    Wow the hypocrisy of Argentina complaining about trade distorting policies by other countries never ceases to amaze me.

    Typical anglo. You like to play with fire but don't like it when others play it on you, huh.

    Stop being so hipocritical in everything you do european/anglo/nippon/yankee foreign fiends. You are the KINGS of proteccionism, subsidies, and market distortions. Every single one of you cheaters.

    And you can't disprove what I just said because all you will do is come back attacking me personally, or saying Argentina is guilty of the same. But actually refuting that the north is the leader in unfree trade, simply can't.

    Simon ROU is FMD free with vaccination. We used to be free without vaccination till Argentina handed us the poisoned chalice containing a disease potion of something they said did not exist

    Last year I went to a dinner hosted by the Ambassador of Argentina and he was quite embarrassed that he couldn't serve beef due to our health standards so instead we had Patagonian Lamb which in my book is better anyway.

    They also hires a couple PUERTO RICANS to dance Tango for us.

    Sure yankeeboy, invited to dinner to valet park?

    So UK economy shrinking (triple dip), US economy shrinking (double-dip), French economy shrinking, Italian econony shrinking, German economy stagnated, Spanish economy in major depression, Brazil economy not recovering...

    WHERE IS THE MIRACLE THAT YOU ALL TALK ABOUT ARGENTINA SHOULD IMITATE?

    hahahahahahahaha

    After the dinner I went over to the dancers and asked them where they were from, when they told me Puerto Rico I almost burst out laughing!

    It is too bad CFK replaced the Ambassador here so quickly with two consecutive retards. The short italian guy was funny and pleasant although I can't remember his name.

    BTW no recession here, if you read more than headlines you would know the slight decrease in GDP was attributed to the decrease in the massive Military spending which I am glad. That pig of a Pentagon needs some belt tightening. All my friends that work there take private jets and helicopters everywhere which is infuriating!

    @2 Tobias

    “Stop being so hipocritical in everything you do european/anglo/nippon/yankee foreign fiends. You are the KINGS of proteccionism, subsidies, and market distortions. Every single one of you cheaters. ”

    I didn't mention any other country, you did. So please list the “protectionism, subsidies and market distortions” that Australia employs.

    You have clearly accused me of being a cheater so now please prove it.

    I'm not attacking you either, but I bet you can't show anything that Argentina doesn't also deploy and conclusively show how a free and open economy like mine has damaged our national wealth and lead to a loss of sovereignty.

    So no attack.

    Several questions.

    The floor is all yours.

    Remember I'm or Nritish, American or any other nationality so try to restrict yourself to our respective countries.
