    Long-Term Predictions For The Peso?

    How on Earth will you start producing anything but Panamahats etc. without capital goods (machines)? Building e.g. a 380,000 ton bulk carrier based on handicraft without the help of machines is a tedious affair.

    Nor this: Hillary Clinton questions the mental health of Cristina Kirchner http://www.telegraph...a-Kirchner.html I also have a hunch, that if Argentina confiscated US citizens assets in Argentina as an insane "retaliation", the presidenta of Argentina would be able to travel by bus only and...

    "a practice that is far more common across the River Plate in Argentina than it is in law-abiding Uruguay: the exercise of a kind of teenage narcissism in which it is fine to break rules you don’t like, in the belief that you will get away with it. And if you don’t, well, it’s unfair because the...

    Which qualifications were needed to rate judge Griesa in 2009 and before? Does that mean that anyone who had lost a case could (and can) give him a negative rating? Are unqualified, anonymous ratings trustworthy? Does that mean that the older ratings are as useless & excessive as the new ones...

    What Are The Most Tiresome Post Types?

    In a debate, when somebody just make things up as they go, inventing "facts" (lies) to support their claims. When asked for documentation they provide a link to 4,219 pages "it's in there somewhere" or conveniently "forget" to provide it. I have two on my ignore list and one is on his way.

    Well, Griesa's decision seems to be no more atypical than the US Supreme Court accepted it. Besides, if you run any business, organisation or government, you plan for all possible outcomes of a court ruling, including that you lose. If you don't, you are incompetent.

    Sometimes I don't believe what I read. If judge Griesa's ruling is impossible to enforce, why does Argentina Whine in the OAS? Whine before Mercosur? Whine in the UN? Send a negotiation team to New York? Who can be jailed? the managers of any entity in the US which assists Argentina. Less...
