Agreed. I wonder what Argentina gains and loses (particularly financially) due to this crackdown. Since they turned a blind eye for so many years to the perma-tourists, they must have thought it was a boon to the economy or worth it to be considered an expat hot spot.
This once again raises the question is this deportation (denial of entry apparently based on too many visa runs) the beginning a the "long awaited crackdown" or, as Dr. Rubliar has often warned, the action of one official who may or may not be xenophobic? I'm not sure of the exact numbers, but I don't think it has happened more than a few times in the past nine years (since the law/decree regarding abuse of the tourist visa took effect), at least not to "pseudo-tourists" from Europe, Australia, or North America.
