The metro in Moscow is clean, safe and many are elegant with statues, murals etc. New York subway is dirty, dangerous, and graffiti laden.
When the Soviet Union collapsed the government gave the government apartments to the people living in them. GAVE. And the government is responsible for taking care of the outside the buildings including the roofs.
I spent 7 months in Russia in 2014. So I know about Russia first hand. You claim to.
Your tone shows you are just a Russia hater. And your facts you get from where?
Lead pipes in Russia?
"Lead in the drinking water is still a problem in many parts of the U.S. This toxic metal has been banned from water pipes since 1986, but many homes were built before that." "Lead exposure is especially high in Chicago, which has the most lead pipes out of any U.S. city, largely because the city code required the use of lead service lines until the year they were banned."
"In Chicago, about 400,000 homes still get their tap water through lead service lines — pipes that connect individual homes to the main water line.
"And nearly 70% of young children are getting exposed to lead from their home tap water, according to recent estimates published in JAMA Pediatrics. The study also finds that Black and Hispanic neighborhoods are more likely to have lead exposure, but less likely to be tested for lead."
"They estimate that about 1 in 5 children who live in homes with lead-contaminated tap water drink it as their primary source — likely leading to high levels of lead in their blood." per study study by Benjamin Huỳnh, assistant professor at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, and associates.
"Last fall, the Environmental Protection Agency proposed “Lead and Copper Rule Improvements,” which would require most water systems to replace all their lead service lines over the next 10 years.
Under the proposed rule, however, Chicago would get an exemption because it simply has too many lead pipes. The EPA considers it “technically possible” for water systems to replace up to 10,000 lead service lines a year, which means Chicago would still be allowed to have lead pipes for the next 40 to 50 years.
“That’s decades. That’s generations of children and adults consuming lead contaminated water,” says Chakena Perry, a senior policy advocate with the Natural Resources Defense Council based in the Chicagoland area. “It’s incomprehensible to tell a resident that they need to wait that long for safe drinking water.”
The EPA is expected to finalize the “Lead and Copper Rule Improvements” by late October 2024."
"EDF identified 10 cities in the U.S. with the most lead service lines (LSLs) based on numbers reported in 2021.[1] These cities collectively have over one million LSLs, representing 12% of the 9.2 million EPA estimates are in the country."
I mean, really, you are simply an anti Russian propagandist.
