Russia Can't Afford To Turn Off The Gas

America can't afford obamacare

America can't afford to outsource it's entire economy

America can't afford to subsidize the world's poor with food stamps

America can't affort to continue enemies of the state run the state.

I couldn't give a flying crap about foreign affairs right now.

Instead of shutting down pipelines, Putin has an opportunity to greatly enrich Russia’s economy and also hurt Europe by simply raising the price of Russia’s oil and gas exports.

Saudi Arabia and its fellow OPEC members greatly enriched themselves during the 1970s by raising the price of their oil exports, and Russia can do the same now.
