    Looks like recipe for dictatorship.

        They also put price controls and wage controls in place. Kirchner is a dullard.

          She also thinks now is a great time to build a whole new capital city as if a country who just defaulted, again, can afford it or get credit to build it.

            50 percent inflation in the last year.

              Yeah, that won't happen.


              Also, I can't read the article BK posted, since it's behind a paywall, but the 'articles' he posted are lolwtf made up and/or gross exaggerations. The law is bad, and if it somehow passes vote in congress, it'll be probably taken to court and declared unconstitutional.


              Luckily, we'll be rid of the current government next year.

                Yeah, that's as credible as the figures espoused by the government. Actual rates have been 25-30% for the past couple of years, this year it might reach 40%.

                  Wow. that's so much better.

                  We'll see. I suggest converting Argenchilean assets into some other form of exchange.

                    It's definitely better than the ~3000% we had in '89-'90.

                    In any case, it's kind of sad that you can't even spend 15 seconds to avoid such silly errors.

                        Was that you or a different argenchilean trying to buy USD?

                          It sounds like the lower house of your legislature is expected to pass this bill. I find the behavior of Kirchner rather stunning.
