\"The worst appears yet to come from Putin’s confusion of Russia, which

with
foreign sanctions presiding over a plummeting Russian ruble, Russia’s
economic
standing has fallen further still. If measured at today’s exchange rates,
Russia’s economy would be the 22nd largest in the world, with a gross
domestic
product (GDP) not much larger than the state of Ohio’s.” How do you say
“Mississippi, here we come!” in Russian?\"

And we know EVERYONE aspires to emulate Mississippi!  Even Alabama!

Yes, Russia was only capable of sustaining the lifestyles of the
Chicago-school economists and fat oligarchs they enabled in looting the
country after the fall of the Soviet Union.

That market capitalism would\'ve been able to provide an American-style
comfortable existence for all it citizens was a joke going in and they
knew it, it was simply a pillaging exercise.

Russia was making progress until lately.

https://www.statista.com/statistics/263777/gross-domestic-product-gdp-per-capita-in-russia/

although they still have about 1/4 the per-capita GDP of Alabama.

Even Putin seems to have been at least momentarily surprised that his
advisors and \"friends\" were robbing him blind to line their pickets &
telling him what he wanted to hear most of the time. \"Oh yes comra...er,
Mr. President, we use money make very good tank force! Best in world, of
course. We take much care to eliminate all corruption in procurement
process.\"

The Russians are better off under a corrupt kleptocracy than they were
under communism. The oligarchs realize that a reasonably free economy
creates more to steal.

The Chinese realized that too.

Lots of silly predictions in Newsweek and other mainstream media. World
renowned diplomats have predicted the disaster Ukraine has become,
spurred by NATO expansion to Russia\'s border countries.

THAT is the core of the problem. We reneged on all the assurances we
gave Russia after the USSR collapsed 30 years ago. Putin is now forced
to act to prevent himself ending up in the exact same position as Jack
Kennedy in the US back in \'62 and only a brainwashed fool would be
unable to understand that simple concept.
For a good time, check out Fox News\'s channel...

Or even their business channel...

https://www.youtube.com/user/FoxBusinessNetwork/videos

Search the page for videos about Ukraine and read the comments. Regular
Fox News viewers are BASHING the heck out of them in the comment sections.
It\'s a bloodbath. Similar thing happens with neocon Newsmax uploads...

https://www.youtube.com/c/NewsmaxtvLive/videos

Most Americans and probably most non-neocon non-liberal Europeans are
against participating in that war.

John Doe is a lunatic. His idea of \"most Americans\" includes only the lunatic fringe that is nearly as silly as he is.

https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2022/03/15/public-expresses-mixed-views-of-u-s-response-to-russias-invasion-of-ukraine/

Apparently some 33% of Americans favour direct US intervention even at the risk of a nuclear response from Russia, so there seem to be quite few left-wing lunatics in the US.
Or perhaps they think that Putin is sane enough to recognise the certainty that Russia would be wiped out in such an exchange. It\'s not an assumption I\'d be happy to make.
42% of Americans do think that the US isn\'t doing enough to support the Ukraine.

No, that\'s what Pew Research says they think. My part was contrasting what John Doe said about American opinion, with what the people who go out and and sample it say.

Flyguy is clearly deep into senile dementia, so he didn\'t notice this. His ideas about what I have proposed to do to my own country are no less demented.

Since John Doe wasn\'t actually replying to the post he\'d tagged his post onto, quoting any of it would indeed have been counterproductive.
Then again, since John Doe\'s posts are about a far from being constructive as you can get, anything he posts is counterproductive.

Putin is as mad as a cut snake but only half as smart. He probably will
pop a nuke at some point despite lack of viable targets.

Ukraine doesn\'t have dense concentrations of troops or supplies. So that
is a pretty crap target with only temporary advantages for nuke popping
and lots of long term bad.

Attack supplies in a country that is supplying Ukraine means attacking a
NATO country and hence activating clause 5 of the NATO alliance (an
attack against one is an attack against against all -paraphrased). Lots
of very long term bad.

Bomb Kiev. Which risks killing leader of the EU or UN and would in any
case be seen as a massive escalation and is a war crime of the highest
order.

The most likely is some poor schmuck Russian general will be given a
tactical nuke and a conventional force with orders to attack and make
sure his attack succeeds. Then if the nuke does not do what Putin wants
the General can be given a Soviet style trial (you know the ones with
the body bags and firing squad already assembled before the trial

You hear a lot about \"fairness\" these days: Republicans aren\'t paying their fair share of taxes (although Dems such as Jeff Bezos are), transgender old people aren\'t being treated fairly according to Lyin\' Biden, it isn\'t fair that Elon Musk bought Twitter (which blocked all speech they deemed unfair, i.e. not progressive ideology), etc.

Well, dictators don\'t play fair and they don\'t even pretend to play fair - they just do what they perceive to be in their best interests. People who object to this often end up dead. End of story. So it should not be surprising that Putin absorbed the successful parts of Hitler\'s strategies. Unfortunately for Putin, he also seems to be adopting some of the disastrous parts as well, like assuming he would have a quick victory in Ukraine.

tactical nuke and a conventional force with orders to attack and make
sure his attack succeeds. Then if the nuke does not do what Putin wants
the General can be given a Soviet style trial (you know the ones with
the body bags and firing squad already assembled before the trial
begins), and Putin can claim he is really for peace and had nothing to
do with it.

The ruble is at a two-year high.

And still only worth 1.4 cents each.

Whereas the Mexican Peso is worth 4 times what the Russian Ruble is
worth, AND Russian citizens have a hard time getting cash because all
the banks shut down.

Dancing around at the bottom of the barrel is still only dancing at
the bottom of the barrel.

And still nothing like \"plummeting\".

Whereas the Mexican Peso is worth 4 times what the Russian Ruble is
worth

So what? What does that prove except the relative value of currency is
more than meets the eye.

Mexico is a great place if you like cockfights, but what\'s Mexico\'s space
program like? Russia has been taking our astronauts to the space station
for the last fifteen years. If Russia were suffering from \"brain drain\" as
some foolishly claim, why does our government constantly warn us about
Russian hackers?
