Feb 16th, 2013 - 09:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Still pretending to be other people?
It really undermines your credibility, a bit like an INDEC statistic, no one believes it.
Have you ever thought about what you post? Have you ever tried to put an actual argument down supporting your point of view? In fact have you ever had an actual thought at all, about anything?
Probably not.
Everytime you resort to your faux identities and start insulting people, we all know that you are a deeply disturbed person, who can't out a coherent sentence together.
Never mind. Maybe your beloved CFK will be lynched by the people who actually live in Argentina, and care enough about the country to actually want to improve it, instead of them having to put up with the current bunch of thieves that call themselves the Argentine government.
Oh and SussieUS, a tip. When you pretend to be someone else, you should at least try to change your grammar and syntax. I mean if you're going to bother impersonating someone , you might as well go the whole hog.
But then again, maybe you just aren't intelligent enough to do it.

Complaining turns Brain to mush
“God is disgusted with complainers. Complaining, murmuring, and negative speaking are all done in the devil's language and this conversation is harmful to those who utter them, as their Brain becomes a slime of mush.”
Why Black men are black, White men are White and Chinese have “slanted” eyes:
“ For example, it is the reason the Chinese have slanted eyes.The group of people who began speaking Chinese at the Tower of Babel could only understand one another. These people liked women with slanted eyes and after some generations they all developed slanted eyes”
Dances with Dinos
“For it is revealed to us by Job that our ancestors domesticated and took economic advantage of these Godly beasts. The longevity of the ancient patriarchs, those close to the line of Adam and Eve, was extended for longer than otherwise possible by the protein they took from these wondrous lizards.”

Nose Candy, you are the Simpleton.
The ball point pen was invented by a Hungarian in 1935, in Europe.
He filed a BRITISH patent in 1938.
He fled Germany to Argentina in 1941.
Argentina gave him citizenship in return for the Intellectual Rights to his invention:
Biro pen
http://www.ideafinder.com/history/inventions/ballpen.htm
http://www.ideafinder.com/history/inventions/ballpen.htm
Swirling within and around the arc of these two lives, Moldova illustrates how citizenship and nationalism can be used in conjunction with patent laws and international/national corporate capitalism to peel away from individual innovators and entrepreneurs their ownership of intellectual property.
For example, Bíró handed over a sizable percentage of his shares to his Argentine partners to free his family from fascist Hungary.

Bíró filed a British patent on 15 June 1938.[5]

Feb 20th, 2013 - 12:32 pm - Link - Report abuse 0My statement stands, in a few more years if some Rgs can escape to the USA it will be like going from a b/w country to color just like in the Wizard of Oz.
You'll probably never know though.
I am sure people who grew up in caves and have never seen the light, think that is all there is to life too.
@89
Feb 20th, 2013 - 03:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Professional claques are also the other sign of complete defeat. Just face it, you guys talk 75% lies about Argentina, I come back with 100% truths about your countries (I will admit I only focus on the negatives)... but you know why that is?
YOU PEOPLE ONLY FOCUS ON THE SUPPOSED NEGATIVES.
Has any of you EVER posted a link of positive news or a positive comment? Never.
That is proof enough that none of you have any intention of fairness, or truth. You are just trolls, like me. Difference is I'm a reactionary troll, you are the pro-active trolls.
If there are positive economic/security/gov't news you should be posting it and leading the way.
Feb 20th, 2013 - 04:19 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Problem is other than natural beauty Argentina doesn't have much to offer.
Did you happen to see the violent riots over tax increases yesterday? The civil disobedience historically start in the Provinces before it moves to BA right?
Anyone else think that a certain Troll is a poor loser??

