>More than 180,000 Russians have signed a petition calling for the resignation of Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev after his remarks about teachers' pay sparked outrage earlier this week.
>The petition, posted on the website Change.org, had gathered 180,000 signatures by midday on August 5 and appeared to be accumulating supporters rapidly.
>The petition came after Medvedev on August 2 advised a low-paid teacher from the impoverished Daghestan region to go into business if he wants to make money, in comments that were widely seen as out-of-touch and uncaring.
>"The cabinet should be led by a person who is competent, educated, and cares about the country," wrote the petition's author, Aleksandr Li. "We are seeing the opposite right now."
180,000 edgy teenagers and old butthurt communists

so Yes-man Medvedev is going be scapegoated for the failing Russian economy. Sad!
Carson Smith

If it's anything like the US then the job market for teaching is already flooded which results in lower wages
Women love going into teaching and there's almost no end in the supply of potential candidates.
I remember one time my "economics" teacher was whining that teachers are paid less than NBA players because "teaching is more important than basketball"
It was as if she had no idea that there's far more demand for the incredibly rare 7 foot tall athletic blacks than there is for the millions of women willing to do what is essentially glorified babysitting.
The real problem is finding high quality teachers and those usually go to higher paying private schools.

At least their economy isn't based on begging, theft and fraud, gyppo.
Samuel Parker
He literally said nothing wrong
What can he do by himself lol
As long as poo tin and co continue to spend on the military that can barely even keep sandniggers bombed, teachers etc have no future.
Especially in the sand region of darkiestan.

>At least their economy isn't based on begging, theft and fraud, gyppo What? You know we're talking about Russia and Russians are basically violent thieves, criminals and alcoholics?

Still not comparable to gypsies, whose entire culture is based around organised property crime against gadje (outsiders).

So a western website gets 180k signatures and this is news to you? This is more of a joke than the 'London wants to leave the UK!' petition

But Romanians =/= Gypsies, you know that? Cygan =/= Rumun
