The manipulation today by the big players make the 1978 actors look like amateurs.

Speculators control the markets, not mom and pop dollar holders. I'm still convinced the dollar will go back up, albeit when is a good question. Rest assured the big players have and are making lots of profits on the exchange rate variations.

I've called some politicians far worse but calm your feathers as this is not a political gossip site. As for vermin, feel free to take a stroll in certain cities in the US (and of course in Argentina) at night. That title will be mild if and when you're done the walk. As for politicians...

You obviously missed the point.

The truth about politicians can't be masked.

I thought it was because I'm so sweet!

If you have money and want to spend it on, for example, expensive restaurants, do it! Unless you want to be the wealthiest stiff in the cemetery. Otherwise your family will be fighting over who gets what of yours when you pass.

Gotta like how Milei calls out the politicians here: "congress is a nest of rats".

Next you'll blame ...... Trump.

While there are, indeed, many fine Argentine restaurants, I notice many of them are not full these days! A sad comment on the times.

Hardly, however mixing lemons with pineapples isn't, in my opinion, relevant.

I'd still prefer to be in Argentina over Taiwan. I'll live with the problems.

Your post is going to result in the highly respected and learned counselor needing a change in underwear.

You're obviously entitled to your beliefs but exactly who is the "we"? Seems all Christina and her kind did was to expand an underclass of impoverished Argentines who depend on govt largesse. Just how long did you think her benevolence would last? My guess is until your last peso.

Like squeezing the Charmin by Mr Whipple!

To keep you from being wiped out, Carrefour today had this toilet paper at 3,100 with 80% off the second. It's so, so soft.....
