it seems that “the poor” turn around and attack ck and her gang. the “model” becomes hit by its children.

blast ck away, pay your debts and return to the world markets where they only wait to make business with a reliable big and rich state!
I can't remember where I was reading it but a journalist was interviewing slum kids in BA and asked them what they want to be when they grew up and the majority of them said Picketers for the Gov't.

What a very sad place Argentina is.
Toby, with all of your language skill, even though you are not very smart I am sure you could get a job at a front desk of an Int'l hotel. You should try getting a job instead of inventing this ridiculous personas.
Poor sad little creature
I feel sorry for you
Compensating cops for doing what cops are suppose to do? Hmmm!

I'm willing to bet the looters often wait in line for a check each month. They know who they are, but they support “the model”, and therefore mustn't be persecuted.
@8 CFK knows if she persecutes the looters it´s game over for her. Also persecuting the looters could cause a civil war, there are so many of them and they have the support of Peronists and narcos, and they have more resources than the state itself.
