  • I got it already, but what country exactly? Surely, is not from Cuba for example.

    • Probably not, since I'm posting on the internet relatively regularly, and have voiced my opinion freely.


      Argentina
      Indifference is Bliss

      • Then you have to realize that there are other countries besides Argentina, which belongs to the Latin America and opinion about and support to Liberation theology there might differ.

        • And as for your sarcasm, haven't you recently declared your second default in a decade recently?

            There's two countries more left wing than argentina in Latin America ATM, Venezuela and Cuba. I wouldn't say they are pinnacles of progress.

            If you're trying to convince me that my country is a mess, you're 29 years too late. Incidentally, the far left (communists among them) and far right (catholics among them) have most of the blame.

              However, they don't default. And compared to Argentina have their own pro and cons.
              Actually, it's news to me that Argentina is left-wing, esp. as you have rated it third among the lefties in Latin America. What about Bolivia? Is it fourth, then?

              I was referring to your sarcasm about an Argentinian being superior and more free, compared to Cuban.

              • Do you have free healthcare and education in Argentina?

                • How free education could be a brake for progress?

                      Venezuela has oil money, and cuba doesn't even have access to international credit AFAIK.

                      However, Venezuela is currently rationing toilet paper, and it's government is currently studying measures to further ration other products. For a country with the largest proven oil and gas reserves in the world, that's pretty bad.

                      I'll leave the country where engineers work pumping gas for tourists for the dollar tips aside.

                      We're still (marginally) better. Despite our government's best efforts.

                      That's a good question. Bolivia is pretty much a ****hole. It could rank third, I don't kow. They've been pretty quiet for a while.

                      An argentinian? Superior? lol, I didn't say that.
                      More free? Definitely. At least my country isn't censoring the internet.

                        If you ignore 1982, 1990, 1997, 1998 and 2004, then Venezuela hasn't defaulted since the 19th Century.

                              Technically, yes.

                              If done right? It couldn't. Over here, among the first things a family pays for after basic necessities are covered is private school for their kids.

                                My bad, it appears they actually defaulted this year. Selectively defaulting on domestic debt.
