Only in a country with a low educated population would they be protesting against market prices.

Gov't has got to get out of the Market and let the people know they're not the backstop to all of their problems.

Which one do you suppose is the leader and which do you suppose is the shit turd hanging onto the other's hairy ass? I guess that the preceding post is the mini me shit turd. He seldom has an original post other than.....yeah, what he says.
I'd be careful chronic, one day YB/Fred and Luci will sit just right and squish that little shit turd of a brain of yours. Maybe he might even shave his ass and then where will you hang out?

Best thing that Maggie did was to take on the unions. If the Argies do not want to work then let them join the millions in poverty.Is it Macris fault that KFC fucked up the economy of Argentina.

May 09th, 2016 - 04:19 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Never underestimate the potential of Peronism and its syndicates to paralyse the country and economy with strikes and paros and looting and worse, to frequently remind that world that in spite of Argenzuela's potential it remains one of the worst places in the world for foreign investors to start a new business. Macri may be the political leader of the present government, but Peronismo runs the country.

May 10th, 2016 - 01:04 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Ok Sybil, please provide another Episode of the Luci loves Yankee” show. Your brilliance for entertainment was by far under estimated.
Dissociative identity disorder (DID), previously known as multiple personality disorder (MPD), is a mental disorder on the dissociative spectrum characterized by the appearance of at least two distinct and relatively enduring identities or dissociated personality states that alternately show in a person's behavior, accompanied by memory impairment for important information not explained by ordinary forgetfulness. These symptoms are not accounted for by substance abuse, seizures, other medical conditions, nor by imaginative play in children. Diagnosis is often difficult as there is considerable comorbidity with other mental disorders. Malingering should be considered if there is possible financial or forensic gain, as well as factitious disorder if help-seeking behavior is prominent.
In my own words ....only, please do not follow this link:

Interesting that canookistan didn't accept help from the ruski water bombers when it was originally offered.

You make a lousy armchair QB ( do you what that is?).
For a start, the local lakes cannot accommodate more water bombers. The Americans have undoubtedly offered their services, but are not making political hay about it.
I am sure that the people in charge know a lot more about fighting fires and the logistics of such operations, than a needy Troll in East Bumfuck Europe somewhere.
Go back to your knitting.
teri/dani OU/troy/thev, the canookis did all that they could do.

Do you remember that little hissy shit-fit you had when I remarked upon your mother not knowing your father?
You can dish it out, personal insults and childish put downs, but you get all righteously indignant when you get it back.
Perhaps voice and vOice aren't so different...
I understand why the colony of Brits on the islands wasting time post here, any South Americans, even those who lost money in a get rich quick scheme investing in defaulted bonds. Why would anyone else from a developed nation bother being here? Do you suppose they, you, them all post comments on the Zimbabwe Daily news as well? The Daily Sabah in Turkey? Interesting choice to post for these self proclaimed intellectuals to further their understanding of the world. It reminds me of the footballer who desires to be a better player so he practices with inferior players and always manages to win. It is an uplifting feeling for the ego, until........he talks to real people.

Do you live on the Falkland Islands, or are you from an undeveloped country?
I would have to say the latter. Why, do you wish to laugh and fun me for my birth place? That seems to be the sport here. I like to browse the news on the Web around the world and the comments here are a disgrace. No worries as I am only passing through. This community in not my liken of a discussion.

I'm counting the relevant posts out of 43.

@44 VoiceOver
May 11th, 2016 - 03:56 am - Link - Report abuse 0I understand your point about relevance.
I take exception to Jaun minimising the Islanders to the status of colonists when they are a distinct society that has lived there for generations and 175 years.
They are self governing.
It is also not for him to say whether people from developed countries should be here.
By his own criteria, only Islanders or undeveloped countries should be on the site.
One has to wonder, is that because he doesn't want anyone from developed countries like the UK refuting the propaganda and disinformation from Argentina and pals?
Juan-Nichols took all the time to create a login just so he could pass through and call himself.... inferior.
May 11th, 2016 - 06:36 am - Link - Report abuse 0Yeah, I'd have to agree with him if that was the only reason he created a login.
There's a Spanish version of this website and it attracts ZERO comments. Juan-Nichols, please feel free to post there and see how interesting it is.
