    I Was Denied Entry At Ezeiza

    Sounds like smirkypants has issues that he is not sharing regarding exactly his status. If he overstayed , and did not pay the overstay fine , then he got what was coming. I have no sympathy. Get your act together , stay within the 90 days , get a stamp , or get a DNI . If his stuff is worth...

    Why Still No Buenos Aires-Colonia Bridge?

    All it takes to move the port is money. Lots and Lots of money. The Chinese have been big players in Port infrastructure and development around the World.
