    Argentina's history of anti-semitism

    Why don't you talk about the lobby that owns hollywood & wall st instead? Why don't you ask those people in the USA who live in tents what they think about the 'special interest groups' who make up the overwhelming majotiry that controls world finance? Take your stale propaganda somewhere else.

    Argentina - Racism?

    Argentina - Racism?

    Hi expatalex, I'm not criticising your post in any way, I'm just expanding on a part of it. I think that clarifications need to be made when one points to 'racism' here in Argentina. First there is the clear cut racism based on your ethnicity where no matter what your moral codes or social...

    Ebay import tax & duties

    A clarification about my last post above & some more details: Regarding that %60. Roughly speaking, if the on-line cost is $100... then you add %60 of the $100 and add it on top giving you the total of = $160 (or more - depending on the type of item) The other little nasty I found out was...
