From Reuters: "Crisis forces Russians to cut back vodka drinking"
According to the article, not only are the Russians cutting back on their vodka purcheses but their also turning to other desperate methods to get their retardation on.
"At times like this, any grandmother can collect some old bottles, fill them with whatever she wants, and sell them to the alcoholics that are trying to save some money....Bootleggers quickly filled the vacuum with a low-grade black market brew, which was blamed for widespread liver failure, jaundice and toxic hepatitis that swamped the city's hospitals and its morgues....
Other drinkers went for anything with alcohol content, including cosmetics, perfumes and cleaning agents to bring about the same effects as vodka, whose name in Russian is the diminutive of the word for water."
