questions about Ukraine/Russia

As one who asks and encourages the asking of good questions, it’s fascinating the plethora of questions we all have about Ukraine… what’s going on… how far will this go… what will happen to the Ukrainian people… how much more will this inflate prices here… and how should we wisely, unitedly respond.

So many questions — 50 to be exact — from ABC, CBS, NBC and more… from Bloomberg, Harvard, and FiveThirtyEight. Watch out for the overly slanted accounts… none intentionally included here…
