Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev. (№ 451306)

Widespread paternalistic sentiments in society. Confidence that all problems should be solved by the state. Or someone else, but not everyone is in their place. The desire to "make oneself", to achieve personal success step by step, is not our national habit. Hence the lack of initiative, the lack of new ideas, unresolved issues, the low quality of public discussion, including critical speeches. Public consent and support is usually expressed in silence. Objections are very often emotional, biting, but at the same time superficial and irresponsible. Well, Russia has been familiar with these phenomena for more than a hundred years.
