https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/10/1156316 Only two countries support the embargo against Cuba: the USA and Israel. For some, this represents all of progressive humanity.

So, you were saying Milei didn't bring inflation down to single digits, and nobody else did either, so he must be good? I'm just trying to understand how this cheerleading logic works. 'Milei didn’t invent time travel, and nobody else did either, so he must be a genius?' Am I getting close?

Sorry, just to clarify, which of these do you consider to be a single-digit number: 18% or 38%?

For starters, Domingo Cavallo did it in Argentina with the Convertibility Plan back in 1991, which eventually contributed to economic collapse in 2001. Here are probably some more examples where inflation was drastically reduced in a short period of time: Israel 1984 Bolivia 1985 Poland 1989...

So be it! Would you consider this guy as your primary physician?

It's like someone was stabbed in the stomach, bled all night, and now that the bleeding has stopped. So, he must be doing much better. What a major win! If he's still breathing? Who cares!

Well, nothing stops them from introducing other taxes once your assets’ worth is established. Basically, it is a bet on the benevolence of the government - the same government that tear gases retired people protesting over low pensions. Next time this or some future president says, '¡No hay...

Have you watched Breaking Bad? Do you know why Mr. White and Skyler had a car wash business? If you earned the money in the old-fashioned way, paid taxes on it, and have paystubs, you can just bring them to the bank without needing the 'blanqueo' program.

Ok, let's go back to the quote that supposedly clearly demonstrates that Peron was a socialist. Perón doesn’t mention socialism at all. He simply says that there are two prominent philosophies - Christian and Marxist, without expressing a clear personal preference for either. Joe Biden could...

Socialism is mostly about collective ownership of the economy. If a political movement is not against private property, they don't stand for socialism. You are confusing this with "social democracy". Social democracy blends capitalism with strong welfare systems to ensure social equality...

That's only if you're lucky. He might even decide to charge you two dollars for every peso he spent. Then you're in real trouble (assuming you have a habit of agreeing with everything you're told).

I don't think this is an absolute requirement. You can propose what works for you. It's possible to do a direct sale without the 'Boleto,' where the title transfers to you upon payment in full. The multi-step process usually implies you need time to gather the full amount, like from selling your...

Imagine you want to buy an apartment in Argentina, and you think of the cost in terms of something tangible, like empanadas. Say, right now, buying that apartment would cost you the equivalent of 10 years’ worth of empanadas. (It's not actually empanadas, but rather "the cost of living," but...

RFK 2:42: Young adult cancer is up 79%. That's just classic scaremongering. https://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/aya.html

When a country defaults on its debt, it's too late to talk about the economics. It's like the death of an economy. I know 'repudiating' sounds much cooler, but it's basically the same thing. After repudiating the debt, you can only mourn the economy.

I think you might need to hire a private investigator to track them down. On second thought, visiting https://moneygram.com.ar might do the trick too.

I noticed that Milei's government caused severe climate changes in Argentina. Since Milei assumed office in December, the average daily temperature in Buenos Aires has dropped by more than 10 degrees Celsius. If this trend continues, six months from now the temperature will drop below zero...

The main point of medical insurance is to protect you from the unexpected. You can rationalize about the cost of routine doctor visits or X-rays, but those are just side benefits. The real difference becomes clear if you're ever faced with a life-or-death situation. People who didn't have...

Sometimes it feels like a competition to imagine what the AFIP can infer. Whoever comes up with the most ideas gets 4.5 golden stars.
