did you know that Russia is running out of Russians?

I would assume that since so many Russians are showing up here that their numbers are decreasing over there. How do you know if Russians have moved next door? A clue is if their dog is named Natasha. Can't tell by their English, which is often above average for Americans.

I'm personally responsible for putting five Russians with postgraduate educations into the U.S. They all are now PRs or citizens, all are earning well into six figures, and one is a stock-option millionaire. These guys are going to pay for 20 average citizens' Social Security pensions. We have imported literally tens of billions of dollars of other nations' brains. But we need to be more careful about importing their welfare cases and criminals.
