As opposed to a soybean monarchy where everyone can trust that the Queen's command will benefit the common good.

They are all the same. That is my point.

Exactly. Just some banana republic where the government negotiates and signs agreements and even though they don't have a majority to ratify it.

If your definition of 'banana republic' coincides with others' definition of 'separation of powers', then OK.

Anyone and any branch can be corrupted, so separation of powers does not in and of itself solve all problems, but your issue seems to be with something that is a good thing.

Well, that sounds better that a country where politicians can be legally bought, and guest what? They rule for the súper rich, not for you.

US Politicians on both sides of the aisle argue in Congress, but they care about the poor, when they meet at the local charity get together at the Hamptons - Like Kerry and Biden millionaires that represent the poor?

We are talking about separation of powers. You provided an excellent example of where the US President can't impose his/her will (in most cases). How is that the same? In my experience of the two countries separation of powers seems pretty non-existent in Argentina - with few exceptions.

Before you get your panties in a wad about me attacking the Motherland I'll state that I think that separation of powers in the US has been greatly diminished in the last 40 years and I think the US has a much poorer form of government because of it. We need to rollback the Executive Powers BS.

Actually, in the US, the petty obstructionists are in charge: http://tinyurl.com/kdvd9za

The national government in Argentina has currently a majority in the parliament so it is not too difficult to get their projects through. But the same happens in the US - with presidents who have (somewhat solid) majorities in both senate and house. There are also current examples in Argentina where the (provincial) government does not have a majority of the seats and needs to work with the opposition - like in Mendoza since the last election. So I would not go that far and say that there is no separation between executive and legislature.

The Argentine position vis a vis the Vulture Funds may not prosper with the current Legal reps , Paul Clement, and Carmine Boccuzzi..! Clement was an expert in litigating Supreme Court cases, didn't help! read between the lines....!
