Medicine in Russia is free for everyone; to do this, you need to get a medical insurance policy and register with any clinic. The ambulance arrives free of charge, even if you call it every day. There are also paid clinics if you have extra money. Pharmacies are 24/7, where you can buy medications without a prescription, even antibiotics. One day, I forgot the recipe at home and they sold it to me, taking my word of honor. They cut out my appendix, I was in the hospital for 2 weeks until the stitches were removed. I was treated, given injections, fed, and when I was discharged I did not pay a single ruble. On the contrary, my employer paid me sick leave in the same amount as my salary. God bless Putin!
При чем здесь Путин? Это наследие Советского Союза.

I don't quite agree with the thesis that Russians are not that sociable. It's just that Americans talk to everyone , and this communication is "superficial." And Russian people have a strong depth of character. They are not interested in empty conversations . If you talk to a person , you talk to them with all your heart .
Yeah I agree with you also russians are barbeque people I don't know where he lives but any places I've been I had barbeque
I absolutely agree! It's just that Americans and I have a different understanding of the term "sociability" - just smile at everyone and chat about nothing superficially - this is not sociability in Russian!)))
Agree! It’s in the culture to not smile or laugh without a reason, and making eye contact doesn’t qualify as reason. Remember how Americans mocked Soviet figure skaters for not smiling from ear yo ear while waiting for their score? Talked about how miserable and oppressed they must be? Well, it just wasn’t a moment that warranted smiling.
Русские жизнь отдают за друга, товарища… за родину!!!!! Последним куском хлеба поделятся, в трудные времена .. в 90е, если какие то купишь дефицитные продукты , сам не ешь а гостям держишь!!!!! Всем зашедшим в дом, даже без приглашения предлагают чай или покушать в месте!!!!!!??

The 90's thriving economy of the US you're talking about was due to the fall of the USSR and the plundering its resources by Americans. Same reason why Dems and Conservatives were friends as you say, they were feasted on the corpse of their competitor at the expense of the poverty and life of the Russian people. Yes, your politicians then had nothing to fight for; they had everything in abundance. As a Russian, I cannot share your optimism for those times.

The main difference between the USA and Russia is that in Russia the main thing is honor, in the USA the main thing is money. It is from these two conceptual things that we need to consider the entire Russian mentality. And looking into the history of Russia, you can find clear confirmation of this unchanged concept over many centuries; this is the formula of the Russian soul and the main Russian code.

Year 2000. Putin's first night in Kremlin. Stalin comes to him in a dream.
- "How do I fix this falling-apart country," asks Putin.
- "Easy", says Stalin. "First, you get rid of all the liberals, then paint the Kremlin blue".
- "Why blue?" Asked Putin.
- "That's my boy!" replied Stalin. "I'm glad you didn't question the first part."
lol
Churchill said: "Whoever was not a liberal in his youth is devoid of a heart, whoever did not become a conservative in adulthood is devoid of a mind."
При этом Путин является либералом и ведет либеральную политику. Просто он адекватный либерал, а не либераха-навальнист-тупая-малолетняя-борцуха-за-свободу.

Кроме квартир, у большинства россиян есть еще дачи. Иногда дачи это вполне большие дома пригодные для жилья круглый год. Традиция россиян жить зимой в квартире, летом на даче
I heard " Brunswick Stew" and my head snapped up. Lol. An aunt served me some last night that was delicious. The Russians might like Southern Bar-B-Que. It is fantastic!
I agree with your assessment about the state of our country. It is NOT the same nation that I grew up with and knew for so long. Its gone and the GD globalist stole it.
I admire what the Russians have achieved. They have actual values, love their families, love their culture and traditions. Very tough, intelligent people. Ive always wanted to visit the Hermitage, St Petersburg, Moscow and the enormous countryside. So glad I stumbled across your channel.
We do BBQ by ourselves, there are special places in some parks with preinstalled grills for public use, but even better is to get out of city on weekend to our summer houses or cabins (called Dacha), its basically a weekend retreat houses outside of city most people have for relaxation and to get away from city and enjoy nature, do BBQ or Shashlik or even have your little own garden as a hobby. People, especially retired and no longer working love spending time there. 🤗

Minor correction. Standard income tax in Russia is 13%. It's possible to shave is down to 6% or even 5% for some self-employed activities. It can be even less than that depending on a region with a "patent".

