Mar 14th, 2016 - 12:28 am - Link - Report abuse 0I don't think there is another default coming up. Investors much prefer the truth because then they can factor that into their calculations.
Mar 14th, 2016 - 05:00 am - Link - Report abuse 0This government is at least telling the truth and willing to tackle issues as they occur instead of kicking the can down the road. I expect the finances to look dismal this year as the full facts of CFK's last year in power finally flow through.
I will be interested to see revised statistics going back the last few years when they are done as they will show the lack of growth and the full cost of inflation.

Mar 14th, 2016 - 10:05 am - Link - Report abuse 0As if anyone believes the British are credible in anything.
Did cfk and her pet dog dannyboy really think they would be able to cover this up if they had won the election? Jesus....................
Mar 14th, 2016 - 11:00 am - Link - Report abuse 0That was 2015, wait until they audit the rest of the K decade in power. Their GDP number is going to plummet, poverty skyrocket, etc etc etc.
Mar 14th, 2016 - 11:25 am - Link - Report abuse 0Surprised the lot of them haven't been put under protective custody yet.
@3 ... I don't think there is another default coming up...
Mar 14th, 2016 - 12:46 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Well, then maybe just higher deficits, hyperinflation, major currency devaluation, recession, growing unemployment, civil disturbances, and another significant nonpayment event.... other than that the economy here is looking just rosy.
Amazing such an abject failure as Kick is still trying to preserve the lie he was complicit in creating. He should be jailed..
Mar 14th, 2016 - 12:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Does Kickitoff have ANY credibility with anyone other that the K's, I don't think so.
Mar 14th, 2016 - 05:30 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It was obvious that Bug Eye only dished INDEC so he could write the figures for himself and that worked only with the stupid 15M K's and Peronistas.
As long as the Macri government continues to play by the international 'book' they will be supported financially.
I just wish he was strong enough to knock the stupidity of the Malvinas on the head as well. He could start by removing it and The RCCunts from the constitution.
Hey D.......don't you miss home? The North End called me all weekend long.....lol
