One of the consequences of the invasion of Ukraine by the Russians has been a disruption to the oil supply and increased prices. It adds to inflation and hits our pocketbooks but it's nothing like the disaster hitting the Ukrainian people and the Russian soldiers sent on the invasion.
I imagine Putin expected a quick victory, followed by installing a friendly regime and a celebration about how he pushed NATO off his doorstep. That's not what he got.
The Ukrainian people are showing the world their desire to be free and democratic. Whatever happens going forward they deserve a lot of credit.
We Americans will continue to complain about gas prices. We could also use more fuel-efficient vehicles but that would apparently be too much of an imposition.
