Russia Has No Future

[Toro]

A few years ago, I interviewed a young Russian woman for a position. She was from Moscow and now living in New York.

I asked her why she didn't stay? I told her that I had met many Russians. They were all extremely smart and talented. Why not stay in Russia?

She said that there was no future. She would rather be in America.

That sentiment is now 10x worse.

The Kremlin is kaput.

The Kremlin is kaput.

An infamous German leader thought the same thing in 1942. ....

 

[Manonthestreet]

Did Putin really want to demonstrate his army is as inept as ours to the Chinese?

 

[JGalt]

Seems like an infamous German leader said the same thing in 1942. .

That was a slightly-reworded line from the movie "Saving Private Ryan."

What on earth can Putin accomplish from this? An occupation in a blown up country that leads to daily guerrilla attacks on his own troops? A populace that hates him? Complete isolation from the rest of the world? His own people hating him as their bank accounts become worthless?

This is becoming one of the worst decisions in world history.

Russia’s economy is already in the crapper. And it is only going to get worse.

Russia's credit rating at junk status, annual inflation at 61% (Will Putin institute martial law?)

hotair.com

Right now, inflation is at 61%. Think about that for a moment. Trumpsters on this board are wailing at mid to high single digit inflation, and Russia is looking at ten times that with no end in sight to how high it might go.

During the Great Depression, there is a famous photograph of Reporters in Germany taking notes on money. It was cheaper to use the money as notepaper than it was to use the money to buy notepaper. That is how worthless the cash was.

Before Ukraine is defeated, the exchange rate for Russia will be so bad that you’ll be able to buy St. Petersburg for the equivalent of a small hatchback economy car. Assuming you could smuggle a small suitcase of money into the country, since transfers of cash is impossible via banking systems.

And with everything getting actually worse for Russia, there is no end in sight.

Think about this. American and European built planes in Russia still need service, but they can’t get parts, so the planes will either be grounded, or flown in a dangerous state. Russian built planes can’t leave Russia, the airspace is closed to Russian Airlines. And even if they could fly somewhere, they couldn’t fly back, because with the banks frozen, there would be no way to pay for the airport fees, or fuel costs.

Russian flagged ships, well they are about to have real problems. No way to dock, no way to pay for fuel, and no way to do anything. Russian Sailors will be wondering how many years it will take them to return home to family.

The Russian Economy is collapsing so badly, that I wonder how the entire nation will manage to sleep on a steam vent. In a year, or so we’ll be seeing commercials about adopting Russian children through Childfund because they can’t afford basic things like food, and clothing.

Of course, attractive Russian women will be selling themselves as Mail Order Brides, or hookers, to the west. While Putin is telling the West to kiss his ass, Russian women will be kissing a different anatomical part to try and earn a little money to keep their families alive.

Way to go Vlad. You’ve undone decades of advances, and now are causing an environmental disaster of epic proportions.

So your assessment of Russians had no effect on her decision. Thats odd considering you both hate them.
As for having no future, that is yet to be determined.

That sentiment is now 10x worse.

I don't hate Russians, troll.

But you hate America.

 

[Colin norris]

But you hate America.

A republican not hating communism??? That'll make headlines.

Because I'm stating the obvious result from the conversation, you have the intelligence to assess my hatreds etc????
How brilliant are you?

And you think Ukraine is any better? Their people half to spend half their paycheck on their heating bill. Zelensky shuts down opposition media and jails journalists he doesn’t like. All while he enjoys having a $1 billion bank account in Costa Rica and buying $30 million dollar mansions in Florida.

I don’t know much about war
Can’t US special forces “sneak “ into Russia and deactivate the nukes then quietly sneak out
Then we can nuke all of Russia for good

Hello theHawk, absolutely There is surely corruption but it is not an excuse to invade a sovereign country and threaten everyone with nuclear weapons to the point where I am in France, I will soon be moving to Canada.

You seem to be not very smart and it seem easy for you to insult the members when they do not agree with your democratic beliefs in the Xiden no good world.

Agreed. Even in prison, if one felon attacks another, the offender is still charged. The fact that the victim is not blameless does not mean no crime is committed. And even that vignette does not go far enough. In this case the victim is in prison for credit card fraud and the offender is in prison for multiple murders.

I don't know why this has to be pointed out over and over.

Not really.
I'm purely stating the obvious but you won't accept it. That's your problem but while ever you guys continue to leave yourselves wide open, I'll remind you.

I agree, like a Ukraine told a French journalist not in threatening way but to mean a reality, You are not immune to experiencing the same thing as us she said to him, so even you Americans are part of this reality in the face of the nuclear threat, even though you are the world’s leading military the most powerful one.

toilets and highways shuddered in Poland

There will be a new redistribution of the WORLD.
Sanctions are useless, as Russians have been used to such troubles throughout their history.
Now there is a patriotic upsurge of Russians against the Nazis on the territory of the Former Ukrainian Socialist Republic.
I am sure that Uncle Vova knows how to play "political chess" and he will soon begin to restore the Empire

Avengers I think they're called. I wonder what you need your army for when you've got a fit team of fantastical perverts able to accomplish anything.
