    SERGE SARGSYAN MAY NOT BE NOMINATED

    Serge Sargsyan has started behaving like a real "father of people".

    When he is asked questions about the home political situation,
    the activity of the first president, accusations against him and
    his relatives, he says that he is rather interested in the price of
    vegetable oil and butter. In other words, Serge Sargsyan is thinking
    about people. Certainly, people may say "what if he thinks", the
    price of vegetable oil and butter remains high anyway. However,
    people are maximalist and do not realize that if Serge Sargsyan did
    not think about people, they would buy vegetable oil and butter in
    grams. Therefore, we should be grateful to Serge Sargsyan that we do
    not have to borrow money from the bank to buy oil and butter, because
    he cares about the price of these products. If we are more patient,
    after New Year they may even bring the prices down to show what happens
    when Serge Sargsyan cares about people. Simply people should also think
    what will happen to the prices after Serge Sargsyan becomes president
    and for the upcoming four years, until the eve of the parliamentary
    election, he stops caring about the prices of vegetable oil and butter.

    Meanwhile, we are now in for asking political questions to the prime
    minister. We should not be surprised when Serge Sargsyan simply
    refuses to become a presidential candidate because the election
    campaign contains political elements, which distract from proactive
    efforts against the growth of prices. One day when Serge Sargsyan will
    be visiting a remote region, the owners of small shops may suddenly
    put up sabotage and cause a shortage of flour. What will happen to
    people then? Ashot Shahnazaryan with his commission for the protection
    of economic competition will kneel at the door of those small shops
    like the camel of trouble and will punish them for shattering the
    statehood, but in this case it will be necessary to attend to Ashot
    Shahnazaryan because he may be too furious and he may exterminate small
    shops. Meanwhile, a supermarket is not enough to become president.

    Perhaps therefore Serge Sargsyan is thinking about the growth of prices
    personally and he does not let the government agencies - the commission
    for the protection of economic competition, the Central Bank, the
    ministry of finance and economy - think about it. In a stable and
    sustainable country with harmonious development a prime minister need
    not think about prices. If the agencies which are meant to think about
    it perform their function conscientiously, the prime minister may do
    political activities if he wants to run in the presidential election.

    Consequently, either there is a state of emergency in Armenia when
    the head of the government personally deals with it, or the agencies
    which are supposed to deal with it and prevent emergencies fail,
    or yet the prime minister does not trust the government and expects
    just anything from them.

    In fact, Armenia is experiencing an emergency because the country
    which took the two-digit rate of growth for granted cannot sustain
    it any more through the surface of land and is now preparing to empty
    the mountains. Meanwhile, they are always saying Azerbaijan has oil,
    we have a flexible economy.

    Certainly it is flexible, like our language, but it is also barbaric,
    like our language, if we believe Charents, the poet. So barbaric
    that it is ready to destroy two thousand hectares of forest for two
    thousand jobs.

    The agencies which are supposed to prevent the prices from rising
    are not working either. For instance, the Central Bank states it is
    not entitled to keeping the exchange rate stable but to preventing
    the prices from rising.

    However, it turns out that the rate of exchange is dropping while the
    prices are going up. In other words, it is not known to the society
    what the Central Bank is busy with in reality.

    Finally, if one of us were Serge Sargsyan, would they trust the
    system of public administration which gave two pleasant surprises
    within a week to the prime minister while he was getting in touch with
    the system of public administration of the United States? First the
    sugar fever, than violence against the participants of the peaceful
    march. How can one trust the system any more? You have to think about
    everything personally, and no time is left for politics. Or maybe it
    is Serge Sargsyan's policy to show that only the problems are solved
    in the country to which the prime minister attends.

    A real father of people. However, people have had other "fathers"
    and must still remember what happens when one person makes all the
    decisions in the country, be it the people's "father", "brother", or
    "uncle".