I like the formula that I heard from an American in Russia. He said that if you come to Russia, you have to become Russian. You have to immerse yourself in Russian culture, otherwise you will not survive. Unlike in the USA, where you have to remain who you identify yourself to be. It's great if you become Russian. This does not mean that you have abandoned your culture, it means that you respect another culture. This tolerance is lacking in the West.

В современной России многие имеют бесплатное жильё, благодаря Советскому Союзу. Жильё, квартиры давали бесплатно! Мои три тётки получили квартиры от государства. У одной была шикарная четырехкомнатная квартира от завода, на котором она работала. Дали,как многодетной матери.Правда, она не смогла потом её сохранить в 90е , разменяла на 2 двухкомнатные в старой хрущёвке. Но сам факт! Мои родители купили кооперативную квартиру в позднем СССР, платили за кооператив копейки без каких-либо процентов! В 90е оформили собственность. У нас божами становятся маргиналы, которых обманули мошенники или совсем спившиеся маргиналы, которые сами всё профукали. В 90е это было повсеместно. Сейчас люди работают, пашут, а если вообще нет вариантов, берут ипотеку! И всё: капиталистическое рабство))

Only cheese in a mousetrap is free. For these apartments, the working people plowed in three shifts, like in Papa Carlo's band group. First of all, apartments were given to married people, or at the birth of a child. They were given to great scientists, cosmonauts, and other "honored artists", taking into account how much the average Russian worker earned at that time, and American, it is safe to say that a person still earned money for his apartment, but because of low salaries, he could not buy it. But the Soviet authorities framed this case as if they were handing over this apartment for free. So don't write all this nonsense.
well, you might be not totally right about bbq, Russians love bbq, it's called ШАШЛЫК and the places with ШАУРМА also sell bbq. The designated bbq stands are usually better. Try them out
One point about Russian conservatism (speaking as a Russian). Traditional values are something that's being taught to you since childhood, but that's not something that's being enforced.
From movies etc. I get the vibe that American conservatives often see it as their civil duty to interfere whenever they see something that goes against their idea of good and bad. For example, I remember a scene in some American show where a policeman saw a car where teenagers were making love, and he interfered to stop them and take them home. That seemed quite wild to me. Like, why are you minding other people's business? No crime is being committed, so why do you take it on yourself to get involved?
Russians in general are quite suspicious of the people who force their ideas on others. For this reason being ideological (regardless of the ideology) is not seen as a virtue. You're expected to be normal and decent. If you're not, people will just avoid you.
Another couple of corrections that need to be made. Yes, certain laws can be ignored if you're a private individual keeping a low profile. For example, nobody cares if you download copyrighted music and movies, and the 6% tax rate for self-employed people like private tutors is that low exactly because self-employed people mostly didn't care to pay taxes at all.
But if you start a business for example, the authorities will pay a much closer attention to you. If you want to open a cafe, be sure to study all the fire, epidemiology and tax regulations, because governmental checks are real and no joke.
There is a tacit understanding among people around here which of the rules are overly complicated and can be ignored and which rules must actually be followed. So if you're new in Russia, don't come with the mindset that «ah, laws just don't apply to real life». In many cases they do, and you can run into trouble if you don't respect them where it counts.
Also don't trust a random Russian person's opinion on it. They would probably understate the importance of regulations in areas they aren't familiar with themselves. So if you want to open a business, seek a businessman's advice, etc. Or just do everything by the book to be on the safe side.
Brilliant ❤
Well, I am 62 now and not about to pick up and move my family to Russia. I’m doing OK here in NW Ohio.
But your videos are most interesting to me, as I was a Russian and East European Studies major in college and took three years of Russian language.

