The Russian government has an obligation to deal with any and all disabilities their soldiers may encounter. This includes lung issues, gill issues, ghoul conversion and rehabilitation, Deep One/Innsmouth taint, excessive Shub-Niggurath worship and ingrown toenails*

*ingrown toenails not covered if they are due to any of the before mentioned issues, sometimes the old has to be rejected for the new

>>63902412
>printing money nonstop
I don't think they're quite at that point yet. The national fund they've been emptying to keep things normal (despite their voluntary state of existential war with evil HATO Atlanticists) is down to maybe 25% now, though.
It'll probably be empty next year, at which point they will be facing a number of interesting fiscal decisions since their economy isn't growing and nobody wants to lend them money.

The RuAF really does just feel like a more cynical version of the IJA at times

The government actively mocks them to their faces, and yet still the broken cattle-like Russian people kneel and scrape

Putin would gladly sacrifice all their lives if it kept him going just a little longer.

>>63902565
The IJA might have had some actual fighting spirit. I'm kind of getting the feeling that a good chunk of the Russian Armed Forces is willing to fight mostly because of fear and desperation.

>>63902645
It wouldn't really matter if they actually had any fighting spirit if all their boats are on the bottom of the sea.

They still are and it still is, by their own typical measurement of success: dead Russians. Consider their idolatry of Lenin, Stalin, Dzerzhinsky, etc - whoever managed to kill as many of them as possible.

Ziggers are indeed fearsome fighters because they employ that unpredictable, drunken (krokodil-fiend, AIDS-ridden) master style. You'd think you wouldn't have to worry about the clearly mined field in which scraps of them already lay, the toxic pipe no sane man would dare go through, let alone return from, or even that abhorrently failed ideology that already got so many of them killed and by all accounts drained the gene pool, when that's precisely what they'll zerg rush next again and again.

yeah, gulag wasnt so bad. when my great-grandfather was sent to a gulag after his neighbor reported him for telling a stalin joke he spent a lot of years there until he had a heart attack. at which point they were nice enough to just let him leave out the front door with no money or way to get home so he walked all the way back home to belarus.

>>63902638
>by all accounts it should be empty for quite some time now
They've been running a budget deficit like 4x that of last year for a few months now. They may be stretching out the remaining liquid assets by instead forcing their state-owned or state-adjacent banks & other corporations to lend them money.
The banks and their customers are likely expendable, like the pidors in the pipe.

>>63903276
one week ago:

>Russia's wartime economic momentum is fading fast, with key resources nearly exhausted, Russian Central Bank Governor Elvira Nabiullina said, warning that the country can no longer rely on the same tools that sustained growth in the first two years of the full-scale war against Ukraine, the Moscow Times reported on June 19.

>Speaking at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Nabiullina said that the Russian economy had been expanding on the back of "free resources," including labor, industrial capacity, bank capital reserves, and liquid assets from the National Wealth Fund (NWF) — all of which are now reportedly nearing depletion.

>"We grew for two years at a fairly high pace because free resources were activated," she said. "We need to understand that many of those resources have truly been exhausted."

>>63903347
Sounds to me like Nabiullina needs to stay away from glass windows and sharp&pointy things, unless she wants to have an unfortunate accident

>>63902382 (OP)
>>63902384
>THEY DO IT FOR FUCKING FREE

>>63903347
>all of which are now reportedly nearing depletion
Huh, last I heard they had maybe $50B of assets left in there. Either those are something they can't spend because of the sanctions, or they don't want to because they're related to projects/infrastructure they'd like to keep their hands on, or they already spent them.
Probably wasn't enough for this year's deficit anyway. How sustainable is it to run a 10-15% budget deficit with basically zero economic growth and interest rates starting from 20% ?

>>63903362
If they get rid of her, people might take it as a sign that the economy is going to crash. The banks wouldn't like that.

from the same speech:
>Unemployment in Russia has dropped to a historic low of 2.3%, while mass emigration and the mobilisation of men for the war have created a labour shortage estimated at two million people.

>Capacity utilisation at Russian enterprises has exceeded 80%, the highest level in modern Russian history.

>Liquid assets in the NWF have shrunk threefold since the start of the war, falling to RUB 2.8 trillion (approx. US$35 billion).

>The fund’s currency reserves have declined to CNY 153.7 billion (approx. US$21 billion), the lowest since the fund’s creation in 2008, and its gold reserves have dropped to 139.5 tonnes from over 400 tonnes before the full-scale invasion.

>Corporate profits in Russia fell by one-third in March and by half in the oil and gas sector. Industrial growth slowed to a near standstill with only 1.2% growth from January to April, and civilian sectors have started to decline.

