I've been able to find just about any book I want online to download for a very small charge. Lots of websites do this. You can print it out at your friendly neighborhood 'libreria' if you want to read it in print. Not fancy, but you'll get what you need.

One of the sweetest words in Spanish: "autoservicio"

For outdoors life, that region of the country is just awesome. Idaho, WA,OR,MT,UT, WY -all absolutely beautiful In a few weeks, I'm returning the the US after 8 years of nomadic travels. Heading to the Spokane region first, but planning to visit Boise/Colorado Springs before deciding where to...

Best wishes to you, dear.

Based on both your postings, you may want to checkout Mar de Plata. In the 'off season' (March-November) the place clears out, great infrastructure, but low density population. The locals are low key, friendly, polite. Safer city and I don't recall dog poop being a problem. In my experience...

I agree 100% with you. If an employee wishes to delegate some responsibility to an organization. That is their right to choose to do so. -as you say... "Choosing" Likewise, obviously, if an employee wishes to work without delegating some responsibility to a union boss...."why not?" Only a...

I'm diligent about spraying exposed skin before I head outside, but the little bloodsuckers changed tactics and started biting me right through my clothing. I'm 90% annoyed, 10% impressed they could do that. Guess I'm still an easier target than the 4 legged types.

My initial question to you was requesting you to elaborate on the benefits that have gone to India from participating in BRICS. As of today, I can't see a single thing that India has benefitted from BRICS other than status/media attention. All the "NDB" projects that have been completed or...

The quote you cited is intended to demonstrate that India is engaging in circular payments to its own projects. BRICS and the NDB aren't playing a role in these projects. They are simply functioning as pass through entities. Its all for appearances. Hence these projects don't demonstrate any...

Agreed. In India there are 4 BRICS bank (NDB) infrastructure projects completed worth about $2 billion, and another 20 projects approved worth another $6 billion. But India's contribution commitment at the NDB was $100 billion of which $8 billion has been spent/earmarked. If India funnels $$...

Care to elaborate on how India has benefitted from BRICS? Granted, it gets them some good international press and a seat at a table that gives the 'perception' of status... but how have they actually benefitted from it?

and if you will allow me a brief follow-up comment... We shan't forget about candidate Milei's narrowest of narrow appeals. The strongest trait I associate with people of "The Tribe" is gratitude and loyalty towards those who show it to them. We may see a modest flow of sweet, sweet...

There is plenty of investment capital sloshing around the globe. He's making a play for private money from North America. Given how many times investors in Argentina have been burned by the cyclical nature of Argentine politics (liberalization and nationalization), its a hard sell...

I'm referencing a life process that has been in effect for 3.5 billion years; and you think that something special has happened to your generation separating you from all prior life on planet earth? No, madame/sir it does not. Bitterness is what separates us, not proximity to reality. This is...

Blind? not yet...but getting there. Pollyanna? Well, I prefer "A ray of sunshine" or a "lighthouse beacon of hope" But sure, I'll accept Pollyanna.

Alright. You have convinced me with your reasonable reply. I've moderated my early position which was: "life in prison" (which is what I meant when I said "forfeits their life") to now supporting Milei's "up to 6 years in prison". Hopefully everyone on all sides can agree with yours and...

Oh? In a free economic system, some people complain about high prices. Other people see high prices as an opportunity make, import, sell, broker, or arbitrage the situation. All of these actions have to side effect of bringing prices down. Whomever solves other people's problems or finds a...

I understand the sentiment, but I think the necessary motivational factors are as old as life itself on earth. 3.5 billion year of life striving for something better. Of course incentives -or the lack thereof- matter. Argentines have lived with severely distorted incentives for so long that it...

The wise get rich while the bitter people bitch.
