Another sign of hyperinflation when people as quickly as possible convert the worthless currency into real goods. If you are in the market for a Russian bride your value to a Russian woman has shot up a hundred fold. :0

Well, now an old fat man can get an even younger Russian bride for nearly nothing! Also, any of the better Vodka’s Russia has should be sold for US (Ca ching) $$$$’s. Bad days for regular Russians, Putinistas, and dolts.

Russia is collapsing
so are many other countries in Europe, Venezuela, in Asia
the USA will also collapse. we already see deflation and the gas price is in a free fall.
all this due to Obama’s massive debt buildup of trillions of dollars
Obama already added more debt than all the other presidents combined
Obama is also acting like a dictator giving amnesty to illegals

In a couple of weeks, a loaf of bread will be a big ticket item in Russia.
To: C19fan
But wait, I thought according to all the prophets of doom this was supposed to happen here in the U.S. once the dollar stopped being the default trade currency?
How did that work out?

it’s not just Russia many other countries are also collapsing. the world economy will collapse. obama’s massive debt caused it. you think Obama’s multi trillion dollar debt buildup won’t cause the USA to collapse?

What would happen if we reset everything back to zero and formed all new trade agreements, tariffs, the works?
Or, what happens if we told China to pi$$ off and we dont send them a red cent? What can they do?

Ok. Maybe I'm naive and giving Obama too much credit for this theory...
Is it possible this is a designed retaliation by the U.S. over the Ukraine invasion and massive public support in Russia for Putin? The U.S. knowing we might be able to better withstand a rapid drop in gas prices better than Russia would? Sort of like Reagan outspending the USSR during the cold war?
I suppose I'm giving Obama too much credit for this. But it's a thought that's been in the back of my mind for a while. And something that I thought about when we were trying to figure out how to effectively sanction Russia after Crimea.

This is how the next world war gets launched. Stay tuned folks!

It is not just obama. You are letting the house and senate off the hook by blaming just one man. WHEN the collapse happens, we need to make sure we have names (and these names go back a few decades) so WHEN we begin to rebuild those names will never profit by us ever again.
