What economy? The gross domestic product of Russia has declined each year since 1989, apart from the death-kick increase of 0.8 percent in 1997. Inflation rages like a Malibu hill fire between 18 and 30 percent. Russia owes over $160 billion in debt. Most banks have been insolvent since August 1998. Do you want me to keep going on?
