So, show me I'm wrong.
Till then "the empty vessel makes the loudest noise". (that's describes you in case you had no idea what it meant)

Stunningly Low Prices – A Visit to an Average Russian Supermarket
August 17, 2023 |
I wouldn’t normally write a post like this, but WE ARE NOT going to find this level of ground reporting anywhere in U.S. media. As you might be aware, I have been doing extensive research on the Russian economy specifically with the outcome of western sanctions.
In is video a Youtuber I follow visited a local supermarket, similar to a WalMart Super Center to share information for his USA followers.
Dima Dear, a remarkably nice young man, lives in St Petersburg, Russia (formerly Leningrad), and he shares various experiences with his audience at their request. There is a lot of U.S interest as people following his story are starting to realize life in Russia is not what western media portray.
If you are familiar with USA grocery prices, what Dima shares in this ground report is stunning from a U.S. perspective. If you watch this livestream, keep in mind that 100 rubles equals $1.00. 350 rubles is $3.50. Additionally for weighted products 1kg equals 2.2 lbs. So generally speaking, if something is 100 rubles/kg it is $1 for two pounds.
Example from the video:
•Lean ground beef at 329 rubles/kg is less than $1.65/lb.
•Bacon at 250 rubles/kg is less than $1.25/lb.
•20 eggs are 139 rubles or $1.39.
•Boneless skinless chicken breast $4 for 4lbs.
•Typical Bagged salad mixes .79¢ each. etc.
The wild part is that in Russia they are getting worried these prices are too high.
The average rent for a nicely furnished 2-bedroom modern apartment in St Pete Russia is around $500/month. Something akin to downtown Manhattan. Including rent, utilities, food, transportation, personal items and purchases, a Russian citizen can live very comfortably, remarkably comfortably, on an income of around $1,200 to $1,500/month. In downtown St Pete which is considered a more expensive place to live.
Put that into a USA middle-class perspective and evaluate the impact of western sanctions against the average Russian cost of living.

Nobody buys Russian shit.
Well, unless it’s alcohol, salty fish eggs or sad novels.
Russian cars? Trash.
Russian guns? Not anymore.
Russian military hardware? HUGE LOL.
Russian fashion? It’s French. Nobody loves the French more than the Russians.
There are McDonald’s all over Moscow — among others.
Let me know when Putinski’s Borscht Stand opens up a franchise in DC.
Russian grocery stores are sad. They’re like a going to dollar store in the most fucked up, desolate town in Mississippi but without the honor of being in America.

Half the dimwits here buy Russian shit and post it here on an almost daily basis. Russian tubes are decent though so I'd buy those.
