How the hell is this comment upvoted, it's insulting beyond belief.

I guess the solution could be to concentrate the poor backward slavs into some kind of fenced areas where they can live their primitive lives in peace without disruption from the outside world.

That's really not the point of his comment, at all.

He is not saying that CEE is backward. He is saying that the economic life in CEE is almost outside the control of local populations, because everything it's already controlled by western corporations.
