Yes, I want. You said there is no middle class in Russia, so I want you to explain it on my example. I'm a programmer. If think that programmer is a rare profession in Russia, so you are wrong (I's say that Russia is a country of coders). But ok, let's take someone much more usual than an IT specialist.
My brother in law is an office clerk. His wife is an office clerk too. They are absolutely regular people and they have no super-duper salaries according to the Moscow level. So they have their own apartments here, a good car (Nissan Murano), an own dacha, which is yet another suburban house with a land (yes they have a city apartments and a house outside the city). They go to vacations about two times a year (for about 10-12 days at once) to visit Cyprus, Greece, Mexico, Dominica, Thailand, Cuba and other resort countries, because they like to travel. Please tell me which exactly class these two Moscow clerks are belong too according to your criteria?
Please don't stir up shit. Just give me your answer to the straight question above.

I thought we were talking about Ukraine and not Russia. It is not so black and white by the way.
Moscow is not Russia. 12 million people is not so much compared to 140+ million people. I already said there are always people who has money. But Moscow is not representative here. Go to a village, and you will see old women that is riding a horse and a carriage.
