Election 2018 for Putin VV
I, a citizen of the Russian Federation, am going to vote for Putin BB as he is my future.
I fully agree with His program for the destruction of the people of Russia:
1. I am for Putin's food program chemistry plus GMOs instead of natural products according to GOST
For me, the more expensive and poor quality the products are, the better.
2. I am for eternal slavery and for the humiliation of me and my children before the oligarchs. I am ready to give my last money to thieves, oligarchs, as I don’t want to change anything and let them eat at my expense and buy pitchforks and yachts at the resorts. I am in favor of the huge difference between the incomes of the rich and the poor.
3. I am for paid medicine and education, for expensive medicines, for examination and treatment at frenzied prices. If my children get sick, I'd rather ask the people for money than the state will give it to me.
4. I am in favor of any new tax on everything that is possible. I am for raising prices for anything, including food, utilities and fuel.
5. I am for the fact that the natural resources of Russia do not belong to me or the people, but to a handful of oligarchs and exported abroad.
6. I am for the cities of Russia to be filled with millions of migrants, and the Russian people to suffer from unemployment and for the settlement of the Far East by the Chinese, and let the Kurils be given to the Japanese.
7. I am for raising the retirement age and am ready to accept a pitiful handout in the form of an indexation of 300 rubles to me. I believe that this is a lot.
8. I am for the collapse of industry and agriculture. Yes, everything burns with a blue flame. We will buy everything we need abroad. I am for the destruction of small businesses at the initial stage with huge taxes.
Our candidate has an excellent program. Putin is my choice.
If this agitation could be shown through television - it is amazingly thought up, this is not the first time I read it. It remains to add: Putin lived, Putin is alive, Putin WILL live! I have already rewritten the constitution for myself once and will rewrite it more than once.
Read the text of the Marseillaise. The text was written more than 2 centuries ago, but how relevant it is today in relation to our life.
Mr Putin, goodbye, but better bye !!!
For Grudinin, only for the fact that Putin pretends to be "people's", and the "cart" with the Yeltsin-Chubai-Kudrinsky is still going. As the Berezovskys used to say - "We rode you (in the 90s), and now you drive us."
Putin to the people some time ago: We declare war on corruption!
A couple of years later: Citizens, you are my dear, CORRUPTION has won! "
Do not get fooled by the polls of the FOM and VTsIOM, pseudo-structures for obingling the population, they will pervert so that a rag stuffed animal will be taken to the authorities, and a silent herd will lead.
The thief should be in prison, not on the throne!
I urge everyone to vote for Grudinin!
Vladimir Vladimirovich, it's time for you to have a well-deserved rest - you have reached retirement age, and for the last 17 years you have been overwhelmingly straining as a "galley slave". After all, our long-suffering "galley" may simply not survive your next cadence, and even the 21st century now, all the world's fleets have switched to engines, and you are trying everything by hand ... Grudinin is a decent man, he will provide you with all social benefits and guarantee how You are 99 EBNu, remember? Until the end of your days, you will ride the tram and metro for free ...
Every day you can see how much mud pours out on Grudinin. Fear. I vote only for Grudinin P.N.
I think that of all the candidates, only Grudinin has an adequate strategy for the country's development. I don't believe Putin anymore ...
