Can anyone explain to me why they pay less for everything than we do? And what’s with the octane levels on their gas? 

Oh that’s right, they are energy independent. 

Thank you Liberals, YOU SUCK!!

This is insane.

Prices in Russia are lower for most things. Their economy is not as developed as ours.
Yet even after you adjust for these things, you still find that their median income is less than half of what ours is.

Oh boy, now you dun it.
I've watched that couple's videos for a long time. Always interesting. But having visited Russia, most of the cities there are nowhere near as nice as those in the U.S. Heck, in St Petersburg all of the people live in apartments, not single family homes.
From what I am reading and seeing, the Ruble has crashed to where it is worth half of what it was worth before this war started. That means anything that is imported now costs double (if you're using rubles) what it cost a month ago.

Yea? Same thing with the United States versus China.

We look like fermented garbage compared to China.

Seriously.. our cities are disgusting compared to them. And their roads and bridges? A million times better.
Wow .... I wonder why people in Ethiopia pay less than we do here in the US. I know they only make $160 USD per year but it just doesn't seem fair they pay less for everything than we do.
