Russia has a thin middle class that is primarily resident in Moscow and St. Petersburg. The most recent OECD statistics show that Russians have an average household income of $13,000 a year, compared to an $85,000 average household income for the US. Cheap groceries in Moscow impressed Tucker without any indication that he recognized the larger context that most Russians are quite poor by American standards.
