Does she have liver problems? Her face is the same colour as the little smiley face on the flag whereas her neck is pink. Either that, or I wouldn't trust her with Dale Winton's fake-tan.
May 09th, 2013 - 07:38 am - Link - Report abuse 0@4 She has a lot of problems balancing her medication. You can see some days she is really puffy and swollen. Apparently her physical health has deteriorated considerably of late.

May 09th, 2013 - 01:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The very people they are asking to buy these bonds are the same people who have been trying to keep their cash out of the system so that the gov can't get their hands on it. I would be very suprised if anyone took this up. Those who do are obviously not overly endowed in the brain department. $160bn...in your fcuking dreams

@6 Prove it. Bring your savings here, get a job here, and work for your money to be stolen either by the government, or some violent baboon that collects a portion of that money for doing nothing.
May 09th, 2013 - 03:30 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Maybe you can even join La Campora, if they don't stab you to death because of your British accent.
But you're just a delusional coward that hasn't left that comfortable basement in the UK, where you at least there is far more economic freedom.
The only dollar savings I have is a $1 strip club note from a strip club in New Zealand. I would not give it to Ms Kirchner directly, however British_Kirchnerist is welcome to it if he wishes to stuff it in her garter belt
May 09th, 2013 - 03:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Luckily I live in a country that isn't so FUBARd that you have to save in a foreing currency.

Hell yeah!
Ah and 4% binannually on the value of the dollar. How can the gov afford to borrow at that rate? Thats like 38% test rate, when Greece is chafing at 4%, and the U.S. is at 0%.

@Raul ! they seek 1 million signatures doesn't mean they have 1 million signatures, Maybe they should concentraite on internal affairs and have a petition, a motion of no confidence in the CFK government ! I would imagine a much larger number exceeding your little Malvinas group....
May 09th, 2013 - 05:28 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@Ayayay (#21) - 4% bi-annual: the 4% annual dividends are paid every 6 months.
May 09th, 2013 - 05:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Even if the rate was 4% every 6 months, I would still avoid it like something that needs avoiding.
So ... is KFC repatriating the £520 million that she and Nestor made out of the sale of YPF and is Tubby Maximo repatriating the billions that went mission from Aerolingus Argentinas? Is Killacough repatriating all the money he uses to pay his mortgage?

So, they've ruined the economy with a repetition of peronist ruin and now they want the dollars people have bought to protect themselves from ruin, so they can ruin some more.
May 09th, 2013 - 09:17 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Why aren't they repatriating their own money? Maximo has $2.7 billion hidden away and if you add KFC's $520mil it comes to nearly $3.4billion that they can exchange for bonds to invest in strategic areas like La Campora.
Thanks Uncle B. Ok, so compounded bi-annually, plus rate of inflation last year was 25.6 percent..then wouldn't this objectively be considered at least 29.6 percento interest?
May 09th, 2013 - 11:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0And didn't they try to give super high interest rates last time just before...
anyway, i am really happy the usa is doing good.
Are you sure it does not mean 2% paid every 6 months,which of course is less than 4% annually.
