At one point Zimbabwe's money was worth one mol to the American dollar. Yes, the chemistry term.

I absolutely love that the symbol for the unit "mole" is one letter shorter.

Thanks guys, saves a lot of space for a unit that is hardly ever written down outside of equations that are mostly automated now.

Yes growth is relative, and so is contraction. Guess who loses even worse now?

Ah yes the paper tiger of western Europe economies... still the golden standard? Luckily for the Russians idiots continue to believe this so most of the parasitic foreigners will flood our borders in search of gibs.

Turns out that having enormous amounts of natural resources and actually exploiting them to build things isn't a bad way to run a country.

Russia is a second world country. It has room to grow.

Isn't that just every single country where most wealth is urbanized now?

I just saw your username so you're probably an anti Russian Finn? Carry on i guess.

To a certain extent, but the divide is significantly sharper in Russia and China than in the US.

Some of our rural towns have fiber optic internet connections.

Most of our rural towns are dying and have very low income per capita. Globalization/urbanization will continue everywhere.

Don't care.

For when you reply.

Still don't care.

I guess man. I'd be curious to know where you live because most small towns in the USA are drying up. Not a whole lot of people and not a whole lot of jobs. The jobs there are definitely higher paying than Russian small towns tho.

I think I hit a nerve. My comment was solely that as a Finn, and assuming you're here and are probably better educated with regards to history, you will have a lot of historical animosity towards Russians.

I think when put into comparison similar trends of more top heavy economic growth at the expense of the middle class are happening in the west to a great extent as well. Urban areas are strongholds of wealth and the upper class. I believe the old European middle classes are becoming poorer as inflation and poor socialist policies are inflicting a lot on you all. Couple with immigration and it'll get very bad. Same in the USA too
