You don't need to say the things that are really true only the things that aren't.

Extremely high levels of inflation helps keep things on the store shelves, instead of in people's bellies.

they could not have put out a more insecure sounding statement

everything is perfectly fine, please do not look over here, there is no reason to look over here, why are you looking over here!?

That bad, huh? Good.

Traditionally the rulers in moscovia had seen speaking to the "people" as a disgusting necessity in times of crisis. And of course, there's nothing to brag about in times of crisis.

Thus the old soviet conclusion was that if a politician speaks, that's because things are bad. And since they will never admit a mistake, they will lie.

Thus this statement should be interpreted as "the food market is collapsing".
