Well I'm sure that if Russian furniture is so fine and good value for the money, it will have no problems competing with Ikea on domestic or international market (and that is a big if). Or do you want in your absurd hatred of Ikea to ban it from the market, even though normal people like me for example would prefer it (I have several Ikea products that are just fine and are several years old). Anyhow, I don't see what you are arguing for, limiting the marketplace and imposing your will on what people actually what? First you argue for suck up to corruption or leave, now this... I admit, it's very tempting for me to give now a quick generalization of your statements as a reason for current economic status of Russia, but I won't because that would be also stupid.
