Let me guess, you are going to ask what if people who live in poverty can't afford fines for gay propaganda. Believe me or not, those people have way bigger problems than this. |
You're a joke. Another source for you to dismiss.
"the average household net-adjusted disposable income is estimated at 15286 USD a year"

For the average Russian household (not individual, household) this fine would eat up approximately 15% of monthly income.
