No money, even to subsidize the production of bread?

It breaks my heart.

Ha, the Russian Federal Anti-monopoly "Service" are gonna lose their shit.

What will it be, empty shelves or higher inflation?

Roll on March

I don't think that's a problem. Let them eat cake.

(Honestly, she never said this, but she could have said something similar. That was the way the nobility was back then.)

Is bread part of the basket of goods that determines inflation? Will the FAS pay a visit?

They already did it once, but there’s no reason for them not to make repeat visits!

If the FAS is "convincing" Russian producers to sell at loss, then they'll just stop producing. The downside of that is that Russians don't have bread. The upside is that the bread they don't have reflects the official inflation numbers.

Any other Russian speakers out there finding it hard not to misread the label on the flour? (explanation - the Russian words for 'torment' and 'flour' are the same (мука) just stressed on different syllables.)
