Socialism, capitalism or what's the matter? a little of Ukrainian reality

When I am starting to think about Ukraine and its actual problems my head is aching. And the reason is not only in the country itself, the thing is in people and their attitude to the country and to each other.
Ukrainians have always been controlled by someone, some other power. Hence, we have used to be controlled and guided. It is really hard to look up back to the ancient times and realise that Ukraine was divided. This big pressure has been passed on through generations and ages. Now, we have to face a result - the nation is acting in its independent country like not at its home. Why? Being home means to invest in this home with a lot of love and energy, since that is the place where you are coming back again and again.
Ukraine is only 20 years old, a little girl with big hopes and expectations. It is a pity to hear all around: "Ukraine is full of idiots", "Lost country", "I am leaving this country, it has no future", "the government doesn't work anything", "it is better to be a cat in the UK than a person in Ukraine", and so far and so on. I think we are not grown up enough to understand that now we are responsible for our future. We are! A lot of people do turn towards post-USSR rules and morals. I don't want to be too critical, but I think these people shall be worring about their children and grandchildren more. Just looking back doesn't help too much to cope with problems! We have chosen our way, our country and our new development. The question? What are we doing to reach our target in order to live and prosper in the country we are all born? I think there is no need to answer on it, since everybody of you knows the real situation.
Being young enough and trying to decide my own life I am always coming to the philosophical thinking about my future, consequently about the country where I am living. Ukrainians are living in the "home of socialism", even though the global economy hitched us into the capitalism with its free way of thinking, the right for private ownership and the battle of competition. It is hard to switch the way of doing things and the mentality of people. Yet, if it won't be made somehow, Ukraine will continue to be a country of HOPELESS nation. We should lean to the society, which is responsible for its actions. We need a HOPE in our future, in our country and OURSELVES.
