Interesting that her latest rampage has not been mentioned on here by anyone.
Some of you may know...she just returned from Caracas where she was
"very distressed" by the idea that Colombia would have a possible agreement with the U.S. and have American troops there working with the Colombians to fight drug trafficking. Never mind that Colombia is a sovereign country and it is their business what they do. She and Senor Chavez are calling the peasants to arms.
About the only thing she can do on her own is pick out her daily splash of makeup and fingernail polish. Her ideas are not her own. She listens and does whatever Senor Chavez and her equally better husband direct her to do. They will stir the masses of illiterates by promising them choripan and a job and install hate for those that have money and do not support her leftist policies.
Now her latest plan to develop Cooperatives AND insist that all information collected by AFIP by made public for all to see. She is the self-appointed leader of social justice and inequality.
1. Just where is this money to support the jobs and infrastructure coming from? The wealthy? Foreigners perhaps?
2. Who is going to stop the nonsense? No one. The "wealthy" educated Argentines just go on like sheep thinking this is a first world country, completely blind to the reality that things are continuing to go downhill even faster but as long as they can go to Punta del Este or Bariloche then all is fine.
3. New 30% tax on all electronic/computer/cameras, etc. Already Argentina had the most hostile environment for imports and the most expensive in South America. Anything purchased considered to be "luxury" will be subject to punishment. Since when is a computer "luxury"?
4. New 30% payraise for the doormen/porteros which I have mentioned before. This was supposedly for the increase in electricity fees. What was the connection when they mostly live gratis in the first place? Will this new payraise be suspended now that electricity prices are going to be subsidized indefinitely? I don't think so.
5. Meanwhile, the Kirchners' personal income and real estate holdings have escalated so much that it actually has raised some red flags. But like we have seen SO many times over the years, nothing will ever come of it and they will eventually manage to maintain all they have stolen with no reprucussions whatsoever.
I obviously don't know what the solution is. I just raise the issues. I suppose the only thing one can do is to maintain a LOW profile and sit back and see what happens. It just appears to me that things are spiralling downhill FAST and money will be grabbed at the easiest, quickest way possible to support more and more "equitable" programs for the poor.
Some of you support La Presidenta and I am completely baffled as to why. Can you not see what these people are doing with their goons like Elia?
Perhaps shortly Argentina will join a federation with the Bolivaran Republic of Venezuela but as many will say, I am just too negative. Reality sucks sometimes.