That's a good thing though

>>63902842

>>63903891
Anon... Extremely low unemployment means that when a new place opens, there is nobody to work in it. The country is literally at max capacity, and cannot grow beyond what it's currently producing.

>>63902506
Anal rape, most assuredly.

>>63903891
Ideal unemployment is between 4 and 5 percent, really. Too low and the market stagnates because there's not enough work force to encourage growth. Too high and there's not enough money to spend. You don't want it to be zero

>>63903901
It also means that you're so desperate for bodies you'll have wildly unqualified people filling positions all the way up your organisational chart. It becomes nearly impossible to sack people who are actively a detriment through their incompetence because there's no way to replace them.

>>63902633
Everything they do is pushed as a grand thing.

>>63903913
Ah, that too, yes. Better get ready to hire that street sweeper for the gas pipeline welder position.

>>63903913
I don't think that is going to have much of an effect on Russia of all places

>>63903901
>when a new place opens, there is nobody to work in it
They're not going to open many new places with 20-30% interest anyway.

>>63903925
And with 40% GDP to arms industry (yes, really). But that industry also needs more bodies and I don't mean the meat grinder, right now they are at donkey supply lines. Those sneaky Armatas seem to be behind enemy lines.

>>63903891
Not quite, because when you have a shortage of workers, state owned companies fight over them to fulfill their mandated quotas, with deleterious effects since they pull their funds from the state directly or through loans from banks the state has coerced to pay ever increasing salaries for an ever dwindling pool of able-bodied workers. It's a ticking time bomb.

>>63903347

Running the economy isn't something Putin can just hand off to any retard whose sole positive quality is loyal incompetence. He needs someone who can actually do the job and keep his shit show running as long as possible. Even if she were grossly incompetent, that hasn't been a defenestration hazard for a while now. Russia's hit the point of autocratic decay where you're only really safe if you're clinically retarded.

Yeah that guy is dead.
I remember a few months back when we had the huge multipart threads on nuclear accidents in Russia, the incident with the Cechens dying in 30 minutes flat after putting those things inside their jackets.
Even with those infamous DROP AND RUN sources if you picked one up, and let's say your eyesight isn't so great so you hold it up to squint and read the text, by the time you've got to DROP AND you've absorbed enough radiation in your arm to lose it through the eventual necrosis.

>>63902641
The line I've been hearing is that the Russian army has the Ukrainian's right where they want them- in the field being attracted away. They'll never surrender, there's no amount of territory that will make the average Ukrainian decide they want to be Russian, so just grinding them down to nothing IS the goal.

Seems pretty cope to me; even against literal og Nazis, slamming your face into your opponent's line was considered inefficient and only desirable in so far as you needed to break through.

>>63902709
The average US mobik would do the same. You tell them gas pipe will be empty, won't have gas, unlikely they'd pause and go "well hey what about leftover fumes in pipe?" If they do, Sergeant says to shut the fuck up.
Outlier is having anyone in squad with gas/industrial experience prior.

>>63903362
She's competent, obedient, and no threat to the boss- Putin isn't afraid of some woman replacing him. She's unlikely to be underbussed.

Didn't this guy seethe so hard at the scientists who proved him wrong that he had the NKVD disappear (and probably torture-murder) them? Not sure if the application of math to large-scale biology ever recovered in the Soviet Union.
Stalin seemed to like how efficiently he had the farmers organized to execute his ideas. Probably killed millions when the crops failed, but anyways. Forcing the peasants to do great things is what the great Soviet Union was all about.

Said ideas later spread to the China and may have played a part in tens of millions of Chinese dying in famines, so they did accomplish something I suppose.

>>63907852
I wouldn't be surprised large part of Russians want to end it too. But it's a little different for them. A lot of the soviet bullshit is integrated into their identity. E.g. it's easy for me to say fuck Communist party and Lenins corpse, because it's an oppressor in another foreign city. For Russian in many cases it would be equivalent to saying fuck my country, leaders and heritage. And they have no freedom to untangle this soviet mess as long as old nomenclatura farts are still alive and hell-bent on maintaining it.

>>63903784
It's not really a mystery. It's standard ponzi-like overheated wartime economy measures. Forcing bankers at gunpoint to give you bad loans and keep interest rates artificially low. Expanding veterans benefits while having no plan to ever follow through on those promises later on. Importing labor from third world countries. Selling futures in assets that will never exist. This will all come crashing down at some point, most likely immediately after a peace deal is signed, which is a major part of why they're so resistant to even a 30 day ceasefire.
