    Dunno, maybe during the time of the Soviet Union, but I don't think there's enough profits to motivate the Russian capitalists to do anything beyond resource extraction

      Yeah, I was mostly thinking of resource extraction. As things heat up, I'm sure we'll see mining for profit being done further and further north. :doomer:

        I mean the cold doesn't really stop them if there's enough money to be made anyways but I think the trouble lies in how much infrastructure work needs to be done just to get the money-ball rolling.
