MONDAY IN MOSCOW, ST. PETERSBURG AND MIDDLE-CLASS RUSSIA

 UH OH. MONDAY, MONDAY 

THIS WEEK, RUSSIAN WORKING & MIDDLE-CLASS WAKES UP AND REALIZES:

1. Gosh. The Ruble buys pretty much nothing. My bank is closed. My  VISA card doesn’t work.
2. Gosh. The Russian Stock Market and Central Bank are pretty much shut down.
3. Gosh. Our good jobs at Amazon, McDonalds, DHL, and Coke are gone.
4. Gosh. Our stores and shop shelves are bare, except for shoddy Russian junk.
5. Gosh. A ratio of 1000 ARMED AND DEADLY PISSED Ukrainians to every Russian soldier is bad odds.
6. Gosh. What are all those body bags?
7. Gosh. The international news, tourists, Facebook, Twitter, —nothing works!
