Somehow I don't feel sorry about this. I would probably continue to do so until Vladi is hanged.

Wonder if Putin will be deposed by all the new-money Russians who don’t like seeing their wealth destroyed; all because Putin wanted to take over Georgia, as part of his plan to be the next Peter the Great.

Oil futures are down to $90/bbl. Russia's cost of extraction is nowhere near as cheap as Saudi's. The USSR fell at the point where the price of oil went down to the point where they hadn't enough revenue to prop things up.
Europe and Asia stock markets are also heavily down (4-8%) and the Dow is currently down over 300 points.
That $700B was just to bail out Goldman Sachs and the connected investors. The rest of the world would need more money than currently exists.

Trading on Russia’s ruble-denominated stock market, the MICEX, was suspended today after its main index nosedived more than 15 per cent on worries about global financial turmoil. It would be nice if Senator McCain explained to Chairman Milhouse tomorrow night that this is what an economy that does not have solid fundamentals looks like.

Is there any reason I shouldn’t feel good whenever Russia or China have bad economic news?
To: TigerLikesRooster
Russian stock market is very small and does not reflect the real situation in economics.
Russian economics growth is about 6% and there is no problem while oil price is more than $60/barrel.
