    Why only Russian Assets? There are probably a few $Trillion assets in tax-shelters within America’s own borders. Charities, Churches and Foundations, and that’s before you even get to shell companies and holding companies.

    More then enough money to pay for literally anything, including paying down the federal deficit if you don’t understand monetary policy and you feel like that is important for some reason.

      Because you can’t do self-harm. The state would never allow for its own hand to be cut off. Russian assets are from a whole different pool of capitalists.
