It would be like if there was law passed that all $20 dollar bills were no longer worth $20, but zero. The value of the $20 would be zero simply because it is no longer able to be traded with and isnt legal tender. That only works with money though, because you cant set the value of a real good to zero arbitrarily. Fuel for instance has a lot of intrinsic value, and it cant be arbitrarily devalued.

Additionally, the world is starved for fuel right now. We are heading into winter and its going to get worse, as we are already at $5.00 a gallon. Can you believe that? $5.00 fucking dollars. Russia is going to be just fine because they decided to keep producing oil to send to the EU all these years, while the EU castrated itself into become energy dependent on russia, just so they could look good to their oil hating constituents.. BTW it took germany almost a full year to get off russian oil.

Here's one topic we haven't beaten to death yet

New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham has suspended the 2nd Amendment across Albuquerque and the surrounding Bernalillo County for at least 30 days. Claiming that the constitution is not "absolute"

She has thrown out the constitution under the guise of "a public health emergency"

Now where have we heard that before?

Attachment 23014
The same devaluation has happened with the Turkish Lira, Swedish Krona, canadian dollar, Chinese Yuan, Indian Rupie, Indonesian Rupiah, Israeli Sheckel and Japanese Yen. Would you somehow say that the sanctions on Russia are causing all of the beforementioned countries to lose value in their currencies value as well?

What I am saying is that if Russia is selling oil to China and India, and China and India are selling goods to us, it doesnt fucking matter what their currency is doing because they are bringing in money nonetheless.

If you really want to know how the russian economy is doing, look at the cost of fuel, and then compare that with russian exports of oil. That is the only metric worth its weight.

Literally any public health emergency involves some amount of throwing out that dumb old document

This is pathetic. Hopefully she gets impeached. I highly doubt that she will ask her security to disarm themselves though.

Don't fall for it

The idea that a governor can oppress localities in their state is right though. My hometown had a mob scandal in the 70s that meant we didn't have self rule for many years.