6% для бизнесменов находящихся на упрощенной системе налогообложентя, для мелкого бизнеса, для крупного бизнеса налог 18%, для физических лиц единый налог в 13%
In fact, it's certainly not that welcoming. There are many "hidden" taxes. Somewhere there was a realistic calculation of all expenses on the Internet, and payments can go beyond 50%
@@RedfvvgWhat do you have in mind? If an enterprise has employees, then yes, it pays the state about 40% (this is in general taking into account the income tax of 13%) for each employee this is the pension, social, medical fund of Russia, in general, due to these payments from enterprises, there is free medicine. Those. the employee himself does not pay anything for himself personally, the only thing that Russians pay themselves from taxes is the annual property tax, which is approximately 0.1% of the cadastral value of this property, and the annual transport tax is approximately the same. Those. For Russians, the concept of tax is very distant.
In Canada is about 25% tax for small businesses
Не надо врать. Общая сумма налога около 32 процентов. С зарплаты я имею в виду. Если вы на руки получили 60 тр, то налог составляет 23 тыс, которые платят работодатели. 13% это миф.
Thoughtful views of an experienced man, thank you.
Homeless situation is not quite what you describe. People are not given apartments for free. But they have options to spend night at shelter where they can wash, clean clothes, have a meal.
As for the taxes in Russia: if you are just an employee in a company, you are actually paying 13% taxes of your salary + the employer pays about 35% of your salary (it is on top of your salary, at the employer's expense) for you into pension fund, social security fund, etc.
But if you are a freelancer you can register with the tax authority as a freelancer (it can be made just in a phone app and the procedure takes literally 3 minutes, you don't have to file any paper documents) and pay 4-6% of you income basically through the same app.
You can also start your own business as a sole entrepreneur and pay 6% tax of the income + 1% donation to the social security fund.
If you are doing business as a medium/large scale company, you pay 20% VAT.
Hello!
6% tax - AFAIK it's a small individual business tax, larger businesses pay bigger taxes. The employer pays the social care tax for every employee (35% of the employee's salary). Hired worker pays the 13% income tax (not himself, the employer does the bureaucratic part on his behalf).
Homeless people do exist in Russia, they can be seen nearby big train stations. Of course, the scale of the problem is not like in the U.S. where it's even worse than Yeltsin's Russia when so called 'black realtors' were at their peak.
Write on piece of paper "Stop the war!" and go to the main square in any Russian and in any American city. And you will see the difference. 😀

Dude you are living in Moscow right? Saying "Russians are like" from Moscow is just as ridiculous as saying "Americans are like" from New York.
It's good that people like you (Americans) have lived in America and here and can compare lives there and here in Russia. You are talking about security in Russia on the streets. So during the Soviet era, there was even more security. Being a child (a schoolboy 10 years old), I could walk several kilometers around the city alone and nothing would happen to me.
В России исторически, власть была ответственна и брала на себя обязательства по защите общества и организации жизни. Иначе было не выжить!
В западной культуре, власть была средством силового отъёма средств у населения. И да я согласен с тем, что власть на западе, это преступники, а в России власть ответственна за народы и жизнь в стране. Хотя, внешне может различий и нет, но и сейчас без сильной, устойчивой власти России и её народам не выжить. Придут иностранные завоеватели и силой отберут всё, что принадлежало людям! А само население превратятся в рабов. Защищайте Россию!

