It's obvious Brazil's industrial sector knows just how effective mercosur is....nada. As PA takes off, gains new members regularly, reach trade accords, begins to prosper.....mercosur languishes in the shows of PA, rolls on it's back and plays turtle......all because thieves run mercosur & co.

Mercosur is reflecting clearly the inefficient DNA of both main countries involved on it. Soon we´ll see a stampede of the small ones (exempting bolivia, ecuador and venezuela of course) that will find their way in PA.

And so the EU/mercosur trade talks stumble on. I wonder how long it will be before someone in mercosur recognises that the stumbling block is argieland. It can't act with integrity and propiety in relation to its own “partners”. When will mercosur recognise that CFK's propensity for buying votes, one way or another, is even more of a “democratic rift” than the one of which they accused Paraguay? What is there in the mercosur “treaties” that would force argieland to tell the truth, keep to agreements and pay its debts? A paramilitary organisation, perhaps, to go in, arrest the government, investigate where all the money goes/has gone, get it back, punish the offenders and establish honest democracy.

I love the idea in the last sentance but WHO is going to be the first to cast a stone when they are ALL corrupt to a greater or lesser extent.

I cannot think of a single country in SA who could honestly take that on, can you?

4 Very much like your comment . Indeed , who will throw the first stone ? Perhaps there could be a surprise in the October congressional elections . From what I read there is a chance , albeit very slim , that they might unite and rob the Government of its majority .
