Now, let's try and be civil, I don't know what your background is but mine is International Relations and I've never implied that you need to do your research or anything like that. I will say I've only ever heard you put out the claim that it was a grand conspiracy to install dictatorships so...

Please provide an example that comes from after Reagan was President, the USSR was a country and people could afford home PCs. These are from THIRTY YEARS AGO. In an episode of The Simpsons when Bart wants pizza delivered by Kursty, and he does, and asks how his show can be live at the same...

Of course it exists abroad, but the point is that at least other countries can function and preform the basic roles of the state at the same time. Argentina in a philosophical sense is violating the Social Contract, and I think other than intentionally ruining a nation for one's personal gain...

Fine, award them citizenship. Honestly, this sounds terrible, but you guys have 2 possible hopes for a better future: 1) Stop electing thieves/inept leaders 2) Stop electing Argentines I'm almost at the point where I think in Argentina the two are not mutually exclusive. Sometimes when a...

I know Singer/Elliot said he/they didn't own any CDS' but I have a feeling they might have some sort indirectly or by proxy. I don't have any proof, just nagging suspicion...

I think Argentina needs to go from being an ineptocracy to a semi-technocracy for a few years at least. My proposal would be: President: Frau Merkel Economy Minister: Mark Carrney (Former Bank of Canada and current Bank of England Chair) Cabinet Chief: David Axelrod Minister of Foreign...

I fly to Toronto and this goes from 8 pages to 27 and the last post is bajo and don still fighting, even though it happened? Oh BAExpats, I can't leave you.

Meanwhile, BAExpats in general not sure what to do

Well the Markets don't believe in a default, or they seem to be hedging that there will be a resolution causing a surge. Who knows...

You know, for someone who rails against private interests and companies CFK needs to mind her huge mouth and stop complaining so much because the ADEBA move was pretty patriotic and respectable, even if it is in their interest.

The teller and I talked about how we think things are being done to make it as difficult as possible to get dollars so people don't try to leave the country for any reason. I believe they wish to make you feel like a criminal so you just don't bother or go straight to Florida since those dollars...

I was able to buy them, made a guide for everyone's convience

Step 8: In this section here, you must add yourself and any dependants/family members traveling with you. Once you do, you can hit "Agregar" to populate the "Nomina..." list. This is also the page on which you enter the amount IN PESOS that you want to be authorized to buy. I applied for...

Hi All, I've taken the liberty of making a guide to demonstrate how one can apply for and hopefully get permission from AFIP to buy USD/GBP/EUR/etc for foreign travel. I was able to do this today, July 29th 2014 and got my dollars from Banco Galicia where I have an account. Let's begin...

Yeah I'm thinking the other area of the country is anything Argentina claims was stolen from them, like parts of Chile for that matter. Truth is country is about to default on Wednesday. I'm leaving this week and unless you have a job or two that pays SOLELY in USD lined up I'd chose almost any...

My personal take on the issue is this: Argentina wants to pay the renegotiated debit from the swaps as it has been working hard with the IMF and Paris Club to try and gain access to foreign capital for several months now. Building good faith through these means lowers borrowing rates and also...

Well, for agencies like XOOM for example, they only accept US Bank accounts as a funding means. It is likely due to the fact that they don't want to deal with the different laws/regulations in the Canadian banking sector, it also takes longer for ACH transactions to process in Canada in Canadian...

A) No, passport for xoom. B) Don't know C) Must be paid online BEFORE arrival and the printed slip has to come too.

1. Only if you sell them at an exchange house for say ~8 ARS per CAD and keep the receipt/paperwork, go to the same place, etc. 2. No. Only with a credit card can you withdraw foreign currency, though in theory you could buy prepaid amexes/visas/master cards from Shoppers/Metro/Loblaws and use...

My friend likes to use more than 2 eggs for an omelette and his friends went nuts. If you puke from drinking too much you must have gotten food poisoning, even if we all ate the same food. Americans like highfives (I still have no idea why they think we do this all the time lol) Nepotism...
