I stocked up on beets yesterday. I'm figuring Russia will stop exporting them and the price will go up.What's the difference between the dollar and the ruble? A dollar, the ruble is worth less than a cent, forget imported goods for regular folks.
Many in Russia will take up subsistence farming, the rural villages will be full again as people seek to survive. The economic damage has been done and with economic inertia, it will take a long time to get back to square one, even if it ends in a month. Uncle Joe is making mother Russia howl until she shits out mad Vlad.I stocked up on beets yesterday. I'm figuring Russia will stop exporting them and the price will go up.
Here is a good recipe for them:

i'll bet almost all of them would be eager to recall the troops and start negotiations for easing the sanctions that are strangling russia....I disagree about the bullet. Putin is typical of his class. You’d need a lot of bullets to deal with the long line of applicants to the post of chief kleptocrat that would quickly appear.
Her book is enlightening. It is really an expose of the education system and opportunity.
Members of this small circle are who Putin “probably does have to worry about” if “it looks like Russia is losing,” said Hill, an intelligence analyst under former President George W. Bush and Barack Obama who later served on the National Security Council under Donald Trump. Hill was an important witness during Trump’s first impeachment.Russia Expert Fiona Hill Reveals How It Could All Go South For Putin
There's one unsung group the Russian president "probably has to worry about," the former National Security Council analyst said.www.huffpost.com
“I don’t think they care about the world of public opinion,” Hill added. “But if there’s not any movement on the ground, if that great convoy of tanks just basically runs out of gas and is just left there, and if they have to kind of lay waste to Ukraine to basically get a success … you might then start to get a backlash from those people who are thinking this has not gone as they intended.”
After seeing the quality of the Russian army, NATO can afford to give the some of their war stock piles to the Ukrainians, the Russian conventional forces are no longer seen as a threat to NATO. That means they won't have to wait long for hardware, the factories are humming with replacements now, the system is set up to rapidly make these things in case of war, a cold war legacy. If NATO ever fought Russia in a conventional land war, it would be over pretty quick and probably would be won with psychological warfare and mass surrenders of conscripts.
- Russia and Ukraine on Thursday agreed on the need to set up humanitarian corridors to evacuate civilians trying to flee the conflict, in their first sign of progress on any issue since the invasion. On the frontlines, Russian forces increased pressure on Mariupol and Kharkiv after Kherson became the first Ukrainian city to fall. Follow our live blog for the latest developments.

Czechs allowed to fight for Ukraine
The Czech Republic's leaders agreed on Thursday that Czechs who will leave for Ukraine and help defend it against the Russian invasion will not face punishment.
"We can guarantee indemnity through a presidential reprieve," Prime Minister Petr Fiala told reporters after meeting President Milos Zeman.
The law prevents Czechs from serving in an army other than their country's, slapping a prison sentence of up to five years on offenders.
If they want to fight abroad, they must ask the president for an exception.
The presidential office has so far registered about 300 requests for the exception, while 100 people have applied with the defence ministry.As it happened: Russia, Ukraine agree on need for humanitarian corridors to evacuate civilians

tactical implies short ranged, which is of deep concern to the Ukraine and the EU...we personally have to be a lot more concerned with his strategic arsenal...The mad midget will use tactical nukes if cornered, I believe that now, we better hope for his removal or death at the hands of his own people.
