    Argentine lean beef is excellent for asado every weekend, “Quilmez” and and meat “empanadas” for the boys, While the europids tightens hosterity meassures, lets be kind to them because the supersize meals and free b's are over for them, I still think Argentina is way better off keeping the export tax and giving subsidies to small Argentine farmers who will circulae the money withing out borders, an Argentine made car could help a lot minimizing the capital going out of the country to give job to other nations who utilize our resources.
