Bloomberg notes people who want to trade with Russia, after their little Ukraine mistake, can no longer do so with Dollars or Euros because we kicked them off SWIFT.

So those still wanting to do business with Russia are trying out all sorts of alternatives. - North Korea is dealing with same sanctions for different reasons.

Trade with Russia and North Korea just doesn't interest me much.


This is just like the old Soviet days when China and Russia used barter to facilitate trade between the world's two largest shit economies.

Twenty years ago my extended family and I almost enjoyed a free tour of Russia courtesy of the Soviet state, but they collapsed before the event date.

That's the way it goes out on the fringes.
