    If it keeps going at this rate it will be 32.4% for the twelve months, a bit on the low side.

    The photo is a lovely study of two people who are clearly trying NOT to look at each other even though the 'Governor' is supposed to be a close ally of TMBOA.

    I see the turkey neck is back with a vengeance despite TMBOA firing the surgeon who had the temerity to tell her she didn't have thyroid cancer.

    It's all about her, isn't it?

    Rampant inflation+protests and strikes+35% across the board pay increase+treasury prints more money=continued decline of Argentina

    Everyday, day in and day out, year after year, decade after decade, generation after generation Argentinians get a little dumber and a little poorer.

    When will they ever learn?

    TDF is the most subsidised province of Argentina per capita with the least electoral importance.... Take a guess.

    Inflation in the rest of the country is slowing down
    a) Because Fabregas effect is almost over, massive debt issue to withdraw liquid money from the economy
    b) Decline in productivity and employement.

    And its the calmness before the storm

    If Terra Del Fuego according to Argentina, is supposed to rule the Falkland Islands, why is the rate of inflation much less in the Falklands and Earnings per capita higher in the Falklands?
