Even if Russia never made anything in its entire history, it’s still the world’s largest country and it still ( magically?) has plenty of icbm’s. Gratuitously insulting comments like this are childish in the extreme. They are both unnecessary and stupid -— and potentially quite harmful.
Strong words from a pussy that only makes sh!t.
Looking forward to hearing or seeing Russia’s response to that in the next few weeks.
Russia "makes" obama look stupid and incompetent.
Russia makes pornography.
The Comme pink fag is drinking his own koolaid.
We don’t make much here either... ‘making stuff’ is pretty third world.
Trying to start a war as a distraction to the mass illegal immigration of D voters.
You're forgetting porn.
The Russian economy will improve when the Russian free themselves from the incompetent leadership of Putin.
Impeach NOW
In 2013, exports from Russia amounted to US$526.4 billion, up 74.4% since 2009. Russia’s top 10 exports accounted for 73.4% of the overall value of its global shipments.
Zero doesn’t consider $526.4 billion to be a significant amount of money.
Russian’s oil and gas export earnings are $362.2 billion, or 14.5% of GDP.
President Barack Obama dismissed Russia as a nation that “doesn’t make anything”
This Kenyan Commie is a pompous Ass
He destroys and never builds anything.
The Kenyan Kommie King....
~~~~~~~-— “Immigrants aren’t rushing to Moscow in search of opportunity. The life expectancy of the Russian male is around 60 years old. The population is shrinking,” he said. -—
What’s the point of stating this? Vindictiveness? He doesn’t appear to want to help them. What a douche.~~~~~~~~~
Really?
These are the countries with the most immigrants.
1. United States of America
> Immigrants: 45.8 million
> Pct of population: 14.3%
> GDP (PPP) per capita 2012: $49,922
> Gov’t immigration goals: Maintain
The U.S. is by far the largest destination for immigrants, with more than 45.7 million living in the country, according to the UN. As of 2011, the U.S. government’s policies toward both immigration and emigration remained effectively neutral. However, immigration reform has been especially prominent in Congress this year. This reform is expected to address issues related to illegal immigration, while determining how, and whether, undocumented immigrants should be able to attain citizenship. Considering the U.S. has one the highest per capita GDPs in the world, at nearly $50,000, its appeal to immigrants is fairly straightforward. It is the world’s largest economy, as measured by output, and has the second largest total exports. Also, the U.S. offers well-developed infrastructure and financial markets, as well as quality education.
2. Russian Federation
> Immigrants: 11.0 million
> Pct of population: 7.7%
> GDP (PPP) per capita 2012: $17,709
> Gov’t immigration goals: Increase
More than 12 million immigrants lived in Russia in 2010 and the Russian government was among the few seeking to increase the number of foreigners entering the country. In 2011, the country’s government viewed immigration as too low and oriented its policies towards increasing immigration. However, these policies have failed to attract more net immigrants: as of this year, there are just over 11 million immigrants living in Russia, a decrease of roughly 10% from 2010. Local authorities have not embraced the prospect of single-ethnicity communities for Chinese, Uzbeks, Tajiks and other ethnic groups in Russia ,and have even sought to ban them in some cases, hoping instead to promote integration into Russian society.
3. Germany
> Immigrants: 9.8 million
> Pct of population: 11.9%
> GDP (PPP) per capita 2012: $39,028
> Gov’t immigration goals: Maintain
Germany, one of the world’s largest economies, is a popular destination for immigrants. Its well-developed infrastructure and top-rate higher education only add to its attraction. Just under 10 milllion of the country’s 82 million residents are immigrants. As of 2011, Germany’s policies reflected approval of the country’s rate of immigration. In 2012, with the eurozone crisis still unabated, a growing number of young workers immigrated from southern Europe to Germany. But Germany has openly recruited high skilled-workers to live and work in the country permanently, especially as the country’s population ages and shrinks, according to Der Spiegel. Unfortunately, many such workers fail to stay for even as little as a year, and since 2010 the number of immigrants to Germany has actually dropped.

Russia is the second most attractive place for immigrants, after USA. Germany is #3 and the rest of the nations combines aren’t attracting as much as these three.
~~~~~~~~~~~~petroleum and petroleum products, natural gas, metals, wood and wood products, chemicals, and a wide variety of civilian and military manufactures.
Russian’s oil and gas export earnings are $362.2 billion, or 14.5% of GDP~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Only 14,5% of GDP doesn’t actually look like that much of petrocracy.
I thinks Russia doesn’t make anything because he hasn’t heard about it in news reports.
The Mongols invented one of the first hard liquor stills. Portable. ...and maybe stirrups.
You think he reads? I'm guessing he ONLY spouts what Jarrett tells him to say.
