Shouts From Down Under

Timing and paranoia...nah, too much of a coincidence...

www.voiceofrussia.com has breaking news (April 1st...?) stating new compensation rates will be paid to Chernobyl Victims, and a few thousand will be elevated to Liquidator status.
Sounds good. But...$100? Am I missing something here?

$100. If the amount wasn't so low I'd think it was a bribe. Funny how this comes at a time when that country's government needs all the patriotic support it can get.

I feel for the real people in Russia. It's their country, their beautiful land that they should have been proud for their children to inherit.

But freedom and genuine success will never come while being ruled at gunpoint.

Is everyone really fooled?
