"Patience is about to burst"
Perhaps one of the most notable events of the plenary meeting recently in Ufa was the speech of VGTRK journalist Konstantin Semin. According to the journalist himself, he hardly expected the organizers of the event to make him one of the participants, because it was obvious that his position was radically different from today's economic and political mainstream.
But despite this, the speech caused a serious revival of the visitors to the meeting, now and then bursting into applause at Semin after his next statement. It was about poverty, inequality and injustice, topics that are on the agenda of the forum and are so topical that the mere mention of any of them causes sarcastic neglect and desperate indifference. Nevertheless, Semin’s approach, without exaggeration, dumbfounded some speakers, by the recognition of which they had long since lost the habit of such rhetoric. For the first time in many years, the terms long-forgotten by handshake citizens, the terms surplus value and exploitation, as well as the Marxist theory, were again made widespread.
The answer of one of the economists and participants in the forum, Mikhail Dmitriev, who, as a counterargument, put forward very inappropriate theses that the market economy It provides the highest growth rates of the economy and welfare, and also noted the preference for this type of economy, arguing that the largest number of countries follows this path.
