While I agree to you that everyone who can leave Russia - should do it for now, your arguments about personal economy are wrong. The thing with Russia is enormous inequality, which is not seen in average metrics. Moscow has enormously cheap taxi and delivery services because of abundance of immigration workforce and lack of social security. Imagine US allowing free immigration and work for all immigrants. All low skill professions will be immediately taken by wave of immigrants from LATAM and Asia, which will significantly increase quality of life for US middle and lower-middle class with all the spare cash from cheap householding, transportation and other services. Uber and Doordash will become dirt cheap. Amazon may transform into something even more dystopian. It will also force Americans who are doing those jobs right now to live on welfare, effectively bankrupt welfare system. They are voters, so due to democratic processes this will never happen, but this is not the case in Russia. |
