This video disproves all the weird rumors about him being at death's door. He seems perfectly coherent (granted, I do not speak Russian, but there wasn't any Biden-esque pauses or stumbling) and didn't make any weird movements.
He's right in a way, but I'm not sure he's right about where all the extra money went. IIRC, most of the printed money went into the markets, hence the dramatic collapses of the pandemic darlings. The likes of Carvana, Peloton, Zoom and even Meta and Netflix have all cratered, and they all went up hugely during 2020.
All the extra money went to the western oligarchs. Their collective net worth increased by one trillion dollars. That’s what happens when you inject a trillion dollars into economies that are structured to capture all of the money at the top.

You'd think big aid packages that keep all the printed money relevant have nothing to do with it.....
