While I'm in favor of equalized retirement ages, our future Nobel laureate president should try to hide his intentions a bit better: I'm really enjoying all the libertarians who we're so excited to vote for the first libertarian president now calling him anything but with all these crazy tax...

I noticed this even in China; I was wondering to myself why there were white people in the ads in the subway, it was really weird to see, plus the fact that pharmacies literally sell "whitening creams" in South East Asia meant to make people's skin lighter was another one.

Yeah, it was a typical braindead comment from a braindead woman. Why was it called a conquest if it wasn't being colonized? I'm sure Vicky will have a genius answer for that one.

Yes and yes, but it's different than racism in the US/Canada/Australia/NZ/Europe. We don't have the Klan here, but there's a lot of racism none the less, even if it's less violent. For example, there's a sort of passive racism like when people assume my husband is the help, or that he's an...

While empirical, it's as I expected with several of us meeting/running in to high ranking politicians. I think the security issue is similar to treating someone with agoraphobia based in catastrophic thinking: if you worry about what/might/can happen, you'll never enjoy/be able to do what will...

I think people really underestimate the confluence of incompetence, chaos, and sheer difficulty of simply keeping someone whose job it is to interact with the public secure 24/7. How many of us have run in to presidents, governors, prime ministers, congressmen, senators, etc. in public without...

So Cristina should get the nobel prize for implementing them, right? Or does that make Caputo a liberal communist statist caste member, I forget, is it not bad when the Mileistas do it?

Brilliant, truly worthy of the Nobel Prize. They're going to cut off their nose to spite their face instead of accepting that the peso is over valued and that people/the market doesn't trust their governance. Let's review the economic wins of the Milei administration after 7 months: No...

Politicians riding in tanks is cringe, doesn't matter if it's Dukakis (at least he served, unlike Milei, talk about stolen valor) or Milei, just don't do it.

My expensas are insane, lowrise under 15 unit building, no portero, no security, no SUM, no pool, no nothing and it's like 135K/month

I accept payment for my work in USD, EUR, CAD, MXN, BRL, CNY and ARS (pegged to the price of the dollar), but these are only good as collectors items, and I assume many people in La Rioja will feel the same.

Thrilled to hear hay plata again apparently. Surely Pato Bullrich will be suing the army for the cost of any damage to roads, right?

He's hardwired to be an asshole it seems, just another far right populist

I hope we're wrong, but as soon as I saw it wasn't a 1 day story I just assumed he had been murdered for the reason you mentioned. I hope they find the body so the people that love him (whoever they are, because it's clear some of his family members don't) can have whatever form of closure there...

Western Union is still lagging behind at $1,344.50 and CCL is around $1,450; visa is giving $1,316 so likely cheaper for many, plus it's expected to go even higher now as the MEP too is around the $1,450 mark. Caputo's press conference on Friday didn't calm the markets because it reinforced...

Deposit in to the bank and withdraw them from the ATM.

It encompasses everything Argentine: a child robbed of his future, incompetent/corrupt police and politicians at the local, provincial, and federal levels, xenophobia towards Paraguayans, dysfunctional families, neighbors with feuds, the broad feeling of helplessness, personal responsibility...

Using a DNI with crypto transactions is a great way to get AFIP/UIF interested in you, least of all cuevas so this should be your default operation if you're going down the crypto route

Weird, just like many of us said, the Milei grift about dollarization was exactly that, humo to get elected https://www.infobae.com/economia/2024/07/01/caputo-le-aseguro-a-los-banqueros-que-el-peso-no-desaparecera-y-que-sera-una-moneda-fuerte/

It's a bit complicated because the franchise for cellphones and laptops is 1 each, generally understood to be for Argentine tax residents entering the country (i.e. not tourists bringing their phone with them, that's generally counted as part of the franchise of personal belongings which will...
