I think what the actual issue is that the average Russian annual income is like 4x less than the average US income, so the prices aren’t gonna be the same regardless
This is true, but people really need to look at the maths on other stuff aside from food and it makes me hate my own country so much. Callum of the lotus eaters has his own channel where he visits Russia. Their gas among other things is cheap as fuck, you can do this sort of maths as well in European countries depending on where you go if it's not a silly overpriced tourist hotspot some of it was surprising for me.
I also hated how Poland seems to allegedly have this rule around car insurance purely being based around the value of the car, how quaint. Which means the car insurance companies can't jack up the prices to the ridiculous degrees I see in my own country.
