The Russians have a national debt of $346B. That’s after reducing it by 8% this year while fighting a major land war and a victorious economic world war against the West. What’s the US debt, 32 or 33 TRILLION! It’s hard to count fast enough to keep up. Who’s bankrupt? In another a year we will have borrowed and pi$$ed away enough on Uke corruption to clear the Russian national debt.

Banks open on Monday morning and you are free to go to the bank and trade all your dollars for rubles.

Quite honestly, I’ll wait for the new BRIChinaS, based on gold, currency. Unfortunately, for most middle class Americans, they have no dollars to trade in. Working and middle class Americans are now as bankrupt as the federal government.

You're beyond stupid, Marcus.

The ruble has weakened by the Russian government to make it easier to sell grain on the world market.

Alexander Mercouris explains:

EU pressures Russia to rejoin grain deal.

Mercouris: "The second thing that is really worrying the Europeans is, of course, that there is on big grain exporter, food exporter, that is able to step in which is Russia. They had another bumper harvest. The ruble is soft, INTENTIONALLY SO. Russia's food is now extremely cheap on world markets. Russia is a strong position to exploit Ukraine's disappearance from the food scene and takeover Ukraine's market."

Russia’s lunar lander launched a few days ago and will be the first craft (if successful) to explore the polar regions of the moon.

As for poverty . . . here is a grocery store in Vladivostok:

We're gonna have to rewrite the lyrics to Oklahoma!, the musical:

OOOOk-lahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain,
And the wavin' wheat can sure smell sweet, When the wind comes right behind the rain.

OOOOk-lahoma, Ev'ry night my honey lamb and I, Sit alone and talk and watch a hawk makin' lazy circles in the sky.

=========================================

YoooKraine, my homies, where the Great Counteroffensive comes sweepin' down the steppe,
And the wavin' wheat can sure smell sweet, When the Russki artillery comes right behind the rain.

YoooKraine, my homies, Ev'ry night my foxhole mate and I, Sit alone and talk and watch a ZALA Lancet makin' lazy circles in the sky.
