Vellach Samie “real problems” or “threat to a society” cannot be suppressed. This is why Russia’s leadership cannot suppress real social problems. It seems you are confusing Russia with the U.S where threats to society are used to engage in endless wars of aggression. Also, you speak of hidden impending of Russia’s shortages. This is a line we come to associate with those who hate Russia such as the neocons. Ironically, they never say anything about the things which Russia has immense quantities –such as gas, oil, coal, water, forest, largest country, marine resources and lot of nukes: all of which the Anglo American imperialists dream of accessing and possessing. This is interesting because despite their designs to possess Russia’s immense resources, the U.S and British elite and their corporate media almost always speak about Russia in terms of shortage: declining population , poverty, corruption, etc. Now, about this youth camp, it is part of a tacit strategy to brainwash Russia’s youth and turn them into apolitical individualistic and that is why I do not think they are helping the youth to develop their greatest potentials. This is nothing like the great communist summer camps when boys and girls were allowed explore the forest and dreamed becoming botanists, pilots and engineers so to defend their motherland and advance their society. This camp will not instill common ethnics or common goals-instead, these young people are encouraged to come up with ideas which they can patent and make money from. It is pathetic mimicry of the U.S under Reagan years. Russia is becoming really sort of parody as many of this idea are 30 years behind social trends. Neo-liberal has been discredited but this ideology you Russians are encouraged to mimic. Commercial enduring ideas do not come out of this type of contrived camping.

This kind of youth groups are a joke. Nobody really knows the true problems of Russia except maybe the Top leadership who keep mum. On on hand Russia is facing shortage in various regions. Lack of health care, shortage of medicines, lack of support for exports, lack of funds for product development. On the other hand, Herr Kudrin is saying Russia would help EU in its financial  problems. Does that mean Russia has so much money to help others but not their own?Reports indicate Russia has more then 350 Billion in foreign exchange. But Other Reports indicate Russia's debt is above $500 Billion. what does all that means? There has never been a real youth development to use Russia's abunda nt resources. I mean its people. Real Russian Talents are being hijacked by western countries with better wages and living. And the best this anti-Putin groups can do is go hiking, barbecue, music and speeches propag ating western poison.  & nbsp;

I do not think this generation will ever achieve the great feat of their great-great grandfathers, grandfathers and fathers. The reason is very simple: the theme of the gathering is about ideas that can generate knowledge useful for commerce and not knowledge useful for itself or for society. This is a camp not for training pioneers frontier activists but for the next generation entrepreneurs. Enduring ideas almost never come out of this type of camps. This camp is training Russia’s version of Reagan’s Yuppies generation who turned American society into one giant corporate driven private enterprise!
