The Russian people in the future will be driving a Lada, while people in the West will be sitting in driverless cars.”
The people of Russia will retain competent skills the people of the west will become even less able.
Yeah! We Westerners have forgotten all the useful, everyday skills, like knapping flint, shaping awls out of bones, and patching the roof with dung.
The Russians will soon be relearning all of these valuable "life hacks!"
