It’s called communism. Maybe not communism but definitely lack of personal liberty. Why bother functioning in life when there are evil men like Obama and Stalin who control every aspect of your life. Vodka provided the only escape from the mindless misery of life in Russia.

What about Britain which is by far more drinking than Russia? Same about Ukraine and Baltic states - by far the least communist post-Soviet states.

Yeah, but even before 1917, life in Russia was pretty crappy for everyone but the elite.

Same problem in Scandinavia. Except their societies are not reaching economic collapse, yet. Norway, for example, is completely propped up with oil money.

Interesting too, that it is disproportionately the men. We could theorize that the root cause is certainly communism, the sloth and lack of initiative and vision it allows for one's life but also the Marxist empowering of women with the simultaneous disempowerment of men.

We are seeing the same thing here with hard drugs. However, our society IS seeing economic collapse.
