    World media in overdrive on Argentina

    I just read through the, somewhat long, and purely speculative 'article' linked. It provides zero substantive evidence that there where historically, or presently, any plans to use Patagonia as some sort of colateral with which to settle the debts owed. The article merley references a set of...

    Should Argentina's Economy be Dollarized Now.

    I was mocking the article and the populist K's. Just as I do with the neo-liberals. They both deserve to be derided whenever possible imho. Cheers!

    Should Argentina's Economy be Dollarized Now.

    It shouldn't be necessary to dolarize. The peso:dollar only went up because Macri is a bad person. As soon as the K's are back it will all be great! source: https://www.lanacion.com.ar/politica/la-plata-cristina-kirchner-retoma-presentaciones-su-nid2283377

    The default is righ here.

    I agree with a lot of that. Though please stop calling this batch of peronists/k's "radical socialists". They are quite obviously a faux left wing cleptocratic mafiosi populist grouping. Let's never forget that the only ideological content peronism has is the thirst for raw power. That's why...

    Pro Government March scheduled for this Saturday August 24.

    How dare you mock the good Dr. !!! He stands above us all , defending the downtrodden and shining light on the neferious Islamic-Nazi cabal that threatens the great, nay Holy, Argentine Peronist Utopía. /Sarcasm

    Do ppl ever just hookup in BA?

    Sounds like they are looking for a one night stand, and if they hit it off, a girlfriend. Or did I misunderstand? Finding a FWB in a bar, ya sure that could work too. Nothing wrong with using the modalities of the 20th century if that's what you are most comfortable with. Equally, nothing...

    Advice on VPNs?

    AirVPN are the best 'all round' in my opinion, Nord has a good reputation too. Do some research on google and you can find a vpn that suits your specific use case, that would be my advice. Good Luck! PS: VPN's which come bundled with other products (such as norton) are usually not as good...

    Do ppl ever just hookup in BA?

    I've had similar experiences here. Tinder and Badoo has a ton of people who are looking for serious relationships and even marriage and kids! Not what you'd usually expect/see in the US or UK on these apps. That said, you can probably find some open minded people if you keep looking. You just...

    Am I the only person in Argentina that finds the term "chinito" offensive?

    You haven't read the link I posted about whataboutism earlier in full, or you wouldn't be using such weak reasoning. It's exactly that sort of illogical reasoning that they talk about. But as I said, you are too far gone. So I don't expect much ;)

    Am I the only person in Argentina that finds the term "chinito" offensive?

    Stan, I respect your views on this, though we may differ on some of the grey area terms etc. That said, I really think you are wasting your time. These people here who think 'whataboutism' is a valid form of reasoning are just too far gone unfortunately. Good luck in any case. Cheers!

    Water

    Yep, you didn't read any of the articles. As I suspected, infinate monkey theorem. You keep talking about some random river and NO3 levels. This has nothing to do with the arsenic research I am talking about. Which explicitly states that river water is not contaminated. Again, as you...

    Water

    Yep, fair enough, caba extracts water from non arsenic contaminated sources. Provincia de Buenos Aires,and the rest of the country are screwed though. The original article wasn't very clear in my opinion, here is a better written one (below) which distinguished between Provincia de Buenos...

    Water

    Did you even read it? Here is a little quote for you. "Hace dos años, un estudio argentino publicado en la revista Science of the Total Environment dio cuenta de que uno de cada 10 argentinos vive en una zona donde el agua está contaminada con arsénico. Sólo en la provincia de Buenos Aires, se...

    living cost for one person in BA?

    Right now osde 210 is about 8500 pesos a month. I'm not associated with them, but have been researching. Medicus Azul or Celeste , similar coverage,are a little cheaper, maybe 5% . Swiss Medical are meant to be good also, haven't looked into them yet but will probably be similar costs. Not...

    Water

    High levels of arsenic are present in multiple areas of the city and conurbano, Though not everywhere. As far as I recall it's mostly dangerous for children/long term. Other than that it's usually ok. There was an article in la nación a while ago which shows all the effected areas, should come...

    Vegans invade La Rural

    This is simply untrue. You are seriously misinformed on this topic. The over eating of meats in the west and the related impact on the environment , beef and lamb primarily, are well documented. Just today the UN published a report on this; see the BBC's reporting below, for example...
