That's not what I said, as far as foreigners trying to undermine America's competitiveness, it's not JUST Putin, and ALWAYS IS Obama. Focus there.
And yeah, Obama is a foreigner.
Putin’s authoritarian government owns and runs the entire Russian energy sector, as well as all banking and most media. Conversely, the US energy sector, banks and most media are not run by the government. Putin’s Russia is far more fascist than the USA. Obama only wishes he had the kind of control over the US economy as Putin has over Russia’s.
What are the 5 biggest differences between National Socialism and Putin's Socialism?
You’re gettin’ into horse manure territory now, Todd.
Why won’t a single Putinista answer that question?
Because Putin is on a mission from God, and against the EU, Barack Obama, George Soros, and the Nazis.
That was in June, but in July I see several article talking about more bans.

Last week, Germany’s energy and environment ministers announced that they were considering a ban on shale oil and gas drilling. Barbara Hendricks, minister for the environment, went so far as to say that these would be the “strictest regulations [Germany has] ever set” and that “there will be no fracking for economic purposes in Germany in the near future.”

“There will be no fracking for economic purposes in Germany in the near future,” German Environment Minister Barbara Hendricks announced at a press conference on Friday. Under her proposal, developed jointly with fellow Social Democrat and Economics Minister Sigmar Gabriel, most forms of hydraulic fracking—the process of extracting gas by injecting water and sand mixed with a small amount of chemical additives into rocks deep underground—will be prohibited until 2021.

Fracking has cut gas prices in half in this country while the German government has just decided to ban the technology at least until 2021.
