I'm sure the K apologists are going to say it's some CIA conspiracy or something. The fact that AF is telling a critic publicly on Twitter that he knows where his kids go to school, makes me believe my friend is just one of many who was bullied and threatened. My friend is a normal hardworking...

I have a friend who was threatened by him several years ago. He is now the minister of security and threatening critics. He has been accused of being behind drug deals and murders, I don't know if it's true, but I question why a government that is so supportive of human rights is giving this...

Yes, but not only socialist systems. Governments of all stripes love to blame problems on a group of people or another country as the root of their ills. It's usually the Jews, poor immigrants, yankees, "terrorists," etc.

I acknowledge interference in Latam affairs now and in the past by outside forces such as the USG, corporations, and now China in their own way. There are many examples you can cite. It's also a very convenient excuse, especially for the peronists, that it's not their decades of poor leadership...

I'm not attacking you, and I enjoy your posts. I'm just ridiculing how people who defend Cristina believe that there is some massive conspiracy theory to bring down CFK that even random youtube channels are involved in. I find similarities in how Trumpers only believe Fox News and think the...

CFK truthers sound like Trumpers with all their fake news conspiracy theories.

Lawfare does happen (impeachment of Lugo in Paraguay), but now every corrupt politician across Latin America claims they are a victim of it. For example, in Peru, it's the left that control the courts more at the moment and the center right wing politicians being charged who are crying lawfare...

Redpossum is the guy in 1990 claiming that John Gotti was a just a successful businessman because he was never convicted of anything at that point.

Thank you, luckily I haven't had to experience that and my family and I are vaccinated so fingers crossed that it stays that way. I'm very sorry to hear that you and yours had to go through it. I can understand your frustration living through that experience, but I don't think treating others...

Kind of presumptive on your part, and very condescending. Sounds like you know what's best for everyone and Argentina.

If I am vaccinated, catch covid, remain asymptomatic, and spread covid I can go to jail for 15 years? While, if I invade someones house, tie them up, beat them to a pulp, rob them of all their possessions, I am looking at 5-10 years? Makes sense.

BuT MaCrI bAd!!!! Any other profound thoughts @BAHibs ?

Yes exactly my point.The large corporate companies who have enough money to advertise on TV, have influence with the government and so on are the companies that don't follow the rules as I mentioned in the previous post, or they find loopholes. Just because they have visibility doesn't mean...

This is what people don't understand. There are businesses who are trying to implement positive social change with their products and hiring people in the community. They follow regulations to a T, and then find themselves bankrupt, the former employees now have to go work a Temp job as a...

It's not a starting point, it's a consideration when a business hires someone. It's a consideration made across the world, not just the US. If you didn't consider costs of labor then you'd go out of business pretty quickly. It hurts PYMES and companies who are trying to be compliant the most...

I do think labor reform of some sort is needed. It would also increase hiring in cases because many businesses are so cautious to take on new employees because of all the cost associated with letting them go, if needed. I agree with some of JxC ideas that can be deciphered from their vague...

This is a good question. Last time it was to take on massive dollar denominated debt, keep the printing press on, remove capital controls, have all that debt then go right out the door again in capital flight, take on loans from the IMF, jack up interest rates to 80%, inflation still sky high...

Yup, at this point, it's all about economics. Once borders open again dollars are going to be leaving at a faster rate than entering, or that's the calculation of the government. And to BAHibs this isn't an anti government opinion from opposition voices. It's a cost benefit analysis done by...
