    CFK guilty, sentenced to 6 years imprisonment

    I conflated corruption and crime in my last post because for me corruption involves some sort of monetary gain. Another poster had used the word corruption to refer to all crimes committed by govts, so I just went with that. I don't see any proof that Maci's govt was as corrupt in terms of...

    CFK guilty, sentenced to 6 years imprisonment

    I have no doubt that there is corruption everywhere, in every govt, in every country of the world. I also know it's all not as blatant as that of the Ks, that the types of more subtle corruption practices alluded to by Antipodean and Quilombo exist. I read the papers everyday, so I know about...

    CFK guilty, sentenced to 6 years imprisonment

    So where's the proof that Macri's govt was as corrupt as the Kirchners'? Have there been serious charges made in that respect? I think it's just too easy to say they're all the same.

    CFK guilty, sentenced to 6 years imprisonment

    That (the trip) is a separate issue and I hope it will be pursued to the fullest extent possible, the same thing I've always wanted for Cristina and her merry band of thieves. Ironically not something that her fanatical followers are in agreement with.

    CFK guilty, sentenced to 6 years imprisonment

    No, there's only so much of that self- serving, self-aggrandizing, totally narcisistic BS that a reasonable person can listen to.

    USA Govt to disclose Argentinian US bank account holders

    I read somewhere residents. In newspaper articles they don't talk about tax residents, but they did say residents, not just Argentines.

    Driver License

    I got my US license apostilled in the States but they told me that the problem with US licenses and documentation is that they do not provide enough information about the driver for them to accept it as valid, so I had to start over as a beginner. You don't have to take driving classes, you just...

    Still an American at heart

    I've seen this type of behavior in both stores and restaurants. In restaurants they can at times find any number of things to do before they bring you the menu for God sake. It's just rude and arrogant behavior. To call it anything else is to have lowered your standards to the point where you...

    Still an American at heart

    I thought you said that you've had almost no bad service here in the 15 years you've been living here part time. This post belies that. We all have restaurants in BA that we have discovered and love in which both the food and service are great (Parrilla Peña, Patilla San Cayetano are two that...

    Still an American at heart

    I think lots of us on this forum see and understand those transportation and workload issues for servers and are sympathetic. The problem is that there are times when servers are not busy, and even after you have waited a reasonable amount of time for them to say, bring you a menu, they still...

    Western Union money transfer

    I regularly set up and execute a US bank account to Argentine bank account transfer from BA on WU's website. When I've tried, also using WU's website from BA, to set up a US pay in store to BA bank account transfer, I've never been able to get very far in the process. I am currently in the...

    One-way car rental to Ushuaia? (anyone wants to share the trip?)

    Doesn't sound a good idea for the car owner, even with the money you've offered, since he or she would have to fly to Ushaia and drive the car back. And that's lots of wear and tear on the car.

    Do we need a roundtrip ticket on a Tourist Visa?

    I am from Atlanta so I often fly Delta from there to BA and I always get asked about a return ticket until I clarify that I'm a resident.

    The vicepresident's murder attempt

    In today's La Nación there's an article entitled "Discursos de odio. Lo que decían funcionarios y dirigentes oficialistas antes y durante el gobierno de Macri. Attached are screen shots from that article. You don't have to be a Macri supporter to see their total hypocrisy and that they are...

    Current VP and former President of Argentina could face prison time.

    80% is what one poll found, with only 43% of FDT voters believing that she's innocent.
