    Argentines protest Milei's economic shock therapy

    Regarding private sector not held accountable is exactly what Milei said. Probably means not to higher the taxes on profits and such, while taxing people more, laxing of employment laws, less regulations of private sector etc. Some is understandable and necessary, some isn't. If we see last...

    Argentines protest Milei's economic shock therapy

    Strange, I didn't get it like this at all. Some fun comments yes, a bit too much about oil, but truth is, Argentina is crazy rich country if you compare it to many developed countries. And Argentina is depending heavily on international raw material and food prices, we can't denie that. Later...

    Argentines protest Milei's economic shock therapy

    It's comedy show, they claim on the start they don't know nothing about the Argentina, but they were strangely accurate when it comes to facts. I would really like to know which part was terribly wrong in your eyes.

    Milei alters Internet rules to make way for Elon Musk’s Starlink

    It wouldn't be bad if end products will be made in Argentina, this would certainly maximise profit. Raw material is always subject of exploitation.

    Rental Law Will be Repealed Tomorrow, by Decree

    And I would equally demand protection for the landlords. Saying that some protection for tenants should be in the law is not excluding protection to the landlords. Both can coexist in the same law, that can be loosely framed to provide certain protection to both groups. Written law also...

    Argentines protest Milei's economic shock therapy

    Thank you for the effort, however I did not find anything that would change my mind in those articles. Maybe possibility to sell the land after fire isn't really needed, the rest I can only approve. We are just build differently I guess.

    Argentines protest Milei's economic shock therapy

    I, for one, like to stand corrected. But you really didn't provide nothing to correct my opinion. You posted part of the law and comment below, which didn't make much sense. And when disputed, you sent us digg out controversials by ourselves, claiming there is plenty around, although my quick...

    Argentines protest Milei's economic shock therapy

    I was responding to what you posted, supposedly very controversial part of the law, that makes complete sense to anyone concerned about environment. And your adding below, which was really silly. Don't send people to read old press and comments, if you are not willing to provide them yourself...

    China suspends US$6.5 billion currency swap agreement with Argentina

    Not really. It was 12th in 1950, highest ever, 15th still in 1980 and then slided out. To contribute decline to this quote is to ignore the world and reality.

    Argentines protest Milei's economic shock therapy

    I'm not sure, but it looks like you didn't buy the land that was available to be developed. You bought something with designated purpose, and this law prevents you to change its use by simply burn down, let's say forest. In those 60 years you can do with this land all you could do before the...

    Rental Law Will be Repealed Tomorrow, by Decree

    In the country, where half population is poor, quarter lives in extreme poverty? Grow up, if someone believes in magic fairies it's you. Desperation of people is EXACTLY what government has to solve. It's there for people, not for themselves or minority of rich. And I'm not calling to some...

    Rental Law Will be Repealed Tomorrow, by Decree

    This is exactly what zero regulation is, if everything is defined by contract between to none equals parties. If someone is desperate enough, will sign whatever. Or contracts will be written by lawyers in such way, that without lawyer you won't see the tricks... I can see usa guys here...

    Rental Law Will be Repealed Tomorrow, by Decree

    Yes and no. Messing with someone's property of course isn't correct thing in normal society, but when this property goes to the market, it's business, that is usually controlled by the government to some degree. Like every business is, and customers should be protected to some extent. Exist...

    Issues with Coto shopping

    I was always paying with cash, and never anyone asked me my dni. Few weeks ago in interior I paid with a foreign card and issue appeared. Since all my documents were far away, they were satisfied with passport on phone, but obviously foreigners are so rare here, supervisor finished the...

    Milei's in charge !!!…Wow !!!

    Of course, retailers are always at your door, but these aren't investments Argentina needs. To set a shop for big international companies is nothing, zero liability. Ikea is a bit different, since they are usually relying also on locally made products, so there is some mini potential. To set up...

    Milei's in charge !!!…Wow !!!

    Exactly. Till now he did not show any intent to cut the cancer. I guess he has to thread carefully, if he even has any wish to touch that part. For now he's after people, who spend money in Argentina. Where all this money goes? Even ñoquis aren't buying properties in Miami, someone else is doing...

    Argentina’s Ruined Railways Will Force Milei to Confront Poverty

    I was replying to @tonitigre, he gave very optimistic view on privatisation, while most cases similar to trains in Argentina turn out as disaster. I would like to share his optimism, but that would go against my experiences. I can't call myself an expert on the field, but was working in...

    Argentina’s Ruined Railways Will Force Milei to Confront Poverty

    I'm sorry, but that's fairy tale level of naivety. It is quite stupid to reject one of most successful businesses on the world to place hq in your community, and this example isn't in any way similar to privatisation of train system in whole country. The same as you painted beautiful picture of...

    Inflation woes: A can of tuna now costs 4500

    In reality, if I would earn 300 dolars per month no such place would be cheap enough for me. But if I should say the fair price, I would put it around 4 dolars. Usa in my opinion is one of more expensive places on earth, and shouldn't serve as a measure for the rest of (poor) world. Workers...

    Argentina’s Ruined Railways Will Force Milei to Confront Poverty

    Passenger transportation almost nowhere works without subsidies, or is connected to freight network, that covers the losses of passenger part. There is no way private company can do anything with trains, except sell what there is and close down.
