How about a more comprehensive measure like HDI? Where does Russia lie compared to other countries? Clearly with all the "free" healthcare and "free" education Russia should be near the top?
List of countries by Human Development Index - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Good reading about "free health care" in Russia.
