Russians Advised to “Bring Their Money Home”

01 money 01

On Thursday, S I Neverov, Deputy Chairman of the RF Gosduma, advised Russians to bring their money and assets back home from Western banks and offshore jurisdictions, telling Rossiya-24 TV, “Today, we must tell everyone trying to keep something there [in Western banks] to bring it back to their own country. The experience of Cyprus and Greece showed how much trouble one could experience if one kept money in the West and didn’t think that there was anything to worry about it. The West will try to increase pressure on Russia using sanctions, and Russian citizens should respond by bringing their money back home and investing it in the domestic economy. I think that there’d be attempts to step up the pressure. It’s a question of reaction from Russia. We could have a real influx of Russian capital that’s outside the country now. That’d be a very serious response”.

The West has forgotten the Law of Unintended Consequence. That is, Russia has the time to salvage most of its Western assets… and take them home, away from the grasp of Anglo American crapitalist pigs. This will strengthen V V Putin’s resolve to see to it that the succession goes to an anti-American figure. America lost this fight back in ’08… South Ossetia WAS “a bridge too far”, but Anglo Americans are dirt-dumb ignorant… “Winning is the only thing”. They focus on that so intently that they don’t realise that it leads to the exact opposite. Then again, we’re talking about ignoranuses who take Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, Wet Willy Romney, and Ted Cruz seriously… they bow before the Almighty Dollar and Might Makes Right. Sad to say, there are Orthodox clergy who actually recommend these evil godless individuals (and their anthropocentric theomachistic ideology) to their flocks… I’d remind them that the Cause of Christ isn’t compatible with the Me First Nihilism pushed by the four individuals that I named (and those like them). We live in perilous times… have a care…
