I found a tub of old papers, etc., buried in the garage, the other day.
There was a ‘section’ of grocery store coupons...that was an inch thick...from ONE paper.
Nowadays, the coupons (in our grocery mail flyers) are maybe 6 pages, total.
The only coupons I get in the mail are restaurants.
Russian Fossil Fuel Revenues Double Despite Western Sanctions
The longer Western sanctions isolate Russia and reduce energy supplies to European refiners. The higher energy prices will go. Even though Russian energy exports are declining, higher prices have enabled the country’s state-owned oil and gas companies to double revenue, thus stabilizing the ruble and allowing financing for President Putin’s military machine.
“Russia has effectively caught the EU in a trap where further restrictions will raise prices further, cushioning its revenues despite the best efforts of EU governments,” CREA explained.

I think they used Russian invasion as an excuse to further their climate change agenda. The food shortages too.
