: Ukraina is not third world country,maybe lot of people are.Eveybody knows whats wronge in Ukraina but the people that live there.Freedom requires people that know what they want in (for)their future,you have to grab the oportunity.You can't just watch the rich getting richer,you have to say to yourself I want some of that richness now too. But only"DOERS" get rich not the watchers.Ukraina is very rich country,there is enough for everybody to make good living but you have to find the way. Othervise you will be or are left behind and crying for the rest of your life.But I know for sure,that the poor certainly know how to have a party and have a good time.Whom are you going to blame for the situation in Ukraina? Lets put the blame where it belongs,and everybody knows where its at but they don't want to admit.
Look at the pictures in the last issue of "The Ukrainian Weekly" (Aug.27, 2000) how some people live in the rural areas of Poltavska oblast. Look at these older ladies, their faces and their house. I'm very ashamed how many poor are in Ukraine. It maybe not third world country yet, but where is it going, our Ukraina?
