OPINION POLLS

NEWOnly one out of 300 Russian students polled wants to become a businessperson, according to Russian Business Ombudsman Boris Titov. The rest would prefer leading a “safe and stable” life as a government employee. Why do you think the Russian youth shuns risk-taking and seeks the quiet of a salaried office position with little responsibility?

Young people are just too infantile to take calculated risks.

They wisely think of how to provide for their future families, which is easier in a salaried position.

Doing business successfully takes a special gift that few possess.

A businessperson in Russia has to face overwhelming difficulties that the state has created.
