I'm certainly not disbelieving the story. I don't know when this happened but yesterday was very hot I had to have the Air conditioning on unless it was written earlier this year -

Russian Duma mulling reintroducing the infamous USSR Food Stamps to alleviate poverty
Is Russia facing an economic crisis? The global economy is falling apart, and no one can tell where the global crisis will hit hardest. It could be Russia. Time will tell. But there have been umpteen stories over the past couple of years of how Russia was about to fall apart, etc., etc. So for now I prefer to wait and see. Exchange rates are relevant when it comes to purchase of foreign produced goods, or to locally produced goods heavily dependent upon foreign inputs. Such as gas or oil. German and other E.U. consumers will be able to tell you something about that. Russia is largely self-sufficient in its most vital needs. And many of its requirements for sophisticated manufactured goods can be met by China. China needs much of what Russia can supply: energy, minerals, and agricultural produce. So they are mutually self-supporting in trade. Unemployment in Russia is extremely low, and demand for labour is such that wages are rising faster than inflation. In fact wage rises are fuelling inflation - the opposite of what is happening in, say, the U.K. There are sectors of the Russian population that suffer from inflation. Such as pensioners. Their pensions are linked to inflation. But this is the overall inflation rate whereas the individual person experiences a higher rise in his cost-of-living than that. [U.K. annual pension increases long ago ceased to be linked to the government's bogus inflation figures, but instead to the lesser figure for the average increase in wages]. Russia distorts its statistics? To my knowledge Britain, France, the U.S. do the same. And I'm sure there are other countries besides. GDP was supposed to, and once did, express a country's industrial production. The U.K. now includes figures (presumably 'guesstimates') for the earnings of crime and prostitution. Maybe these two industries should be developed further? Finally, I would suggest that a country that can afford to fight poverty is not on its beam ends. -

Same can be said for anything Israel states, or MSM that supports Israel. Those 2 cultures deserve each other, and if they nuked each other, the world would be a better place -

BYD Seal tips, tricks and help
I don't have connectivity issues since my SIM was swapped - the only, probably unrelated, issue I occasionally encounter is a very slow response to voice commands shortly after start-up, almost as if the CCP supervisor is sleeping at his desk..........but who knows?
