"The ruble hit a 17-month low against the dollar Monday, highlighting the growing squeeze on Russia’s economy from Western sanctions and a slump in export revenues. The Russian currency has lost nearly 40% of its value this year, weakening past 100 rubles to the dollar, as Moscow’s war in Ukraine takes a heavy toll."

The value of $100 in 1971 is equivalent to $752.13 in 2023, with an average annual inflation rate of 3.96%. The inflation rate in the United States between 1971 and today has been 652.13%, resulting in a total increase of $652.13. By calculating the value in 1971 dollars, $1 is worth less over 52 years, and over 50 years, based on the 653.36% change in prices.1 The value of $1.00 in 1971 is equal to $7.46 in 2023, with an annual inflation rate of 3.94%. The Bretton Woods system of fixed exchange rates established at the end of World War II marked the beginning of the end for this system.

Strong dollar hurts US exports and economy. Grabbing one headline and thinking it’s hurting Russia is
Very shallow. Don’t forget that the war was going to be over in two weeks, oops two months, oops. Russia a gas station without an economy. How unrealistic have our leaders have been and continue To be. Are we really going to fight Iran, in Niger, China, and support Ukraine at the same time. I truly imagine if you resided East Palestine, Ohio, & now Maui, where is the great mobilization, with
Equipment, money that flew to Ukraine in record time.