Well, you actually can find some homeless people in a city. Rarely, but pretty possible. In general government or charity organizations do a lot to help those people. And lotss of them accept this help, but not all...
Перевод
Let's just say that our homeless are more likely ideological homeless. God knows what kind of romance they find in this, but still
It would probably be more correct to call your homeless people slackers looking for freebies. I live in a small town in the Tver region. I have never seen homeless people in my city. There are alcoholics and those who voluntarily lose their human appearance. but even they do something (sell scrap metal and the like) and live somewhere. No one is lying on the streets or living in tents.
Hello just found your channel and I have been heavily following those who same from the west and moved to my homeland and it’s an honor to see Russia do so well compared to 1995
As a russian who lived in europe where mexican food is actually present here and there, I do miss it back in Russia a lot, that being said however, I was always saying that mexican food for americans is like georgian food for russians, I got half of the office addicted to khachapuri, so while not exactly a replacement, definitely worth trying😅
If you happen to cook a lot/enjoy cooking, maybe show off and start advocating for mexican food among your russian friends so that demand for mexican cuisine will grow (damn I could use some quesadilla right about now... 🤤)
At least I'm glad to see jalapenos appearing as an ingredient here and there in various menus recently
Huh, you were shocked and surprised cause of snow in November?
Well, you're not alone there, as long as i could remember myself, every winter the snow comes a surprise for city services :D
Удачи, удачи, удачи!!!
Can you do a video on teaching English there?
I can say even more about pharmacies: I live near Almaty in a small village called Zhandosovo. We have several 24h opened pharmacies. In a village. Of course it's not Russia, but indeed we're the same in general
How many people live in your village?
@@ihikebc2295 I've checked Wikipedia and it says 5,5K in 2009. But now I guess it's over 10 thousand people. Village mayor (akim in KZ) even build new big school block. It is very popular place because lies near Almaty borders. And of course there's a beautiful nature with mountains, hills and rivers.
How much gets the pharmacist working 24/7 in your village? And how much gets a pharmacist in Germany or US? It is that simple: labor is expensive in the West and people work for a song where you live.
@@yurisolovyov2694 comparing wages do not forget to compare expenses. It costs MUCH cheaper to live in a KZ village than anywhere in Germany, especially in a city.
There were singificant number of homless people in Moscow ten years ago. Now there a lot less, yet there are some of them. My wife works in IT company that automates business processes for Moscow's social care for homeless people. There is a whole network of services and places for homless people to come for help. They can get food, use bathroom, get help in resocialization.
мне кажется вы побоялись признаться, что за каждым американцем в России гоняются Тамбовские волки , но это совершенно ясно по этому ролику)))
Тамбов очень красивый город. Но жаль, там нет волков )
We don't talk about the wolves 😂
медведи же!
Работа - не волк
Работа -ворк
Волк-это ходить!!
😁😁😁😁
The openness of Russians very similar to other European countries and in some countries like Finland for example people are much less open than Russians are.
Another correction. The climate in Moscow is very different from that in New York: enough to say that -20 °C is very rare in NY, and +40 °C is close to impossible in Moscow. I would compare the Moscow climate with Southern Canada rather than with East Coast USA: still not identical but closer.
Actually, with taxes is more complicated.
If you are self-employed (that's very suitable for service based economy) ypu pay 4 or 6% from any incoming money (4 from individuals, 6 from enterprises). For individual entrepreneurs there is flat rate about $500. For others, who are employed there is 13% flat income tax and almost 30% of social security and mandatory health insurance (this is payed by employer).
VAT is 18%, some special taxes on gasoline or alcohol is present too, done are off in special economical development zones...
So, it's basically ok, especially knowing a vast social services available for people.
VAT is 20% since 2019...
Это ещё не коснулся общего среднего и профобразования. И да, налоги от 4 до 13% и очень много разных систем налогового учёта. А уж про отдых и дачи диссертации писать можно 😁
В 4% - это без пенсионных.

TacoBell is not mexican food
Россия социальное государство! Это фундаментальная разница: у нас важно общее, а в Америке индивидуальное. Каждый барахтается в одиночку. Может показаться что у нас нет свободы слова, но это культура, а не политика! За слова принято отвечать, на западе смысл жизни - МНЕНИЕ высказать своё профанское, никому ненужное, враль постоянно- суть общения. В России за слово можно и по лицу получить.
Вот именно. Такая там свобода слова, что договорились до 40 гендеров.
Can you talk about what you do to support yourself financially while living there in Russia? Are you an I.T. guy who works for an American company? Or do you work as a private contractor, offering your services over the internet?
I teach English online to adults looking for conversation practice, and also to kids and teenagers with a local private school. Native speakers are in high demand because most of them left when the SMO started. I had an IT job and was working remotely, but it was extremely boring, and English teaching is so much more interesting and rewarding.

"24-hour kebabs. Pretty darn cool."
That's how Britain started to fall down the tubes.
I would pointedly NOT patronize ethnic restaurants, especially from South and Central American or Africa. It's like giving your little push to mass migration into Russia.
actually, we don't mind gays and lesbians here, but just do it private, no marriages and etc. if u do it under closed doors and don't spread about your addictions, you will be ok.
делаешь это?