@92
Feb 20th, 2013 - 08:07 pm - Link - Report abuse 0That is your opinion. Why do you try to impose your opinion in apodictically? I think the USA has not much to offer. Doesn't mean everyone agrees. Difference is I don't try to pass my opinion as the ONLY way of seeing things.
You do, your opinions on Argentina must be seen by all as indisputable or they are brainwashed, losers, etc. You are such an insecure intolerant moron. No self-esteem to tolerate other views.
@91 I post links to plenty ofpositives. The ones that I know about-which are on my side of the world. Here's one for your side: http://www.wired.com/underwire/wp-content/gallery/shinoda-brony-graffiti/Derpy-Hooves.jpg

Feb 20th, 2013 - 08:22 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So you are like a troll just like all the others. When I troll you all cry like crochet ladies that I'm such a mean troll, go away please, we don't like it... lol.
When I talk seriously like at @91, 94, you all still act like trolls. You know that what you say is not true, that no country is 100% negative, and yet you all insist on it.
It proves you never had any intention of honest debate and fairness towards Argentina. So now be men and take my humiliations with a shred of decency.
91 and 94 are serious talk? Give me a break. Your opinion that the USA can has not much to offer is like a piss hole in a snowbank....not worth much. You have never been to the USA in order to form a solid opinion....you have never been to the UK and anywhere out of mendoza, so how can you form real meaningful opinions? AT least we that chant about rgland have been there, lived there and experienced ARgentina. You really call #94 serious talk?
Feb 20th, 2013 - 09:07 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Toby a typical debate with you goes one of two ways:
Feb 20th, 2013 - 10:09 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Me, The electricity is out in BA again
You, No it is not you are a liar
Me, Post link
You, find some obscure or 30 year old link to a snowstorm or natural disaster and claim it is equivalent to the never ending problems in BA
or
You,immediately post a to a story about the USA that has absolutely nothing to do with what we are discussing
Me, I show you how Argentina a similar problem but much much worse and it's never ending
You, get mad, pout, ramble,
It is always the same
As I have said before Argentina is a beautiful. If Pinochet ran it in the 70s I would probably love it and would still be living there.
Unfortunately for you he didn't and you are AGAIN for the 2nd or 3rd time in your young life entering into a swirling vortex of bad economic times. The story repeats itself so often it is easy to predict. Take the price controls, they've been tried many a time in lots of countries, even in yours somethign like 4x in the last 60 years, they never ever ever work. But Moreno thinks he is brilliant can disobey the laws of economics and MILLIONS of people will pay the price and become destitute.
watch and learn
@Yankee and Poppy
Feb 20th, 2013 - 10:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Lets not talk about Toby.
He likes the attention and only says things so that we will engage him in long conversation to refute it.
His outrageous and completely off-topic posts @23, 35, 40, 54 etc are examples.
Just like on a few other threads.
He starts it and cries when he burns his fingers.
Toby is literally ADDICTED to these exchanges on Mercopress, don't you think??
As I said before, he cannot help himself. He punishes himself like a whore on 'crack'.
Once he has been kicked to the curb, for his own good, we should just walk by and ignore him.
What a waste of a young life!

Now that trade surpluses are finally reaching the even mark, deficits are the next step.

2012 shows the continuing trend and effects of the failed policies of the kirchner's. Once they reach that level with deficits, there will be no more dollars to import oil or anything else so desparately needed in ARgentina. Most of old. how will they pay the projected 8,000,000,000 in debt payments this year?

Negative cash flow without access to U$ debt will be something very interesting to watch,
Feb 22nd, 2013 - 05:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I doubt anyone wants to take SOY for Gas or Oil
Hmm maybe Iran.... I don't think the USA will like that too much.
There was a vote of 39 for and 32 against that AMIA vote. The opposition consensus was that is a backdoor avenue to trade oil, and whatnot. Kirchner is not only economically harming Argentina, she is about to put her people, potentially in harms way.
Feb 22nd, 2013 - 06:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I don't think it is a secret why this is so important to get passed now after 20+ yrs. Anyway US State is not happy and may block it or make it a really uncomfortable transaction.
Feb 22nd, 2013 - 07:41 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Talk about getting dragged under by a drowning person
This might really be the last nail in the coffin with the USA and Arg relations
They're pretty dismal now
It would be funny to see the Ambassador sent home over this
