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.

Just say it, Russia is a banana republic that snows and has 5 thousand nukes.

You can grow your economy through demographics or productivity, and the best economic growth is productivity growth, not demographics.
45
Do you see the Northern Caucus Republics will declare independence from Russia, and what about Tatarstan, Barshkortostan and Tuva? I see Republics in Russia wanting to separate from Russia.
41
After the war, Ukraine needs a Marshall Plan, but the good news is that the US could share the burden of this new Marshall plan with NATO allies countries.
40
Crimea, Donbas, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhya should be withdrawn first, Russia should pay reparation to Ukraine and Ukraine should join the NATO alliance so this never happens again, that is a fair deal for Ukraine. The rest is unfair.
33
Is the same thing Venezuela is going through, resource curse.

Juan Domingo Peron closed Argentina’s economy, he created a government institution called IAPI Argentine institute for the promotion of Trade, that pretty much closed off Argentina to trade and crippled the economy.
32
Probably this collapse will be worse than the fall of the Soviet Union.
22
There are quality of life index called HDI, human development index.
20
There was hope that in the 1990s, after the USSR collapsed, Russia would be more liberal and democratic and less despotic and violent, unfortunately, it didn't happen.

They should auction the oligarch yacht, in San Diego harbor, there is a huge Russian Oligarch yacht and the US government has to the maintenance, I thought just auction and give money to Ukraine.
17
One thing I found dumb is that MAGA is they love classical liberalism and hates neoliberalism, and an economics professor said the difference between neoliberalism is that they use math and graphs to prove classical liberalism theory. Also, Classical liberalism is pro-free trade while MAGA is very anti-free trade, MAGA is not liberal nor conservative.

Russian Bread, Tucker Carlson likes it, give him non-nutritional Russian to him.
16
Just studied the History of Argentina. When Argentina allowed free trade and had a constitution model after the US, that 100 years ago, now the US is doing exactly what dictator Juan Peron did 100 years ago and what caused the decline of that country.
13
Dolar is the world's reserve currency.
12
Biden should step down give the presidency to Kamala Harris.
11
Yeah buy only the essentials, not consuming anything is impossible, but you can buy groceries and the essentials.

@taniadavenport2939 no Russia

In Brazil, the police officer says can you buy me a beer, and you have to give a bribe. There is an art of doing it.
9
Can you talk about what is going on in Syria and if that has something to too with the weakening of Russia?
9
I bet that Chechnya will break away.
8
Not in my lifetime, for me the US will start declining when it becomes an oligarchical dictatorship. I don't think it will happen, but there are people who I shout name who want an Orban or Putin-style government in America. It will be hard for America to become that.
8
It is 107 now, the ruble is melting.
8
Can you talk about this dumb trade war? You are an economist.
7
Trump is a clown, I just wish Trump wasn't in the whitehouse and lost.
7
I saw a video from Paul Warberg's channel, he said that Russia's economy will collapse.
7
Russia is underperforming and Ukraine is punching above its weight, a Brazilian said that "Putin is the Pelé of Geopolitics" then my response was "Yeah, that's why Russia is underperforming and by now I would have thought that he would have occupied all of Ukraine, and Moldovia and annex it into Russia by now three years ago when this war started" and he became pissed at me.
7
There are Russian going to Argentina and Brazil that how bad it got there.
7
I will quote Ronald Reagan, Trust Ukraine, but verify, I am not against send auditor from the pentagon to Kyiv to see everything is ok
6
Will people leave Russia, imagine the migrant crisis.
6
Brazil too, they are nice people but generally, not all Brazilian some are even fighting in Ukraine's side, especially people from my state, Paraná received a lot of immigrants from Ukraine in the past, Russia and Poland too. But generally Brazilian supports Russia, even though they are nice people.
6
India is not a US friend is a US ally, there is a difference US friend: the UK under Churchill and the US ally Soviet Union under Stalin during world war two. I do see India US relations souring.
5
In Russia, you are an oligarch, a politician, or a Siloviki son and you are set for life, or you are nothing. I agree, vote with your foot if you are Russian.

Freedom is justice too. And you can't have justice without freedom. Slavi Ukraini

For some reason, MAGA likes Russia, and I feel they want that model of corrupt oligarchical kleptocracy in America, I am shocked that Trump won. I got tired of MAGA saying how Trad and Based Russia is and the US has to copy it. Why because Russia hates homosexuals? Is just so dumb, they can go first after homosexuals, minorities, and immigrants but after you, they will go after you MAGA m0r0ns.

Were the Communists able to eradicate Islam in Chechnya or the other parts of the empire?

I was a dude showing a mall in Russia, and most stores went bankrupt. I even see videos of Russians immigrating to Brazil, signs that things are starting to get bad there.
4
Well done. BRICS is over. I think if China collapses is over.
4
As I said, Ukraine is winning but is not over yet, unfortunately. As I said Russia will collapse in the spring of 2026 or maybe the summer of 2026. I heard if this war is not over by December 2025 and Russia does not win, it is over for Russia.
4
People will come from Central America, South America, and Cuba. But I do see illegal immigrants decreasing due to demographics too, many latin american countries have low sub-replacement birth rates.
4
I agree.
4
Will the Chechen try independence again? They mite.
4
The tow biggest losers Iran and Russia, both lost.

I understand why russian just drink potato water.

MAGA is the most anti-American movement, destroying America from within.

@EconLessons I heard Russians are going to Georgia, Kazakhstan, and South America (Argentina and Brazil).

Asbestos in Russian apartments? I don't doubt they have that too.
3
I agree.

In the United States the answer is simple, no. In Russia, yes. I think the Russian ruble is collapsing. The US has 100% of debt in US currency which is the world's reserve currency. Now hyperinflation is usually cause if your central bank cannot stabilize currency and has no reserve, Russia, or if you have too much debt in a different currency that you do not print (Argentina). The US doesn't have these problem.
