Advantages/disadvantages for Russia to "Atlas Shrug" the world
Russia is a huge country geographically with vast natural resources. How would it fare if it, and perhaps a few neighboring allies played "Atlas Shrugged" and isolated themselves from the rest of the world? Would that stop a potential war from occurring or encourage one?glassesoff

Re: Advantages/disadvantages for Russia to "Atlas Shrug" the world
With their relatively small internal markets there would be plenty of resources to around and modest demands on workers. They could establish a communal resource policy to offset the downward pressure of losing access to external capital. Oh wait...
That’s the thing about progress; all the word means is “continued movement in the same direction.” If the direction was a bad idea to start with, or if it’s passed the point at which it still made sense, continuing to trudge blindly onward into the gathering dark may not be the best idea in the world. Break out of that mental straitjacket, and the range of possible futures broadens out immeasurably.

What is the benefit if Russia doesnt flood the world with missiles, tanks AKs and RPGs?
What do you have in your home made in Russia?
Russia cannot provide even for itself, thats why the invade everyone and drain them dry.

Besides surplus guns and ammo probably nothing.

They were far crueler to the Afghanistan then Americans are.

At least America built schools and hospitals where they invade and take oil from. Its not Americas fault those people blow themselves up and reject any sort of aid.

Re: Advantages/disadvantages for Russia to "Atlas Shrug" the world
President Putin, in calling for Russia to diversify it's industry to become more self reliant and less affected by any trade sanctions, is a form of bugout (altas shrugged) mentality. Will probably make Russia far stronger in the end. Current NATO trading partners will be permanently losing large market. Interesting result of current sanctions.
