Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin: U.S. Is A “Parasite” On The Global Economy

Russian PM Putin says we’re living beyond our means.

“They are living beyond their means and shifting a part of the weight of their problems to the world economy,” Putin told the pro-Kremlin youth group Nashi while touring its lakeside summer camp some five hours drive north of Moscow.

“They are living like parasites off the global economy and their monopoly of the dollar.”
