Sex For Mother Russia

In the early 1990’s, at about the time of the breakup of the Soviet Union, the Russian population peaked at approximately 148 million people. Today, Russia, with one-seventh of Earth's land surface, has just 141.4 million citizens, making it one of the most sparsely populated countries in the world.

Further, consider that future population estimates are not favorable, and indicate that the population of Russia will decline by about 20 percent over the next 40 years. By the year 2050 estimates indicate a population of 111 million people. This would reflect a net loss of more than thirty million people from today’s population.

The primary causes of Russia's population decrease and loss of about 700,000 to 800,000 citizens each year are a high death rate, a low birth rate, a high rate of abortions, and a low level of immigration.

The World Health Organization estimates the life expectancy of Russian men to be 59 years. Russian women fare better with a life expectancy of 72 years. This difference is primarily a result of high rates of alcoholism among men. The high rate of alcoholism in men, poor economic conditions, and the country’s high abortion rate account for the low birth rates in the country. In fact, abortion rates in Russia are some of the highest in the world. Conservative estimates indicate 60% of all pregnancies end in abortion.

In his 2006 State of the Nation address, President Vladimir Putin called the demographic crisis the most acute problem facing Russia and announced a broad effort to boost Russia's birth rate. He announced a ten-year national program designed to encourage women to have more children. “We must, at least, stimulate the birth of a second child,” Putin said. Putin indicated that Russia’s low birth rate was due to (young families’/women‘s) “low incomes, inadequate housing conditions, doubts as to their own ability to ensure the child a decent level of healthcare and education, and – let’s be honest – sometimes doubts as to whether they will even be able to feed the child.”

Putin’s national program of increasing Russia’s birth rate appears to be well underway. The national program has the following initiatives:

Putin has authorized an increase in childcare benefits, including cash incentives, to support young mothers, especially those having more than one child. Women who give birth to their second or third child receive $10,000 vouchers to pay for education or home repairs. Putin also is significantly increasing the childcare benefits for children under the age of one-and-a-half. Part of the overall initiative is to improve healthcare in maternity wards of hospitals and improve orphanages.

The youth movement run by Vladimir Putin's Kremlin has become a central part of Russian political life. The movement is known as "Nashi", meaning "Ours". Its annual camp is attended by 10,000 uniformed youngsters and involves two weeks of physical fitness and lectures against democracy. The appeal of the free, two- week, holiday for young people who have little money and few prospects, is easy to see. Many are idealistic and eager to build a better country. Nashi promises to turn them into a patriotic movement that symbolizes a powerful new Russia. Nashi membership can open doors to a good career in government ministries and state-owned companies.

Attendance is monitored through the use of compulsory electronic badges. Anyone who misses three events is expelled. There is no drinking because alcohol is banned. Sex is encouraged. Women are given wholesome undergarments (because thongs are thought to be a cause of sterility) and condoms are not to be found. Upon instruction, couples move to a special section of dormitory tents arranged in a heart-shape called the Love Oasis, where they can start procreating for the Motherland. Numerous couples marry at the start of the camp's first and second weeks. These mass weddings are considered the ultimate expression of devotion to the motherland. The weddings are legal and conducted by a civil official.

Meanwhile, in the central Russian Province of Ulanovsk, Governor Sergei Morozovis is doing his part for Russia’s national program and has decreed Sept.12, 2007, a Day of Conception. He is giving couples a holiday from work to procreate. Couples who give birth nine months later on Russia's National Day, June 12, will receive money, cars, refrigerators, and other prizes, maybe even a new house. Prizes will be given to unwed mothers, but the biggest prizes go to married couples. At the town’s post office a sign urges locals to write love letters for free to anywhere in Russia with postage prepaid.

The goal of the national program appears to be the stabilization of the population at about 142 million by 2015 with a target of 145 million people by 2025. This can be achieved by increasing the birth rate through the incentives of Vladamir Putin’s national program which encourages Russian citizens to have sex for Mother Russia.
