If one of us is mentally ill, it doesn't seem to be me.

Oh, I see. If you write then it is first class documentation, and if I provide a link to an interview with Eduardo Fernandez, a former fuels director in Argentina's energy ministry, that is not valid documentation? Bajo, you are again trying viveza criolla, making up as you need it to "prove"...

Some years ago there was a poster who called himself Blah-Blah. Was that you?

No, the board software placed an incomplete copy at one position and the whole post here: http://baexpats.org/topic/28904-news-in-the-usa-is-argentina-might-default-again/page__st__70#entry240690

OK, I'll wait 23 years and see how close it comes to successful Aerolíneas.

Defect almost duplicate deleted.

I am not upset, I just want the 300 dollars you see as almost no money. I'll be happy to remove the weight of money on your burdened shoulders.

No. "The problem was a government approved practice of allowing Repsol to use profits to pay shareholder dividends rather than invest that money in the company's future. "That led to a lack of reinvestment in utilities, little exploration and dwindling reserves, as oil fields dried up and...

The world has been waiting for 50 years to see whatever - which never showed up.

You did notice, didn't you, that the nationalised YPF produces less gas and less oil, even oil of an inferior quality than when it was run by the evil capitalistic Repsol.

My income is in Euros and dollars, and yes, I spend money on what I need and want, but I don't waste it. As I wrote: You are more than welcome to send me 300 US dollars, which in Mendoza is more than half a month's rent.

Neither a trap nor some mumbo-jumbo in accordance to someone's income. Years of experience with Argentine national economical policies teach us that attempting to find the logic behind it is futile. Insider tip, here is how it actually works: 1. Write a number of possible policies on a...

Precisely as camberiu hinted: The problem with beef is that the domestic price was forced to a lower level than the international market price. Not until then did it become more profitable to grow soy.

You somehow "forgot" to answer the question: Are you willing to do business at a similar loss? You are a lawyer. How about reducing your prices to less than 55% of the present?

How many first years are there? most would think there is only one. "The second year, you pay it during the year, in advance ..." - that is on average half a year in advance. Ok, taxes for dummies: When the real inflation is more than 28% per year and on average more than 14% in half a year, I...

I absolutely agree, resources, which belong to all of us, should be nationalised or we may not be able to enjoy these huge losses. You have undoubtedly companies like Aerolíneas in mind. A great and successfull nationalised company running an average annual loss of half a billion dollars, at...

So you are prepared to pay me the "almost no difference"? not really money, so why shouldn't you? Once more you make up as you go.

Partly right, but for the wrong reasons. Try this: Market analysts and Repsol blamed the decline in exploration and production on government controls on exports and prospecting leases, and price controls on domestic oil and gas. Rather than raise fuel prices that are now about five times lower...

Dirt cheap soapbox cars. The prices of the three most "expensive" are lousy 470,000 resp. 453,000 resp. 393,000 Argentine pesos at the official rate, not much more than the average Arg. cartonero spends on his new car. </irony>

I am looking forward to EdRooney's explanation - it will be really 'interesting' :)
