You might end up arrested since while doing so you might violate number of legislations (e.g. trespassing, as well as immigration rules of Canada or Mexico). However, you would end up inside the United States, not outside. That's the difference. Those people ended up outside Argentina, not...

I beg to differ. Imagine virtual experiment: I'm Argentine authorities. I tell citizens to go to another border crossing. Then, when they come to that another border crossing I tell them -- now this border crossing is also closed. But some third border crossing is open. And I continue...

some people always get things ahead of others. Money in free markets (and in absence of inheritance) is the fairest way to determine who goes first. I lived in the Soviet Union and pecking order was determined in all kinds of perverted and corrupt ways.

looks interesting but need to be careful -- they do not work with residents of all states. California works. Washington state does not. If you try wrong state, your email address is wasted -- need another email to try another state.

is it possible to do Western Union transfer to mercado pago account? in WU web interface I'm able only to specify receiver's bank account with limited selection of bank names

I made my first attempt to use Western Union to make a transfer to Argentine bank account. When specifying recipient there is list of banks to choose and it does not contain my bank which is WiloBank. Is there any way to transfer money specifically to WiloBank?

there are multiple flavors of coke available without sugar (diet and zero coke). I don't see a problem in soda consumption.

they likely don't demand proof of residency to accommodate homeless and undocumented (i.e. illegal) residents. Reasonable solution would be to revoke visas of tourists who abuse this. Make them inadmissible.

apparently darkness is the best friend of coronavirus

ACH transfer and wire transfer are different. The former is 1-2 days and free. The latter is minutes but requires a fee.

number that someone counts and number that is of any interest are two different numbers. In this case number that they count is number of people who were at some point tested positive for covid. But the number that is really of interest (for instance, to estimate fatality rate) is number of...

I don't see how this data answers Alby's request for hospitals load data year over year. Also all data about covid number of cases is death is subject to these kinds of bias: (1) number of cases tends to be undercounted because they miss asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic cases; (2) number of...

do they start requiring such test in January? I travelled from EZE on Dec. 28th and they didn't required any test.
