Tucker Carlson and Russian Groceries (more context)

I recently did a video on Tucker Carlson’s trip to a Russian grocery store and talked about some issues involving exchange rates and the purchasing power of the US Dollar. I discovered within the comment section of that video that some people needed a bit more clarity. I take responsibility for not being as clear as I could have  been; however, I also contend that this is what Tucker Carlson was preying upon: the gray area. Let’s just make sure things are as black and white as possible. Tucker is insinuating that Russia has some kind of upper hand when it comes to the economy and how their citizens appear to be better off. Is this true? Let’s consider this further data.
