    US never became a real modern country, no welfare = third world.

    But Russia…mother of god. They don’t produce a fucking shit. People still believe the old bell “we are the greatest”. Vodka must be really cheap.

    Us still 17nth in the hdi index anyway, you take away those small rich motherfuckers like Singapore and Switzerland, then is just some Euro countries, Japan and few others.

    Russia is around 70 and digging, even Bulgaria does better. Everybody does better than Russia, even without oil and gas. It’s so it works in countries who have at least a quite decent government instead of a bunch of mafia guys (and US seems to be following soon).
