Are you feeling the crisis?

We see the word "crisis" constantly thrown around in text and news articles, but I want to know the reality of the situation for the average person living in Russia. I understand almost nothing about the financial markets, and my investments are all handled by stockbrokers with expertise in the area. Yet I go to the gas station each week and see the gas prices continually drop, which is great for me given that I commute a very long distance to work now. Travel is also less costly with the strength of the dollar, whereas many Russian friends no longer can afford to go abroad due to the continual decrease in the ruble. So, are all of these stories on LJ simply written by alarmists and pessimists, or do you feel there's a real crisis now in Russia as a result of sanctions and economics, which dramatically impacts your life? If so, in what way? Do you have hope for improvement in 2016?

2. "I remember 90-s with no power." How long we're going to recall 90-es? That was a period of epoch vicissitude.
3. "everything to produce our own food." Why didn't we produced it when oil price was going through the roof?
4. Why do U lie that everything remains the same? Is Sochy or Crimea holiday similar to that of abroad?

2. I remember Soviet Union as well. And want my country to become powerful again. We probably could not have a leader better than Putin on this way.
3. Read my link about Dutch Dicease above. It has all the answers. Short answer: our currency was too high for our ecomony.
4. "Is Sochy or Crimea holiday similar to that of abroad?" I told in my first comment that now it's haders to travel abroad. You don't read but rush to argue.
Everything else is the same FOR ME.

У меня оплачена моя работа программистом, и больше ничего.
А то я тоже буду говорить, что тебе Госдеп платит.

Да и ты раньше меня госдепом не тыкал... Это точно ты? Ну не мог же кризис так человека поменять, я прям тебя не узнаю. Был такой позитивный и вдруг рамзанувскую жвачку про госдеп начал жевать. Завтра японским шпионом я буду?
Короче, чувак, верни мне прежнего мистера Ки. Этот - отстой, мне нравился прежний. Тот жёг, этот - чадит.

Это же зеркало тебя.
Ты мне "платный тролль", я тебе - "агент Госдепа".
Вот и поговорили.
Я разговариваю с теми, с кем можно разговаривать по существу, или информирую, если тема мне лично интересна.
А сейчас я больше увлечен Тантрой, чем политикой :))
