When they talk about "investment allowances" for housing rates and communal services, I translate into Russian as "robbery". "The Ministry of Construction offers a project for investment additions to heat, water and sanitation tariffs" ("Radio Sputnik"). Robbery is the use of force, lawyers may say it's theft or fraud. And the so-called "investment component" in the rate, I think, was included 10 years ago. This is the second time we pay for the same thing. I believe that in some areas this money will be used for investment. But, most likely, they will be used to feed businesses close to officials, the so-called concessions. "Feeding" is when in the Middle Ages a village or city was given to respectable people to feed. Today it's a great way to raise rates: "We give everything to businesses, and we raise rates because the business needs profit." We read the stunning book "Russia for us, our children and grandchildren: the transformation of the motherland. Deliagin's five-year plan: 2027-2031".
