Jun 04th, 2012 - 10:07 am - Link - Report abuse 0Eva Braun or who? One's dictator's wife is as good as any other.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 10:23 am - Link - Report abuse 0On a five peso note eh? guess there's not much respect for Peron in the Argie mint then, what with printing her photo on what is effectively toilet paper.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 10:58 am - Link - Report abuse 0...whereas the mass murder of the native peoples is portrayed on the 100 note. Shows their priorities!
Jun 04th, 2012 - 11:30 am - Link - Report abuse 0I don't like the idea of having bills printed with the face of a woman whose husband and probably she too had deals with the nazis.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 11:32 am - Link - Report abuse 0This is proof that the Montoneros have successfully seized control of this country and its now officially to late. :/
Doom on.
“By 1946, the first wave of defeated fascists was settling into new Argentine homes. The country also was rife with rumors that the thankful Nazis had begun to repay Peron by bankrolling his campaign for the presidency, which he won with his stunning wife at his side.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 11:56 am - Link - Report abuse 0In 1947, Peron was living in Argentina's presidential palace and was hearing pleas from thousands of other Nazis desperate to flee Europe. The stage was set for one of the most troubling boat-lifts in human history.
The archival records reveal that Eva Peron stepped forward to serve as Gen. Peron's personal emissary to this Nazi underground”
I believe she was also a 'bit of a goer' as they used to say.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 12:57 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It's no wonder The Mad Bitch of Argentina wants her on a banknote - it makes her look good. Mmmm, I don't think anybody / anything could make the TMBA look good.
Well Evita was a hooker to begin with, so calling her a nazi whore is actually factually and not derogatory or slanderous at all.

@9 Hmmmm. Kind of true but more like she used her assets to get on in life - like so many women, especially in the days before equality laws. She came from a poor, illegitimate background in a time when social mobility was almost impossible, so she reinvented herself. She also went into the acting profession which, unlike today, was pretty much on a par with criminals and prostitutes in the social structure for many centuries.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 01:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Eva was a hustler (I have met so many in SoAM) and did whatever she needed to do to get on in life. She was lucky she hit the jackpot. Juan was lucky too because she added some glamour to an otherwise bland politician.
I have some respect for her pushing women's issues when they had no rights but the way she ruthlessly exploited the very people she claimed to represent leaves me cold. I guess power and wealth can turned the head of someone who was poor and powerless for most of her life. Just sayin'. : )
10: I've seen these before, they're pretty cool :)
Jun 04th, 2012 - 01:49 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Why not celebrate a woman that started a movement based on populism and created the prosperity that only Argentine's elected criminals, I mean officals experience. Gotta love a economic model based on closed markets, runaway inflation, fabricated economic indicators. When this house of cards fall, there will be no rebuilding. And as the people took the pots to the streets in Buenos Aires, the government managed to repress this from being televised. VIVA PERONISM!!!
Jun 04th, 2012 - 01:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Strange they are picking the $5 and not the $500 that is coming out soon.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 02:19 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Great idea, if it was Britain I'm sure she'd be on a note already =) Hope Cristina is on a note soon, though as I hope she stays President for a long time the logical next step would probably be Nestor =)

Jun 04th, 2012 - 03:16 pm - Link - Report abuse 0#16 I hope Cristina's great contribution makes her the exception and they honour her with a banknote while she is still alive, perhaps even still in power. A bit like Elizabeth II =)
Jun 04th, 2012 - 03:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 017. She will be leaving by helicopter after 1 extended black out.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 03:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Lots of people are going to be running electric heaters this week.
Wait until the factory workers are unemployed for a couple weeks because there isn't any nat gas.
I like Argentina, I despise the government. I hope blackouts happen and becomes the impetus for the people to rise up and finally bury Peronism along with CFK and her corrupt croonies.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 03:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@19 Sums up Mr & Mrs Peron to a tee.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 04:02 pm - Link - Report abuse 016 yankeeboy “Considering they only put dead people on bank notes I hope CFK is there soon too”
Jun 04th, 2012 - 04:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Fred, I know you are getting frustated waiting for decades for the Argentina “collapse”, however making such a suggestion can get you in trouble in Rhode Island Ave. and here as well.
Fred, you sound like Ted.

