During the last days of the cold war, a Russian peasant (call him Ivan) is sent to the store by his wife (call her Sonya) to get some sausage. Ivan goes to the local state-run grocery store and asks for some sausage. The store keeper informs him that there is no sausage. Ivan gets mad and points out that this Tuesday and the government always delivers sausage on Tuesdays. The store keeper says, "In the old days, you could be shot for saying that."
Ivan returns home and tells Sonya, "Things are much worse than I thought."
Sonya asks, "Are they out of sausage?"
Ivan replies, "It's worse. They're out of bullets."

Ivan replies, "It's worse. They're out of bullets." More BS.
