Ok , ok I agree with you , life is 1000 billions better in Russia , they have 100 times the average wage of the poor german worker
Originally we were comparing the salaries of the Ukrainian citizens with their Russian counterparts. You diverted from the topic and started the Russia vs Germany comparison. But what is the point? Germany is not going to grant Ukrainians citizenship or visas for the next 50 years or so.
No he was not comparing that.
Check his post.
And don't accuse me of diverting the post when this shill comes in with the non-sense.
I am new in this thread but I found myself rooting for the rebels. I just read that Russia is now the richest country in Europe by GDP-PPP (purchasing power parity, which is the most accurate measurement of wealth). THe GDP-PPP of Russia for 2013 is $3.4 trillion vs. Germany's $3.3 trillion, then Russia is the biggest luxury-market in Europe, then here come these unlucky Russians who because who found themselves trapped with the poor Ukrainians (GDP of Ukraine is $175 billion which is Africa level). Just imagine being separated by your family which is now flying high & only a border separate them from your misery (salary in Russia is 4-10x that of Ukraine)!!
His first phrase was about Germany and Russia and how Russia is living a luxury life compared to Europe.
Are you sure about your 50 years?
I really find your style tedious, I wonder how your power of comprehension works. I did not mean that Russia is living a luxury life compared to Europe, I wrote "the biggest luxury-market in Europe", meaning the luxury houses get their bigger sales in Russia compared to the rest of Europe. Meaning the Russians buy more luxury goods than anyone in Europe. Why is there lower sales in Europe? Well, because they love to quote big GDP's but the people really don't have purchasing power. There is 50% youth unemployment in the EU, the economies are anemic, people & governments are drowning in debts.
There goes the meaning of GDP-PPP, people have purchasing power & there lies the difference. FYI, the biggest luxury market in the world is CHina. LOw GDP per capita you say? That only means that that measurement , GDP per capita, doesn't say the true picture as regards to the purchasing power of the citizens.
