I would say they are all are fascist or socialist systems. Capitalism requires free markets, equality under the law, and the respect of property rights. Not too many countries exhibit these characteristics in today's world. Neoliberalism is crony capitalism at best. Fascism is more akin to...

This is how crony capitalism works. History shows us that the way to lift the most boats out of poverty is for free market capitalism to take hold. Unfortunately, folks don't understand what is free market capitalism. The under educated today like to blame "capitalism" which plays right into...

What customs limit? Why not bring as much as you need? I thnk you;ll save yourself a lot of hassle. Why spend day, time, and money going to Uruguay rather than just carry what you need with you?

There is no need to prove where the funds come from. Just fill out form FinCEN105, turn it in, and go on your way. In any airport you can ask where the CBP (customs border patrol) office is. In Miami it is upstairs in the international terminal. The customs officer sits there at a window. Give...

We recently reserved them online and then with that confirmation number paid with cash at Rapid Pago or one of those.. Go to website and it is no problem. With regard to your boyfriend, IMO he has zero chance of making it on resident rate. They will check DNI at airport.

ahh, only because you wrote it in reply to my comment. So MR BAexpat debater just an FYI experienced forum posters don't write a reply to someone and then claim it was in fact NOT a reply directed at that the person replied to. That is nonsensical garbage. I suggest you take your own cheap...

What? Why? Have I violated some unwritten code I would pick up on by reviewing old threads? I have been around this forum under this name since 2012 May. That's 18 months. At what point do you judge me to be no longer "new" ? I have lurked for longer than that. My ratio of posts to likes...

Not sure that everyone blames Obama. I for one blame both parties as I made clear previously so not sure who your comment is thrown at. For the record, however, since you opened the box, the democrats have had the senate and executive for a few years and Gitmo is sitll open. If my memory serves...

True which is why Reid, Pelosi, Obama, Boehner, etc use it. And I answered my own question using GS' comment vis-a-vis the rational versus the emotional voter. Of course I was being sarcastic b/c ajoknoblauch who has not been elected to anything actually drinks the Kool Aide of his/her almight...

I think you should enlighten all as to the quantum improvement over today... I have been researching and researching and can't find the benefit. But I am certiainly open to facts rather than platitudes. But what I see so far is the law give us the right to buy insurance from insurance...

In this instance my "real flesh-and-blood Santa Claus" are the US Founders, before them the great philosophers of the Enlightenment, and before them there was Confuscious, Plato, Jesus, Buddha etc. My proof that "Santa Claus" indeed landed his sled is the gift of the US Constitution. The best...

Why are you so upset with someone you happen to disagree? Himmm.... You don;t have to listen, read, or care about what someone else says or distributes. Why are you anxious to silence another ?

Besides the unnecessary personal attach with someone you may disagree, you also out your self as an ignoramus. The fact that many people like you are uncomfortable with the truth is your problem, not a conspiracy created by others. By all your comments here in this thread it is clear you are...

Our 3 yr old loves the trains. We used to take him all the time for rides on the Mitre line. With the state of affairs we've slowed down on riding the train for fun. Now we ride between Belgrano R and Saavedra... so to help the matter we went looking for train sets. The first one we bought in...
