Hearted Youtube comments on Econ Lessons (@EconLessons) channel.

  1. India has allied with Russia for a long time. Their military uses Russian kit. They are not neutral.

  2. Wow! Sounds pretty hopeless in Russia. Sounds like Putin is making the country into one giant slum.
    154
  3. Russians is only champions in suffering

  4. I am human who was born in SovietUnion. And i remember that all religion was removed/destroyed and replaced with KGB imposters. Thank you for you videos. Hello from Ukraine !

  5. Fun Fact: Some CSTO countries immediately stopped trading in rubles because they knew every Russian and Russian bank would buy out their stock of foreign currency and leave them with mountains of worthless currency. I would imagine many countries and institutions will follow suit (China and India already refuse to use rubles for exchange with Russia).

  6. It's official, the russian ruble is rubble 🤪
    149
  7. Yes...in Israel we have A LOT of Russians and they all say the same thing: " one hour's drive out of Moscow and you're back in the 19th century".....

  8. You're a very smart man. It is collapsing, because no country in the world is willing to use the Ruble any longer. This means that Russia can only buy what they need with their gold or resources. The only reason that prices are affordable, is Putin's forced price controls.

  9. Yeeeee Mark and my morning coffee! Enjoy your analysis dude keep it coming

  10. Thank you, Mark. It's good that you remind us not to fall into the trap of a seemingly "simple" solution. The time has come for us as an international democratic community to finally draw our own "red lines".

  11. But but but Putler said clearly the sanctions are only helping Russian economy 😂

  12. I am from Lithuania and I used to really feel pitty for the Russia before 2022 due to the gigantic loss of opportunity. What we, Lithuanians, achieved throughout 33+ years of independence is massive, insane. And yet, we don’t have such abundance of resources like Russia has around the surface, in depths of the soil, sea (Dutch disease, sure, is the reason). But, anyways… I really hope that one day Russia (🤍💙🤍) will eventually succeed and will be part of the world which Italy, Germany, and Japan joined after the capitulation. I pray everyday for the better world ✝️🙏☦️

  13. Well, just what I thought over the last months, when guys told me Russia is so rich it must win the war - and I remembered, what everyone told me in 1990. What I now expect is history repeating, like after the Crimean war before 1856: Russia is bancrupt and gives Land for money. This time it is not Alaska given to the USA anymore, this time, it is far East around Vladivostok in Siberia given to China for money. That is what I really expect in the coming years.

  15. I happened to be in Germany near the fall of East Germany in 1990. My uncle is an avid hunter and we went to an area that housed a Russian army base near the border. When the wall fell, the soldiers were simply abandoned - the entire system collapsed and they had no chain of command or logistics to get back to Russia. Once I saw the base and the facilities occupied by about 100 troops I realized that we should have never feared them. The fact that the Russians citizens have been treated like garbage by their government for centuries, they are used to suffering and struggling through life.

  16. Slowly your predictions turn out to be reality…

  17. When the CCP shut down the Hong Kong financial system, I told my wife that I was no longer afraid of China.

  18. I'm willing to pay 10% not to finance a bad actor too.

  19. I love Poland and the Polish people. I’m so happy they get to enjoy the fruits of their labor. They have a great government with low rate of corruption. Russia was cheated out of their chance for freedom,wealth and a good standard of living by corrupt politicians and oligarchs who looted their country while the people were left to fend for themselves and they did okish until this war and now I fear it’s back to oppression and poverty for them except the ruling elites.

  20. You manage to communicate really interesting information using your own unique style. Keep up the great work Mark!

  21. I watched an old documentary about the Soviet Union from the 1980s, is exactly, things will only get better, and the future is bright for the USSR, I thought thinking in 6 years the Soviet Union wouldn't even around anymore, it had become history. Watching this propaganda documentary on YouTube shows how the Russian government lies. I think this subject should be taught I US schools, how to identify propaganda.

  22. Funny how those promoting Russia keep their money in USD (or other western currency) and not in roubles.
    138
  23. Love it that you say the ruble belongs on a pink sheet. So true. It is a cheap penny stock that will be bankrupt.
    138
  24. I find your comparison of the russian ruble and the confederate dollar to parallel historical events very interesting. Thank you.

  27. Putin: "I will pay for this war with blood... But it won't be mine."

  28. When I sailed into Vladivostok harbour with the Canadian Navy in the late 90’s, I had never seen such dirty waters. Probably not even India. Just terrible.
    136
  29. Government spending is soaring. Everything else is down.
    136
  30. I’ve worked in Russia in civil engineering and I completely agree with you, professor! In Russia, just like it used to be in the Soviet Union, you can not rely on local information. I would suggest to see on line presentations of professor Sergei Guriev ❤
    136
  31. Russian bots incoming... 😂 Great video, thanks for your support for Ukraine
    135
  32. "Potato water" is the best slang for vodka I've heard.

  33. Poland is awesome ! I live in Krakow 🐉 since 2 years and i just love it so much here ! From the bottom of my heart, Chwała Polsce 🇵🇱❤️
    135
  34. I so appreciate the simplistic explanation in layman's terms without the boring repetition of previous videos that so many others do.
    134
  35. Thanks, Mark, still waiting for "Swan Lake" - it will be here soon! Slava Ukraini!
    132
  36. russians have a tradition to prop up the ruble before major political events (like election) and letting it fall afterwards... Thank you Mark!👍❤
    132
  37. Russia's only two exports.. 1) Petroleum products.. 2) Misery..

  41. Indian Modi knows very well that russia uses oil money to finance it's imperial war. But the leader of this old wise country doesn't stop for moral grounds when he sees the profits... hank you Mark! 👍❤

  42. The background fits the Russian economy Clever idea
    129
  43. Hello Mark. I love your videos, and I also watch Inside Russia. Your videos and Konstantin's videos are the best. 👍

  44. The most interesting part was when Nabyulina said that they cannot increase the interest rate anymore, or it will kill the economy. So they are running out of options to deal with the inflation, which is materializing as the force that will bring down russia.
    128
  45. I want my children to have a choice. It doesn't matter what they choose.
    128

    124
  47. Back in 2008 when Russia started massively stockpiling gold I said "These guys gonna go to war" and they haven't stopped since.
    123
  48. I am with you Mark/C I am calling Russia's bluffs. Ukraine🇺🇦 will win. Russia 🇷🇺 will collapse. Love this video Mark, I learn so much from you, & the inspiration is incredible. Thank you.

  49. World peace has been resting on shoulders of USA for the last 80 years... Sadly so, it seems that era is coming to an end... Thank you Mark for the video!
