[quote:Anonymous Coward 1280542:MV8xMzc2MzY0XzIyNjk4MTA0XzlCNEQxQjU5] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1280891] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1211168] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1280891] Russia as an organized state will likely not even be around in 3 years. Universal ID = FAIL! [/quote] Do you know where they might be going? [/quote] Planetary upheaval is ensuring that most - not just Russians - are leaving this 'world' altogether. More to the point, though, look at what's happening in Russia right now. They've stopped exporting wheat because their crop yields are tanking. This means massive food shortages coming. Last summer, Russia just about burned down. Remember those fires? And beyond the fires, what's Russia environmental condition? Not good. Also, it's government is 'top heavy', meaning that it won't take much for it to go under because there's not going to be anything left to support it. What will this year bring as things continue to 'heat up'? I wouldn't be worrying too much about these political schemes to tag everyone. There likely won't be too many left to tag as it is! [/quote] The "top heavy" government clawed out of a piss poor Moody's Rating and bankruptcy in 1998 because they took back what was inherently Russian. Their natural resources. That 'top heavy' government is led by a leader whose thesis was on the importance of a nation's god given wealth (in Russia's case, it's gas and oil) to the health of the nation. What does the US government have? Ben Bernanke, and Walmart lobbyists. [/quote]

Imagine a piece of plastic that gets you a doctor's appointment, pays your bills, allows you to rent a car or buy a plane ticket and even get Moscow registration faster than the sham ads in the Moscow metro.
President Dmitry Medvedev promised Monday that three years from now all Russians will have this magic card.
He gave the government till May to make final calculations of the funds necessary to introduce the universal electronic card, or UEC, for all citizens and urged banks to not take advantage of card users at the meeting of the commission on modernization and technological development of the economy Monday.
