So did you not read the war time economy line above, or but understand it?

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 months ago

When you definitely understand what a war time economy is.

Ok so no.

Obviously a country focused on military production can...produce militarily.

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 months ago

Military production accounts for like 6% of Russian GDP. Lives for vast majority of people living in Russia haven't been affected by the war in any way. Maybe read up a bit of history of WW2 to see what focusing a country on military production actually looks like.
