Finally - A Lenin statue which is not point at me! He appear as if he want to check my testicles with right hand.
OMG typical Russian town look more like a Supermax prison Complex than a town, its soo depressing to see, I feel sorry for the poor people living there
I love the statue with spudnik in it, really symbolic.
looks like east london, just better statues.
Hmmmm…the top picture
The worker and the farm girl catch sputnik!
roads are very OK
btw. molybdenum

beep beeep beep
Wow! Wonderful!
Perfect insight into Soviet reality.
Poverty, misery and delusions of grandeur, with monuments to heroes, real or (mostly) imaginary.
I know its a small town but only 3 photo?
Just wait until next year. I heard they will take another photo then if budget allows.
Cant feel sorry for these people. They cant change anything and that shithole town will be a place where generations will be born in to and die and all of us. This is their town and they love it there.
Swede are you Swedish? or just hiding under someone elses nationality? and if you are Swedish.. I would not comment on these pictures in you place. Budget of this shithole town probably bigger than of your entire country thanks to that shithole mine.

yea, it’s budget must be enormous, just look at all those beautifull houses and wide brand new roads.
Of course, this mega-city is more prosperous than that poor shithole Sweden.
And to be honest - this Sransk city is one of the poorest in Russia (I suppose it’s because all of Russia’s 20 NON-oligarchs live here). So You can’t judge about prosperity of Russia by this one. All the rest of Russia is like Rublyovka and even more prosperous.
So, I thank God I don’t live in that shithole Sweden, and I dream if I could live in Sransk! Oh, God help me please to make this dream come true! Fck London, Paris, New-York etc all those crapholes. Sransk is the new global center, giga-megapolis!
GDP of Sweden - ~500 billion USD
GDP of Russia - ~1750 billion USD
3.5 times bigger! Grrrreat success!!!
Sweden: 9 million inhabitants
Russia: 140 million inhabitants
15.5 times more!!! Russia Almighty wins again!!! Hooorrrrayyy!
These simple numbers proves that Russia is 55 times more prosperous & economically developed than that 3rd world shithole Sweden.
Rasseja, vpiryooooot!!!
Just shows that numbers aren’t all that good as a measure.
USSR - 70 years and has a enormous gap in between between rich & poor, Poorest living in squalor.
Sweden - one of the smallest gaps between rich & poor in the world with high quality free medical care and education for all.
All that number says is that Russia doesn’t spend it’s money as wisely and fairly as the Swedes.
Hahaha Gena you pwned swede
Looks like some towns in East Germany. But no wonder because the Sovjets were there before:)
Next week I hear they get new McDonalds and Starbucks.
Why no Taco Bell I wonder???? Thats right - you need a Mexican to run the place and their all living here in America off my tax dollars - oh how I forget things!
Much as I respect you for flying F-16’s to defend me from the USSR - if they are working in Taco Bell - they are paying taxes too.
With - respect to my friend Scot(Hello buddy)
- the fact that they entered the country illegally
- they use someone elses social security card -usually from a dead person doesn’t mean they pay taxes.
Here is why : Jose and Rita have 1 kid. But, Jose puts on his tax form for withholding he has 12 kids - he cheats the tax system.
Next Jose makes baby with Rita and has no insurance and so Rita goes to the hospital for “free” medical because they are poor. Who pays??? Me!! My taxes!!
Lastly, Jose fills out his tax form and requests money back because he has 12 kids and in some states he will get all and extra money back(earned income credit) plus all federal minus his social security he paid.
In the end did Jose really pay taxes? No I did!!
Ok, lets add another twist to the story -Jose goes out and gets drunk(shock) and gets a DWI. Then, Jose gets another DWI and finally has to do some jail time. Jose has 12 kids and needs a attorney and so he gets a public defender for : free”!! Who pays for the public defender??? Not Jose - he is too poor - I Do as in my taxes that I pay!!
Sound impossible to be true???? This all really happened!!!
Jose worked for my family company (shock - we hire legal Mexicans) and was deported to Mexico after he pissed off the system so much.
Was my family heartless?? All uf us supported Rita and her new child and payed her rent until she moves back to Mexico.
Did we screw Jose out of his last paycheck?? No!!! He got all his money and all his vacation and all his yearly bonus.
Not against Mexicans at all - best workers we got and they are all well paid and loyal. I’m against not paying taxes or your fair share like most of those assholes we seem to be putting in cabinet postions in Obama’s administration.
Three points
1) The reason there is no Taco Bell is that it’s so bad that even the US can’t export it.
2) You are looking at this in entirely the wrong way. You NEED all those safety nets for the poor if you want to be a civilised country. You should be pissed off at your State/Country for allowing this to happen by not policing it properly, It’s kind of like punching the guy who fucked your wife. Who should you really be pissed off with?
3) Not sure how Obama will do but you guys really needed a change. Changes like bringing back the old fashioned notion of not imprisoning people without trial.
molibdenum, if I’m not wrong is very rare mineral and sooo expensive. But why this town became ruined when they’ve precious mine on it?
Hard to say. It’s an old russian tradition or that mysterious russian soul.
But don’t worry, russians are not stupid to waste precious minerals and stuff. Someone sure does recieve all possible wealth from that mine and is very rich. And all others are very proud of him wasting money in Monte Carlo, London, New York. Sransk inhabitants ar proud of their rich guys yachts, private jet planes! And there are lots of reasons to be proud of - the guy is richer than average stupid redneck american and he’s RUSSIAN! Oh my! Undescribable sense of pride for every Sransk inhabitant!
So why this town looks like it was under heavy bombing just couple minutes ago? Not Your business! Russia is a Great and Almighty Empire! So we don’t have to explain anything to You, our retarded enemies whom we will enslave soon!
“And all others are very proud of him wasting money in Monte Carlo, London, New York”
Right. It makes them feel that they are Great Nation.
Very nice…………..
