Quoting "bigbadwolf":
". . . . Seems like BsAs is converging towards Sao Paolo. I expect crime of every sort to increase as an influx of immigrants from Bolivia, Peru, and Paraguay creates an ever-larger and increasingly impoverished and desperate underclass. . . ."
I'd agree with BigBad's analysis. Regrettably, though, this pattern is repeating itself all over the world today, with the notable but only partial exceptions of totalitarian states: ever larger inflows of immigrants from impoverished lands, finding disappointment in place of hoped-for riches, turn to crime, often violent. This is occurring in North American cities and in Western European. No surprise, then, only regret, that Buenos Aires follows the pattern.
