    “ To get the most favorable terms for Argentina, it is necessary to extend the legal jurisdiction of the transaction to state and federal courts in New York City and London, the decree said.”

    Does that sound familiar?

    Same arrangement that Argentina agreed to before in order to issue bonds.

    Then the K's and trolls, Enrique, Thinkvoice, and others denied the NY courts had jurisdiction, personally insulted the Judge and officials, refused to comply, and accused the lenders of victimizing Argentina.

    “...personally insulted the Judge and officials...”

    Ohhhh the outrage! Somebody dared to call Honourable Judge Thomas Griesa a vultures' helper!

    In total disregard of recent history, Macri is putting again Argentina in the hands of shady individuals as Griesa. The story omits the fact that Macri has placed Argentina's natural resources as guarantee of the loans, meaning creditors will be ready to put their hands on Vaca Muerta and its huge oil and gas deposits in case of non-payment--something Macri is running towards with light speed.

    Troy does not understand much of that--he's just mad that Think, Voice and myself “refused to comply and accused the lenders...”

    Right on, Troy. Right on.
