With the Peronists in charge of all branches of government watch out. You will have high inflation, currency devaluation, increasing totalitarianism and more government theft of resources. Anyone with a brain (unless he is part of the Peronist mafia) has moved his assets outside the country. The smart ones are seeking citizenships outside the country.

So the government parties and the opposition parties are one and the same !
No wonder the government got re-elected then.

With nobody to hold the Government to account, all we can say say is “Long Live The Status Quo!”

And one of the shameful and sad parts of this, is that even when the opposition controlled the congress, they could not get together to really oppose the CFK government, but spent their time infighting as to which party had the “biggest one”.
