I think Argentina would be an excellent candidate for complete and total subjugation by a superior economic power. You have abundant natural resources combined with an idiotic and easily led populace. It would make a great 51st state and could be turned into an ideal vacation destination. I envision a theme park packed with paraguayan prostitutes. If you have ever been to Bariloche you could see the potential for an austral Aspen. Cocaine could be easily imported from neighboring Bolivia.

Oh well, maybe next time!

Could be they (argie gov idiots) are doing something stupid today. In the course of my work I check a lot of local sites (life is hard) and every other escort related site is down today. Local forum, Baires girls, Playt, EsmeraldaVIP, lolitas center, soloindies. Has anybody seen any closed PV's today?
How stupid would it be to close these businesses down?

Though things are changing in this country. Just check what happened in Cordoba. Also Susana Trimarco, mother of disappeared Marita Veron has been nominated for the Nobel Prize for Peace due to her struggle against human trafficking. This will certainly have an impact on clubs and privados. Read: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marita_Veron[/url]

You're still better off with Democrats when it comes to social freedoms; Republicans will always be stronger on religion and traditional family.

Harry Reid insn't the only Democrat with egg on his face, Former (D-NY) Governor Spitzer made the laws tougher on Johns in NY State, but was caught being a John himself.
The guys who really run a lot of things in Nevada are the sheriffs and Reid is just sucking up to them. Remember, ten years ago or whatever it was, Nevada was like North Dakota is now. Any idiot could get a job. So there are too many bubbles and booms and busts in these economies that overheat and freeze up, like Nevada and North Dakota. That is where economic tools can come in handy to smooth things out, and that is where the Reps and Libs get it wrong. We have a chance for a nice long expansion here, and yes I am putting my money where my mouth is on that. Reps, Libs, Dems, whoever is in charge, I hope they understand international economics or hire someone who does. I'm bullish on America right now. Some of that is we are more innovative and the rest is a lot of countries are more stupid.

Democrats and, to a lesser extent, Republicans keep growing government. In the short run that stimulates the economy, and perhaps it's a good idea during a recession. In the longer run it results in slower growth. I'm putting my money where my mouth is too, and it goes into equities in countries where government isn't crowding out the private sector. The USA and Argentina aren't among those.
The marginal income tax rates on businesses in countries where I buy stocks are 25% or less. In the USA it ranges from 35% to 45% on corporations, depending on the state. On unincorporated businesses, it will range from 42.5% to 55.8% after January 1, 2013, assuming Obama gets his way. Yes, there are special write offs and tax credits that will bring the effective rates in the USA down for some businesses. That's a problem though. We need tax reform to bring down rates and put all businesses on a level playing field. Tell that to Obama though. He's dead set on doing the opposite, either because he believes it will score brownie points for Democrats or because he's stupid.

I thought that was the silver lining when Obama and Congressional Democrats were elected in 2008. Boy did I turn out to be wrong. They've done nothing to improve civil liberties, and in certain areas, like enforcement of drug laws, made things worse.
