marxism-Leninism demanded cancellation of money and commodity-money (market) relations? Because money which existed at the time of Marx became capital, that is instrument of exploitation. The main thing is that that money was equal to gold and limited economy development. It was possible to issue that ammount of money, additional goods and get surplus value which correspond to the ammount of gold.

Unique anniversary could be celebrated in August, 2013: 5 years ago Higher School of Economics by special resolution signed by Prime Minister of that time Vladimir Putin received status of public institution at the government of Russia. To understand all malignancy of this event for our country is necessary to remind briefly at least of the history of creation and activity of this establishment. Higher School of Economics was created in 1992 at the initiative of Eugene Yasin at the expense of special grant of World Bank. It was created with the only purpose of destruction of the Russian state from within. By carrying out of various reforms. First of all, in education, sciences, economy. The American advisers from World Bank worked on its base all 90s years (till today).

The number of people with income below living wage in the 1st quarter of 2013 ceased to get reduced and increased in comparison with similar period of last year by half a million people (from 19,1 to 19,6 million people, or from 13,5 to 13,8% of the population of Russia). "It’s not poverty, it’s beggary", - known Russian economist specified, having emphasized that considerable part of the Russian not just poor, but starveling beggars works full time getting insignificant wages.

Minister of Finance A.Siluanov declared that a hole in one trillion rubles threatens to be formed in the budget of 2013 and that it is necessary to unpack reserve funds to fill it. Thus our forecasts continue to come true: Putin overloaded economy with senseless mega-expenses and tired it out into local crisis. To rescue situation is necessary to get rid of ballast first of all.

Businessmen will be fined for enticement of workers and partners, the head of the department on control of advertizing and unfair competition of Federal Antimonopoly Service of Russia Nikolay Kartashov reported in interview to the governmental "The Russian Newspaper". Now FAS works over amendments in the law on competition where it wants to stipulate these innovations.

On May, 21 we can celebrate one year of govern of the ex-president D. Medvedev the Russian government and today only the lazy doesn't abuse both of them. Of course, they deserve it. The prime minister has time till fall at the best. Then - inevitable resignation. Or even earlier. Well, if we are pleased to hear that the Minister of Defence of such nuclear power as Russia are pulled out from a bed of his mistress to whom he ran from his second already wife earlier in the morning by OMON? Thus he didn’t have with him either nuclear briefcase, or bodyguards. In her flat they found rolls of money and heaps of gold brilliants.

Joining the WTO on enslaving terms provides high profitability of import and suppression of actually Russian production. If you associate yourselves with importers or with service of their commercial interests, everything wil be ok with you. Besides agriculture the WTO will cause the greatest harm to the consumer goods manufacturing and food industry (in particular to the dairy and cheese making branch), to fishery, mechanical engineering (in particular, to production of trucks and agricultural mechanical engineering). At the same time the main loss is caused not by these or those tariff concessions which part can be partially compensated for some time by direct grants from the budget, but by the rules of conducting of trade disputes (as well as about other rules of the WTO) which, as pushing Russia in the WTO Gref fairly noted, the Russian officials often don’t know.

From the point of view of stability the best way – in the Chinese yuan, though the savings have to be liquid: You should have opportunity to use them quickly enough. It forces the European part of the country to choose between dollar and euro; within a year it is better to store money equally both in euro and in dollar - certainly, it’s necessary to watch situation sharp-sightedly because probability of unpleasant surprises increases threateningly.

It is obvious that the power doesn't cope with "facade" at all. Central TV dropped a level from propaganda skating rink which rolls up all alive in asphalt to the annoying tipsy little man in the subway tramping himself. If earlier we have learned that opposition has no leader, now we know that the other side also doesn’t have it even in the form of "hologram". The main resource of stability - "wool" as it is called by observers in other articles - by and large obviously disappeared. They fail to represent "new course". In my opinion, here you are the main result of the year.

Russia possesses 12,6% of the world’s stock of lands (8,8% – arable lands), hardworking people able to work on the land, effective technologies allowing to receive rich crops and climatic conditions necessary for intensive development of agriculture. Huge capacity of the national and foreign markets of agricultural products (large markets of Europe and the USA, intensively growing of China, India, Africa) allows our country to make breakthrough in development, to diversify economy in natural way, to strengthen geopolitical influence in the world and to render essential help to those who enters into billion of starving people of our planet.

As soon as we start talking about demographic crisis, they start talking about birth rate. While if to speak about mortality rate, at Brezhnev it equaled 7,8 per milles across the USSR, while in 2007 in Perm – 24,7. Official data – 15. In 2005 official data – also 15, also without change in comparison with Yeltsin's period. But proceeding from information received in Perm REGISTRY OFFICE, it is possible to count up: mortality was also about 25, no changes in comparison with 2000. Official figure of the REGISTRY OFFICE – 15, it’s official quantity of holes. While it’s necessary to add to the official figure 1500 coffins taken out from the city, mass graves for bums at the ends of cemeteries, unrecorded two cemeteries burned in crematorium and so forth.

The key reason of inflation in Russia – universal and practically guaranteed unpunished arbitrariness of monopolies. Pozner is right: as soon as it’s possible to judge, there’s no justice in our country and it has disappeared long ago - and it concerns not only political activists, but also consumer’s rights. Underestimated forecast of inflation for the current year was caused by transfer of increase of tariffs for natural monopolies (including housing and communal services) from January, 1 to July, 1. The reason of it is quite clear: ensuring more comfortable election and inauguration of V.V.Putin.
