the pendulum is much more common in politics than the guillotine.

a cheerleader for La Peluca! She is pretty non-specific about his 'success", for good reason. Its true, Vaca Muerta is pumping more oil than Argentina has ever before. With fewer employees than ever. thats the main contributor to his economic boom. And being friends with Trump seems to have a...

libertarian economic policies have never worked in real life in anyplace they have been tried. austerity has also been an economic failure worldwide. no surprises here.

color me dubious. Cadiallac price points are quite high, in the USA, with many models starting at $50,000 and going up from there. The Escalades are $100,000 usd and up. add in the fifty percent or so that various taxes and IVA add, to the Argentine sales price, and you are talking very costly...

I have ridden on it, and keep meaning to do it again. Its a really pretty neighborhood, and has great art noveau and deco buildings, just right for a leisurely 10 kmh trip around a few blocks.

I, too, fondly remember a 3 peso choripan in 2007. (a dollar then) but, on the other hand, the variety and quality of food has greatly improved since then as well. I remember when every salad was grated carrot, iceberg lettuce, and raw yellow onion, for example. inflation is global, though...

I have been here part time since 2007. In most categories, things are better and easier. Banking, assuming you have a DNI, is much much simpler and you can do it all on your phone. I cant tell you how much better that is than before Covid. I havent had to physically enter a bank and deal with...

Italy did not exist as a country for a couple of hundred years after his death. It became a country in 1861. Columbus was born in Spainish territory, and was a spainard until he died. and I have been here since 2007, and I am still, obviously an expat, although not a "lib", I am far to the left...

Columbus, as they say in America, discovered Mana Imapis. Europeans had visited 500 or so years before he did. The people who lived here had "discovered" the New World, by immigrating from the Asiatic/Euro landmass, at least 20,000 years before he arrived. Its like saying, a NY tourist arrives...

Growing up in the PNW, I was aware of the history of rodeos- starting with the famed Pendleton Roundup. Obviously it was originally a hispanic thing, with mexican native americans figuring prominently dating back 500 years or more. In the USA, it was an african american cowboy, Bill Pickett, who...

she is not, as far as I know, a government official. If she visited, she would not be travelling on tax dollars, nor sponsored by the embassy. If she showed up at Niceto to see a band, I would go say hi, sure. but official government representation is completly different from any individual...

again, I give you an opinion on how well privatization worked in Great Britain.

water, the next big profit center.

On my first 10 day trip here, we went home having bought an apartment. that was in 2007. If you know, you know,..
