Punitive sanctions don't work because they are applied inconsistently and encourage defiance and retaliation. If we really want to save and spread democracy, it is time for free countries implement a consistent, INCENTIVE BASED policy of massive taxes on ALL imports, with incremental discounts linked to democratic reforms in less free countries. Gains by a country must be perceived as earned, not as capitulation. (see Dale Carnegie) Free trade only with other free countries. This policy would cost consumers nothing if it was offset by domestic tax reductions, so there really is no excuse to not start immediately. Plus, the eventual savings in military spending and market disruptions due to conflict, would more than offset any temporary negative effects.
They are not sanctions.They are economic actions.
Thanks to the GOP we depend on gas and oil worst than other countries
Aawww they can not used their jatch… meanwhile we pay the price at the punp and the groseries store
Putin is Gonna Pinch the Hell out of Europe!!

why don't you give the same sanction to israel? why only Russia? Is HAM only for your alliance? You use double standards, peace for all
Hope it gets to $10.
The sanctions are all a farce.
Ever realized why the US did not sanction Russian oil and gas?
This will raise the prices of the oil / fuel prices in the US.
So which means for Russia there is no economic fall out.
The US will never sanction on goods and services that will affect its own citizens.
There are no sanctions!!!…this is a SPECIAL FINANCIAL OPERATION…🤣
Taking a Russian billionaire yatch is like having $1,000,000 and losing $300…..LMAO….what a joke….!!!
It won't affect us very much… we dont need their exports… alcohol or mail order brides.

Just think, the man who led the retreat from Afghanistan is leading this full assault against Russia. Hooray.I'm sure all the employees and stock holders of companies with US employees in Russia are holding their breath.
Please, don't let the real story get in the way of the press.
We, the westerners, pay for Putin's army in Ukraine cos we buy Russian oil and gas.
Thanks to Biden. For tiny GDP of Ukraine, fucking up whole country's economy
Sanctions? What sanctions? Do you mean the special finance operation to liberate russian economy? Just financial denazification of Putin's kleptocracy.

Why didn't mainstream media and ABC News ask the world to sanction the US, its allies, American and European oligarchs because of hundreds of thousands of civilian casualties in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and Yemen after the US invasions?
Go Russia. get those mf. Nazi west side of Ukraine was killing Russians during WW2, now its time to pay back
The western oligarchs (corporations) should be bring some of that money hidden in off shore accounts that they avoid paying taxes on back home. Should be easy to find. They are in the same banks where the Russian oligarchs stash their loot. I support NATO and Ukraine 100%
" NATO " meaning drama in Indian language …
Sanctions except giving them $66,000,000 a day 600,000 a barrel a day times $100 a barrel is 66 million USA dollars
A small price to pay for the freedom of the Ukraine 🇺🇦
I like how Ananamus came of off life support when there was not a word while the US citizens were under seige for two years
Some pipelines,fracking,and Donald Trump would be handy right now.Thanks Greta
The obesity rate might go down with higher gas prices. Take your ass for a walk. Try it.
You against attacking civillian.
But your SANCTION IS ACTUALLY IMPACT CIVILLIAN.
Actually, you the main culprit
30 cents in less than a week awake up
theres no reason why oil prices and gas should be going up! if it wasnt for the democrats and biden shutting down the keystone pipeline we would be oil independant!
Sanctions don't stop tanks though. How are you going to stop Russia's invasion?
USA is a poor country they people is not living life and now this gl usa
I can think of nothing more patriotic than being willing to pay more for gas to help defend a country being illegally and wrongfully attacked by a tyrant.
Why would he attack another country. The sanctions almost took half of russias economy not to mention if he ever did attack another country russia would be put into shambles. The only way russia would attack another country is if China got there back. China Mainly because there getting alot of money in Africa so maybe they plan on backing russia. This war really depends on china.

Holy cow, This is terrible They're taking His boat away from him.
description says that we've cut off russian oil suppliers which is a lie. we are still buying oil from them. the us is capable of being net neutral on oil but we refuse to do it because there is too much money to be made.
Bullshit. You know that was owned by Canadian company right? It never had an effect on Americans.
Checking in from California where we just gave our first born to the attendant for one gallon of gas .Still worth it to stop Russia!
THE GIRL IN PURPLE IS HOT LMFAO
LIKE PRETTY DRESS
SORRY I'M LATE
If Biden hadn’t shut down Keystone and stymied oil projects we wouldn’t be in this hole.
Energy independent to reliant on foreign oil in less than a year.
Well done 👏🏼
Why not ban everything about russia? let the russian economy cripple
stop using oil and gas ez clap
