Dimitri Cirrohski here, and many of his fellow patriots, are racing to ramp up black market vodka production to save Russia from agony and despair.
An instantaneous 36% government-dictated price increase on the national staple is going to make some waves. Vodka is sacred in Russia. More important than... well, just about anything really.
A tax hike this big is sure to be almost as effective as a Prohibition for stimulating unregulated entrepreneurial inclinations. A glorious new chapter in Russian history is about to unfold! Just think, modern day RPG-tottin Al Capones reinvigorating the collective adrenal gland. And the news media can rub their hands in anticipation for attempted political assassinations.
Exciting Times! Za vas!