Yeah that was bit harsh, I apologize! it was just to play with The BK nuttiness.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 04:47 pm - Link - Report abuse 014 yankeeboy (#) It is rumoured that Nestor's head will be on the $500
Jun 04th, 2012 - 06:46 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Yankeeboy......the Argentine collapse is emminent.......perhaps not toally but to levels never seen since the Junta. The only reason the militray lost power was becasue they tried to take an island they had no right to and lost. Now, Lady Botox, aka CFK is putting to to Argentine people, though she is taking care of herself before she flees. A country can't have international trade one way, denying it's people to purchase the international standard(US dollar), fabraicate econimic indicators, default on worldwide debt, takeover private industries, control and restrict it's media and expect to endure. Argentina, a once great country is nothing more than a shell of itself. Britain does it a favor by ignoring her, they already spanked her once, twice would be an insult.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 07:02 pm - Link - Report abuse 0To ignore implies by natural deduction a prior state of engament? When have Argentina and the UK engaged since 1982? The UK has nothing to offer Argentina and viceversa.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 07:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0we offer you everything,
Jun 04th, 2012 - 07:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0but like all spoilt children, you stamp your feet and ignore all offers of help
is this not true .
I wasn't aware we needed help. So if we “ignored” it, its probably a misinterpretation on your part.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 07:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0And even if we did need help, I would never accept it. If an Earthquake hit Mendoza, which someday it will, I would refuse all foreign aid (me personally). The worst feeling in the world is to have to own foreigners anything, particularly gratitude. Never.
you, will proberbly not live to recieve any help
Jun 04th, 2012 - 08:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Oh I will live, I'm a survivor.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 08:20 pm - Link - Report abuse 0US EU EK provide a LOT of foreign aid to Argentina. You need it and grovel for it yearly. Although I think EU UK are shutting theirs off next year and USA will be right behind them.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 08:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0No foreign aid to Argentina. Fact.

A lot comes through World Bank but where do you think they get it from? I think WB funds your child allowance you all crow about...gonna be hard to pay that when we shut it down because you don't pay your judgments.
I think yankeeboy is trying to fool me... I really doubt he would engage in such facile self-humilliation??
Jun 04th, 2012 - 09:04 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I mean... what are we going to do as a nation without the LOTS of foreign aid? 8 million from the USA and 6 million from EU... there goes our USS 60 billion budget or whatever it is today.
I can't remember the last time the World Bank loaned Argentina, since we payed them and the IMF off in 2005.
Any more lies I need to correct?
Take your 8 million and get out of my sight.

Jun 04th, 2012 - 09:11 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Are you seriously that un-informed about your country's finances?
CFK is terrified that the next WB disbursement will be held it actually may bankrupt your country. BCRA fund sare not the 47B they are telling everyone they are.
You are scrambling to find all banks and institutions... you are running out of them.
Jun 04th, 2012 - 09:19 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So, LOANS are AID... since when? Aid implies giving without conditions and not necessarily any expectation of requittal. Loans are granted after negotiations (like going to a bank), with terms of full repayment plus interest in X period of time.
So those 13 billion, as clearly indicated by the graphs in your link, ain't aid.
If lending money is aid, then you my friend are nothing but a poor helpless recipient of Chinese, Japanese, middle eastern aid... and any others that lend to your government to keep it afloat (for now). That's then aid too.
If you need any more schooling by me, by all means, I can continue the lesson.
35. Lending at below market rate is Aid .
Jun 04th, 2012 - 09:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0WB's mission is to alleviate poverty through loan and grants to poor countries. Not like IDB ( development) or IMF ( currency/trade)
You need to be schooled you are a dimwit when it comes to your own country's finances.
“jabón Perón evita la regregada” was a popular saying back then, at least in Uruguay. my father said Perón used to give away sider and pannettone for xmas, and they hadn't even invented The Cámpora-Maffia yet. about 'nazis' and Argentina. what's the big deal about the nazis being shipped to Argentina? they did the same in the US ( Von Braun and those who went right into the intelligence agencies to create the CIA, etc.) and I'm sure the Brits did just the same. Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands is a former SS and that was no obstacle to create Bilderberg, was it? he was a friend of Prince Phillip's and they created the WWF together to bring happiness to all the nerds on Earth. also the nazis as the bolshevics rose to power thanks to british american financing in the first place (Bush, Rothschild, etc.) as well as Thyssen. why don't you anglosaxons like them? you and them are one people, you ought to love one another.
