the problem with that is if you go all in from the get go on economic sanctions, you have nowhere to go to if russia behaves even worse

the way to use economic sanctions is to gradually accumulate them if russia stays shitty, gradually roll them back if russia acts better, and clamp them down tighter if russia acts even worse

it's not like firing a gun or setting off a bomb, there's huge inertia involved and you push and pull, harder or softer
