I think clearly what I said was a joke, and vented frustration in my boyfriend´s inability to commit
Of course there are many Argentine women who do not care about the green card... but it´s also true that there are many who do. It´s sad because for some people it really is the only way out that they can see to a lifetime of economic instability and insecurity. This is at least the version I have heard from these women, and I think it makes sense. Now women here who have a very good economic level here in Buenos Aires may never be interested in a green card, because of course, this is an amazing city if you´ve got the cash.
I think all RC was trying to mention was that, sadly, there is a tendency among down on their luck women to start to see moving to the US as their only escape...
