It's bizarre that Jews, a cast who survived the ages by faith and tribalism, decided one day to invent the most atheistic and brutally inclusive ideology the world has ever seen.
That ruble chart reminded me how someone here said that the Ukraine GDB was actually higher just before the Maidan than at any tie after it. I was shocked. Every Ukrainian I know told me life a shit under Russian influence, then afterwards it was hard too, but kept getting better and better.
Then I asked an economist about that, he laughed and explained to me things I hardly understood about a currency's value inside of its country and what you can do with it outside of the country, the latter of which the rubble cannot do much anymore, or so I hear.
