Quit your damn wining would ya. People like you just don't get it. It's not a matter of effectiveness or not, so quit going there. It is time to stop doing business with Putin, like anyone should stop doing business with any criminal, full stop.
But I get ya. You want to do business with criminals. You want to do business with murderers. You want the world economy to be based on business with gangs, drug lords, mafias, undemocratic countries, killers, scam artists, and the rest. You don't think anything about working and dealing with criminals, murderers, and suppressive governments, and letting them have their way with anything they want to do. Continue taking over and destroying any country they want, including holding power over the US and the rest of the world.
People like you see nothing wrong with the way Putin mutilates, starves, destroys, murders millions of people and their environment. So what if he doesn't stop, so what if Russia and China control that economy you're so in love with. Deals with the devil is just fine as long as they spoon feed the selfish needs, and there is no sacrificing on the rest of the worlds part that should be done, it's all ok. Don't dare stop the dependence on blood money feeding us. Yea, I get you, crying the blues that jail sentences, laws, sanctions just don't work to change criminal behaviors, so we should just ignore and support the Putin regime and keep things the way they are. Continue feeding ourselves their wheat, making blood $ on the destruction and suffering, and continue our demise.
Well it isn't ok, it isn't smart, it isn't moral, it isn't the way business should be done, and it's just not right. Doing business the way your wanting has got us into this mess. So you need to suck it up, or just go live in Russia or China and support their evil ways and eat their food, spend the rubles, and enjoy everything that system has to offer.
Me, I rather starve. But I know we won't, just need to tuck in the belt a little more, stop the wastefulness, stop the dealing with the devils, stop feeding ourselves with blood money and death, tone down the greed a bit, change the way Russia and China and their backers (including the ones here) are destroying democracies and getting power over the world, and change the whole geo-economic system.
Need to just separate the two different ways of business, since nothing works to change them, why continue with the charade.
Yes, there will be great sacrifices that will have to be made. The costs will be greater if we don't sacrifice now. If we continue to separate from all that business and dependence with criminals we'll see which society lives a better life and eats better in the long run.
Like I said, you can always choose which side you rather live with. And I'm sure your going to continue crying and plastering the crap that sanctions aren't working and your blood $ is disappearing from your pocket, and your steak is getting a bit smaller. Oh, the suffering, the tragedies we must endure.
