The outright US theft of $300 BILLION in Russian reserves held in the US

Sanctions are fine. Russia should be allowed to access their billions in the U.S., it's their money. We have not declared war on Russia. We are just not happy with them, I get that.

Now countries in the 3rd World will have a difficult time trusting us. So we better get our financial house in order, stop printing all those dollars and running massive deficit with your federal budget.

We agree we should not steal Russia’s money. That makes us another crackpot state that, as you say, cannot be trusted. The implications of that will be enormous in the future. It already has and will only get worse.

As for sanctions. We probably disagree. Sanctions are not okay. They don’t work and, in fact, cause as much harm to us as the intended target — at least in the case of sanctions against a large country like Russia.

Inflation at almost 9% and growing (the highest in 40 years), negative GDP, and continued growth of our $30 TRILLION in debt is the price each and every American is paying for the incompetent leaders who are taking us down this stupid and insane path.
