#9 Rubbish, Hitler was broiught to power to keep the left out, brought to power by people like you to avoid a leader like Cristina (it could even have been a woman if Rosa Luxembourg had lived!) I was recently watching the classic “The Nazis: A Warning From History” documentary on the BBC and there was a banker reminiscing about how he and his type had all preferred that the unemployed joined the SA than became Communists, and it was described how more established conservatives brought Hitler to power as the Nazi Party was starting to collapse as they were worried they might miss their chance of having a strong right wing leader...

Nov 01st, 2012 - 02:16 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Lol why would Argentina want to get financial help? didn't any of this ignorant see how much money was stolen from tax payers do to the lack of accountability of both the lenders and the Argentina politician. The biggest problem in Argentina is busyness men trying play politics and politicians not running Argentina like a busyness. A good 50% tax on all imports from nations helping and giving refuge to vulture funds will fix some of the problems we face today. We Argentine support CFK 100% and we look forward to the vulture tax to recover the stolen tax money.
Nov 01st, 2012 - 02:16 pm - Link - Report abuse 0About 45 percent of the grain and soybean fields in Argentina are excessively wet after getting as much as three times the normal rain the past two months, David Streit, the senior forecaster for Commodity Weather Group LLC in Bethesda, Maryland, said in a telephone interview.

As such, re-reading your above comment... :-)
@11 Why dont you read a bit of history before spouting off. Herr Shickelgruber (aka Hitler) ofThe National SOCIALIST party was elected by the German people albeit on a minority vote. Once his henchmen the SA had served thier purpose all its leaders were assinated (Things to come for La Campora?) and the rank and file assimilated into the SS and you know what that lot did - or are you a holocaust denier among other things?
Nov 01st, 2012 - 04:30 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Dear dear Argentina, your country is crumbling before you eyes and you dont even notice it because you are blind. You stupidity will be your downfall, and my uprising. Bueno aires will flourish under the control of the Oriental Republic of Uruguay. Long live uruguay!
Nov 01st, 2012 - 04:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0#18 lol with all the Muslim in the middle east being murdered for oil I don't think we can blame CFK if she is not murdering anyone in the process. I think we should first punish and jail the murderers first, don't you?
Nov 01st, 2012 - 05:57 pm - Link - Report abuse 0#19 we agree the hollycause happened in Europe not Palestine. And Jews should give up WMD or allow for Iran to build a nuclear defence program to protect Iran from the threats of Israel and their WMD.
#20 if you start the uprising at the US or UK embassy with a Von fire I am sure it will be a successful riot. But if you decided to trash our country and attack CFK I will pay a reward for your lifeless body.
#12 Who me? Will you dispute the facts I offered on the Nazis?

Nov 01st, 2012 - 06:04 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Josh Rosner of Graham Fisher is director, investment analysts in New York. A year ago he was here and predicted to come, in six months, a slowdown in the economy. Now again, to give a talk at a seminar, and says the country is at risk of “an internal default . ” So, he adds, “do not look at what happened in 2001, but what happened in 1989.”
“The window of opportunity is closing Argentina , in six months will be completely closed-notes-Rosner, if they do not sign, the country will enter a dead end . ” To the economist, the default decisions are more political than economic . He says that if public spending to sustain consumption continues to grow, while worsening the fiscal, and the government is financed more issue (which drives inflation) and public resources as the Central Bank and the ANSeS, the output will be traumatic. “The government still has time to give a signal to sit down and talk with the IMF, the Paris Club, the ICSID ... Discuss signal is enough , ”he adds. That way, it would open the door to external financing to avoid putting pressure situation like today involve the internal funding sources that appeals to the Treasury. Is that funding they see as a trap . “In 2001, the debt was external. But in 1989, there was a predominance of domestic debt and insolvency crisis ended in a devaluation of 34.5%. ”

Oh here it is, mention the Muslims, WMD etc... It doesn't work PH.
Face it Argentina is standing on a cliff looking down into the abyss of financial ruin. Perhaps you should be thankful that you live in Canada.
BK - to add to what others have said. Hitler was a national socialist, hence the term NAZI (Nationalsozialist) which meant the National Socialist German Workers Party.
Peronism, which CFK has admitted that she is, is based on the National Socialism model used by the Nazi's, including their own version of the Hitler Youth, La Campora.
The teaching methods in Argentine schools is also based on the Nazi model, including the matra that a lie told often enough must eventually become the truth.
You are either very short sighted or stupid if you can't see that.
I suppose the only good thing about Argentine Nazism, the Peronists, is that they haven't got the military might to do what their inflated ego's want them to.

Nov 01st, 2012 - 06:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0#24 it doesn't work with you because you are more interested in murdering innocent Muslims women and children for oil then fixing Argentina's issues, but I am from Argentina and I rather waste time trying to help innocent Muslims women and children then poisoning my mind with UK and US propaganda and lies about WMD or CIA terrorists.
Nov 01st, 2012 - 06:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I rather have a CFK who steal money then giving refuge to a child molesters and murderers. Then again I am an Argentine, We know where murderers and child molesters come from, don't we #24?
Does anyone love menem as much as the UK and USA did ?.. menem was the darling of the free market and also the creator of the 2001 theft from the Argentine people, let never again allow for a Argentina president take money on Argentina's behalf, we demand a national bank working with our currency or pay 50% taxes for using foreign currency in Argentina.
#24 listen to #25 because that is how all Argentines feel about the english culture, all we need is the weapons and we would be hunting the English as the terrorists hunted Gaddafi.

Yeah, sure!!
If people's life's were not involved it would almost be comical in which the manner that kirchner continues to run her own coutry into the ground, With dignity and freedom of course. It is one thing for the people not able to changes things with such deeply imbedded corruption; it is entirely another matter that the politicians cannot see their own country being driven off the cliff at breakneck speed. More so than the people, the blame train can be squarely placed in central circus known as the lower house and the senate. They should pat themselves on the back. They can sit there blaming everything on the worlds woes........but as the world starts passing them by, we will hear .....WTF....from down south amigos.

Anyone else can understand that a product produced at
30 pesos when 1 US dollar was 3 pesos it costs 10 U$S
when the real inflation of 25% has increased the cost to
80 pesos and 1 U$S is 4.50 pesos, the cost is now 18 U$S
and it can't be sold, simply because it has become more expensive that competing products from other countries.
- and Peabrained-Hunter, living in Canada has removed you from the fact that most import to Argentina ALREADY IS taxed by 50%.
Tell me, Peabrained-Hunter, can other countries retaliate and raise the tariff to 50% on Argentine products?

Hopefully some of these nations supply engines, weapons and spare parts for your rusting, ancient armed forces, so why don't you do us all a favour and put a 100% import tax or a 150% import tax on them?
No, really mess up your country put a 500% tax on imports and see what happens.
Cause and efffect.