Hello there,
Can a student engage in business activities, especially in the e-commerce sector, and register a company while studying in Russia?
Sure, why not?
As soon as you hit 18, you're free to do anything legal, including registering your own IP (ИП - индивидуальный предприниматель).
That's a legal business entity with its own tax regime (6% from total income by default + 40k RUB per year to social security funds).
If you're not a citizen yet, you'll need to have a work permit to do this, which sounds legit.
Good experience in Russia, good luck !!!
6:55 There is a cult of shawarma in Russia, as shawarma is considered a good dietary food. It consists of chicken meat, salad, sauce and pita bread.
Корейская морковка ещё :)
Я живу рядом)) там в начала на заднем фоне ЖК Одинбург)) А автор живет рядом с почтой.
6% is not maximum, but minimum of just one tax you pay in Russia, is you are certain type of a businessman. Regular people pay 13% income tax + ~15% "social tax" (several taxes) + 20% sales tax included into every price tag.
Мне кажется, что между белым американцем-христианином и русским, больше общего чем кажется! Именно то от чего избавилась Америка, приобрела Россия-это традиционные ценности, поэтому это и привлекает людей с традиционными взглядами и ранее составлявшими основу англосаксонского мира! Это моё личное мнение
Tax in Russia: 13% tax on annual incomes up to 5 million rubles, rising to 15% for anything over that level. For example, the Middle class for Saratov (American Dream Set) ~2mln...4mln rubles. Social security taxation is on the Employer but if you are individual entrepreneur you pay additionally for the Social security 6%
I live in a district which was planned and built in 70s. There are school, two kindergartens and about 15 long five-strored houses. It has all you need within 5 min walk, but god damn this place is a maze. I was lost several times when I was a kid within 150m from home cause every building looks the same.
Texas BBQ joint in Moscow is a good business idea
Вы были в грузинских ресторанах? Там всегда есть шашлык (по вашему барбекю), это очень вкусная острая кухня. Вам должно понравиться. Мы ее любим также, как вы мексиканскую. Например, сеть ресторанов Джонджоли, но их много разных.
Невзрачные одинаковые советские многоэтажки вполне доступное жилье, со всеми удобствами. В СССР не было бездомных у всех было жилье. Эти квартиры, возможно, доставшиеся от бабушек и дедушек или родителей хорошая материальная база для людей
14:27 the maximum tax is 15%; most people pay 13% tax. 6% tax is for some businessmen if they meet some conditions. 20:54 Russian pharma-companies pay lower tax: 10%. That helps to keep low retail prices. 23:07 perhaps, one of the reasons is that GMO is prohibited in Russia. So, all the food is healthy.
У большинства россиян есть загородные дома и дачи. Но зимой выбирают жить в квартире,потому что это удобно и дешево. В городах сосредоточены многочисленные кафе,клубы,рестораны,музеи,театры,супермаркеты,больницы,аптеки на доступом растоянии. Многоквартирных домах,за весьма символические выплаты,подается горячая и холодная вода,электричество,газ,уборка территории,вывоз мусора, и особенно отопление за долгие холодные зимы и многое другое. Это обьясняет почему россияне предпочитают жить квартирах отличие от американцев.
I was in Ufa, Russia for 2 weeks in 2007, and almost everyone liked Americans. I think they still would like us because they understand how we have no say in what our government does and Russians know all about that. Am I correct? I would like to return to Russia but being unliked concerns me. Please reply.
Well dome
I’m living in south of Quebec, Canada. It seems that our climate is same than in Moscow and around.
Yes. But in Russia there are southern regions where it is much warmer than Canada.
Reagan ran against Carter and Mondale. Bush Sr. ran against Dukakis.
Интересно, сколько американцев будет комментировать какого-нибудь разговаривающего по-русски блогера? )
США - страна эмигрантов. Там вряд ли кому-то будет интересно смотреть очередного трехсот миллионного эмигранта. А для нас это в новинку и вполне вероятно скоро тоже станет банальностью 🙂
С праздником!
Налоги у нас не 6%. Налоговая система намного сложнее и в зависимости от источника получения дохода и размера дохода ставка налога отличается.
Для самозанятых как раз 6.
I work in Russia. Making $93000 а year, tax is $180 a year, which is 0.02%, not 6% lol
