ONE POLL FINDS MORE OPTIMISM ABOUT ECONOMIC FUTURE...
In a poll conducted by ROMIR Monitoring in early August, 46 percent of 1,500 respondents said that Russia's younger generation will be richer than their parents, according to monitoring.ru on 21 October. Twenty-six percent thought the level of prosperity will be about the same, while 23 percent thought the younger generation will be worse off. When the survey question was first asked in 1999, only a third of respondents thought the younger generation will be more prosperous, according to lenta.ru.
