Russia is becoming poorer and poorer and its demography is in jeopardy
So long Russia
Oh no! who will save the Turkic race now?
yes yes but are they european?
nice sanctions
It is okay, the 1% are getting richer.
The curse of Karl XII
I guess they will have to import immigrants now.
thanks for your concern
but is that really a problem?
it's the age of overpopulation, it seems the only real risk faces those countries that won't be able to feed and water their growing populations, and those that won't be able to control migration.
Countries like Japan or Russia won't suffer from much of demographic risks. Eastern EU member countries however both have much bigger demographic problems and lack independece and resources to address the aftermath. You euros should really worry about those.
Russia and Japan are not Germany. Japan's dependency ratio is too high and Russians need more people to fuel their catastrophe-laden country.
Good. There are way too many people in here.
Yes Russia and Japan are not Germany. Japan controls immigrations heavily and Russia does a lot of filtering and integrating, mostly accepting migrants from former USSR.
Hopefully we won't have to deal with too much trouble with second generation citizens that grew up in an arab ghetto and right-wing backlash ruining our institutions and chances for the future.
A hundread million people sitting on a vast amount of fresh water and other natural resources should be enough in the era of automatisation, and as long Russian military keeps nuclear deterrent updated and effective.
>gommunism doesnt work. let us disband the soviet union. capitalism is the future
OH NO NO NO OH DEAR LORD
Does Germany have tigers ?
People actually voted against it.
Western Europe is going to far more fucked than Russia when it comes to demography.
>oy vey capitalism is voluntary goyim hehe
What?
The joke is that it isn't voluntary and people did not want it, like you said
Truth to be told, you could use a boost in fertility rates of ethnic Russians. But even without that, you should be fine. Muslims in Russia are far more acceptable to Russian culture and idea of Russia than Muslims in France, Germany, UK or Sweden are.
The best thing would be if Russians had 3-4 kids per couple, like Ilya Glazunov said.
>The best thing would be if Russians had 3-4 kids per couple
No, thanks.
We have 140 million of worthless people, it's too many, we don't need any more birthrates.
>Muslims in Russia are far more acceptable to Russian culture and idea of Russia than Muslims in France, Germany, UK or Sweden are.
What? Sorry, you are wrong.
Muslims here are part of "multinationality" of Russian Federation (key word here is Federation) and they have nothing to do with Russian culture.
>Countries like Japan or Russia won't suffer from much of demographic risks.
Did you just compared Japan to a fucking Russia?
This hellhole is not only poor and corrupt but also imports millions of muslims like EU.
Only retarded brainwashed russians wanted USSR, most people from other republics wanted out.
Giving children in putinist russia is an act of sadism, lol
>imports
aren't the muslims in Russia mainly Chechens?
No they make up like 10% of russias muslims very small people

Can anyone here explain to me without memes or buzzwords why wealth inequality is inherently bad? Seems to me like having a wealthy overclass is better than not having one.
Countries with inequality means they have bad distribution of wealth and that means their economies don't work well.
