  1. ​ @howardjohnson9239  if the Yen was trading 90 for a USD and jumped to 155 that would be a massive crisis. The ruble was what, 66-70 before the war?

  2. ​ @AugustusOmega  Why would anyone want Rubles? Currencies are pitted against each other. If the dollar was harder to earn you'd see that reflected in trade value. All currencies take the same to earn for an equivalent value.

  3. North Korea also has a huge pyramid hotel in Pyongyang. Moscow is the center of the empire, they splurge like mad while the periphery suffers. Am I supposed to be impressed by Arab-style spending habits?

  5. Do they have the finances to do that? If I'm shipwrecked the last thing I want to do is grab an anchor.

  6. It's not kicked down the road. The debt going to zero would require the private sector to have its assets stripped. Clinton's balanced budget? It dented the economy.

  7. People can postpone the purchase of a car. Groceries are immediate. So the question becomes, how long until issues like transportation make a lack of vehicle purchases (or purchase of lower quality vehicles) create a dent in other sectors of the economy.

  9. India and China offshoring to Russia just means wages are low enough that they're in the same position China used to be decades ago.

  10. Japan and Germany were wrecked by WWII. Ukraine hasn't suffered a tenth of the damage those countries went through.

  11. Why are you shilling for Russia. I click on your profile and I see you shilling for Russia's low debt to GDP. Russia isn't trusted to pay back their loans. Simple as.
