[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Argentina was never able to recover from Peron.

Really sad as it is one of those countries that has everything and they are busy making it into nothing.

They were doing pretty well back when I started going there regularly (around 1998). Then Kirchner (first Nestor, then later his wife) took over in 2003. They put the socialist touch on, with a big dose of corruption.

Nestor died, and Cristina is fighting to stay out of prison. The current president, Macri is even worse.

Too bad... I really liked the country. Sadly, it's heading the same path as Venezuela.

“Really sad as it is one of those countries that has everything and they are busy making it into nothing.”

That sounds a little too familiar ...
