The ruble 🐷 🇷🇺 is now at its lowest value in history . 87.5 rubles to USD today compared to 85 rubles to USD on Monday.

What you said is true....up to a point.

Unless fines for rules infractions are allowed. (And they are). Which is the loophole so big you can drive a truck through it.

And what soldier is going to go high enough up to admit to a crime (worth years in jail) to get back his equivalent of $10 or even $100.
Multiply this by a few hundred soldiers and....
You claim some form of intelligent reasoning....use it! Stop with the ridiculous claims already. I like someone with intelligent arguments....can't you do better?
Ok. Let's play the game. You are a Sergeant. There are, say, ten soldiers under your command. If you demand money (however small amount) from your soldiers - anyway who know about it (and at least ten men know about it) can blackmail you. Do you really want to risk it for the equivalent of $100 or $1000? What is worse - if you abuse your soldiers and show yourself as stupid, selfish and criminal non-leader - how will you lead them in battle? And if your Leuitenant or Captain knows that you are a "weakest link" and a "vulnerability" - he, at least out of the sense of self-preservation, will definitely get rid of you. Say nothing about practical question - the regular soldiers don't get cash, they get money on their cards, and all electronic transactions (especially in the zone of special military operation) are controlled by the bank, FSB, and whoever else. Any suspicious pattern - and they are starting asking questions.

If it only it worked that way with the controls....but it doesn't. And the numbers of enlisted regular soldiers to officers are nowhere near the numbers you describe.

Nice try....try again.

There is control. And it's quite effective.
Squad Leader (komandir otdeleniya) is a Sergeant, and BTR Squad is nine soldiers.
Tank crew commander (komandir tanka) is a Sergeant, too, so he has only two soldiers under his command.
Platoon Leader is a Leiutenant and tank platoon is three tanks. (BTR Platoon is three BTRs)
Starting from the level of company commanders have Political Deputies (Zampolits) who are officers and can command, but who's main concern are discipline and morale.
 
I'm not sure...
It depends on a LOT of factors.

I'd say this Fall but war economies work just fine until they collapse from cascade failure. The Russian economy can be just like a zombie...fully dead and gone but seeming to function fine.

Currently it's up to human error and greed as to how quick they fall...which can make the whole thing topple over like a house of cards.

I know , Musk is such a joker
got nice 1917-1991 🇷🇺💥💥feeling ;)
Russian post to massively cut jobs and services.... Rural communities will become more isolated..
