Jun 26th, 2011 - 08:19 am - Link - Report abuse 0Boudou is the chained watch dog of CK. He´s earning lots of money - as CK - and speakes his masters words. CK doesn´t have the foggiest ideas of a commercial way to go in the world. She only knows about that what the poor claim: MONEY. So she spreads money over the people hoping to get their voices for election. And she will be successful. Poor Argentina.
Jun 26th, 2011 - 10:23 am - Link - Report abuse 0The inflation will be faster than the money can be spent. The old way from years ago will be the new way for years ahead. 30 % plus in salaries countrywide will eat up their reserves soon. But than they stand there without a restructured industry and modern jobs. That makes the difference to Greek who struggles to get its´s problems solved.
Are they related?

Jun 26th, 2011 - 04:19 pm - Link - Report abuse 0La presión sobre los jueces,
El manoseo constante del Poder legislativo,
La destrucción de las fuerzas armadas y de seguridad,
La apropiación de las reservas del Banco Central y de la Anses para financiar el abundante gasto público,
Los medios de comunicación estatales a su servicio o en manos de operadores kirchneristas financiados con la fastuosa publicidad oficial que desborda en egresos vergonzosos como ‘Fútbol para Todos’,
Los gravísimos hechos de corrupción pasados y los presentes que bombardean a sus únicos aliados actuales como son Hebe de Bonafini (Madres de Plaza de Mayo) y Hugo Moyano (CGT),
La inflación un mal que avanza sin médico que la atienda o al menos la tenga en cuenta,
La inseguridad,
Los 11 millones de pobres e indigentes,
Los US$ 50.000 millones sacados al exterior por argentinos que no confían en el país,
La caída del país al 6to. lugar en inversiones extranjeras en América latina,
Los subsidios a los servicios públicos que si se sacasen significarían un incremento del 20% en el índice general de precios,
La diferencia de más de 30 veces entre los más que más ganan y los que menos perciben, la máxima en la historia del país.
Any questions??
Oh dear.....pipe dreams !

Jun 26th, 2011 - 06:19 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The Argentina people will most certainly lose out,
the trouble with obsessions is the perpetrators nearly always, sells the family silver to get what they want,
And normally ends up losing both , just a thought .

Jun 27th, 2011 - 03:29 am - Link - Report abuse 0“La destrucción de las fuerzas armadas y de seguridad”
I don’t agree with that mate, the military elite destroyed themselves by it own stupidity, ideology linked with the “campo”, corruption and weakness.
And example of that is that meanwhile in Brazil they developed the industrial complex, the Argentineans militaries concentrate themselves in destroying it and in leaking the boot of the Yanks every time they can.
Any question?

Reportable behavior
”Execute Valkyrie at once”………………………………………..
Ever thought that comments like these, and not the ”bearing of a surname” are the best way not to get promoted?
Reportable behavior?. He's just telling the truth.
Jun 27th, 2011 - 04:26 am - Link - Report abuse 0Perhaps this economy minister would like to do some work with Rockhopper Exploration after this morning's news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jun 27th, 2011 - 06:29 am - Link - Report abuse 0Let it flow, flow and flow some more. Happy times!
Calling for someone's death is an order. It is not a statement of fact, so it can't be true or false.
Jun 27th, 2011 - 06:33 am - Link - Report abuse 0execute Valkyrie at once!! ..............what did he do to upset you that much ? Poor old Valkyrie had best go into hiding.
Jun 27th, 2011 - 06:34 am - Link - Report abuse 0@35 Forgetit.....I would be surprised if any mercopress person would get involved in any discussion on this board unless they declared their interest. I would hope their integrity would be above that.

Jun 27th, 2011 - 01:35 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@37 what we have now is the paying back to the Military, plain and simple !! leave the Campo alone for a second, without it , we are screwed.
@38
Ever thought that comments like these, and not the ”bearing of a surname” are the best way not to get promoted? Heck No !!
”Execute Valkyrie at once” .... It was a joke Think, relax !! you like to play the victim sometimes ....
Their knowledge is such that that they cannot tell the difference between Execute (kill) and Execute (carry out the plan).
Jun 27th, 2011 - 01:49 pm - Link - Report abuse 0True!!

Promote him? Are we a little sensitive about certain issues Think? what are you afraid of? Do you take literally everything is being said in this forum? Your dislike for the Armed Forces are so obvious and I respect it but so far, you hang on to a joke instead of admitting the truth and debating me with facts. Little opposition is bad for business ? you all don't allow neither you like it !!!!!!! and that is a FACT

Jun 28th, 2011 - 08:31 am - Link - Report abuse 0“what we have now is the paying back to the Military, plain and simple !! leave the Campo alone for a second, without it , we are screwed.”
Sorry who stop the production of Condor II and scraped it?
Menen and Duhalde.
Who gave FMA to the Yank Lockheed Martin to be scraped?
Again Menen & Duhalde following Neocons instructions=Campo
Who scraped ARA Veinticinco de Mayo without replacement?
Menen Dhualde dynamic duo.
And we where lucky that they couldn’t scrap CONAE, INVAP, CITEFA, FM, etc,
Campo alone?
PRN= Martinez de Hoz= campo (SRA family founder)=”traidores a la patria”.
Martínez de Hoz while promoting measures to destroy and give up to foreigners Argentinean’s assets as guideline of his policy, contrary to that policies he nationalised “Italo Argentino” the Swiss electric company (in which he was director) given to fellow Swiss bankers 400m dollars at that time in compensation for a broke company with all its facilities near to be scraped.

Jun 28th, 2011 - 06:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Conspiracy Theory:
Jun 28th, 2011 - 08:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Persistent rumors about Cristina's health(she had a fall and injured her head) dictates that she will win the elections hands down.Shortly after winning she will withdraw from public life for health reasons leaving Toyboy Boudou in charge. He will continue to lie about inflation and just about everything else, continue with the model until the model spontaneously implodes - default no 2. At this point Cristina will re-emerge as saviour, firing Toyboy and reintroduce a new model based on taxing farmers completely out of business and of course a new Toyboy- Annibal Marx perhaps?
Pedro, be careful, you can't tell the truth ..... watch your back!
Jun 28th, 2011 - 08:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Don't worry Pedro, the military dictatorship ended long ago.
