No one in the west seems to have believed me and no one who believes, wants to admit it, but Russia while being hurt by sanctions, it is steadfast and not hungry. We (and that means this American,) is eating Russian made products and that is millions and millions of Russian made products and they are of exceptionally high quality. In fact I see exportation of Russian meats and other production in the food area. This is nothing short of incredible and shows me something about the abilities of the Russian people. The west has underestimated the Russian soul…
I have talked about the Russian Soul and I have talked about this ability that Russians have to connect to the earth and be resurgent. It comes from year after year of having to embrace a short growing season and getting the most out of that short time. Unless you are in tune with Mother Earth, you starve and die. Russians are in tune and live with a different mindset than literally anyone from the west…

What I see and have been watching is a whole world of Russian made agriculture products and they are damn fine quality and damn fine to simply eat and enjoy. There is everything Russian made / packaged and or created from the huge resource base that is literally endless, all located within Russian herself. You name it, I can buy it and we are far off the beaten trail here. If I desire beef jerky? I can buy it! If I desire yogurt? I have hundreds of flavors, styles and types to buy! If I desire Colby Jack cheese? I can buy it! To top it all off; Everything is dirt cheap compared to what the people in the west pay for things…

Seriously people; Russians have more free spending money due to the way society has set itself up, than people in the west have. You might make more, but your overhead is much higher and that $5 Big Mac is a bigger drain on your society than that $2 Big Mac in Russian society. I know all about it, I have lived in both worlds and know that the world I live in now, has much more free spending money…

Russians do not lose, Russian endure!
That is why you in the west are being ignorant! Sanctions are just another expectation of life, in a life full of sanctions and no one but no one suffers, but the ones imposing the sanctions. Therefore, tell the governments to stop the crap and make life better for all of us, including you…
Just like what I am going to do in the Spring, the Russians will double their gardens and grow enough food for the whole year, not just the whole winter…
Have a nice day…
