  1. These were the consequences of continuing with the failed recipes of
    IMF. The IMF only cares about collecting their usurious interest and nothing else.

  2. LA ASIGNACION POR HIJO LOGRO UNA FUERTE CAIDA DE LA INDIGENCIA Y DE LA DESIGUALDAD DE INGRESOS
    Línea de partida para combatir la pobreza

    El Conicet y otros institutos presentaron los resultados de la primera investigación exhaustiva sobre el impacto de la AUH entre los sectores vulnerables. La indigencia bajó hasta 70 por ciento, la pobreza hasta 30 y mejoraron los índices de equidad. Los desafíos.

  3. now the situation is totally different…
    now the poor people are less than 20%, and the very poor, less than 10%…

  4. @JasperLee23 You are a stupid person

    Oh is that so? Well let me tell you about “experience” My father has a ranch in Cordoba! nice try though! Oh so much hate for the USA, but yet it’s the most diverse Nation in the world. People flock from all over the world, legally and illegally to have a piece of the American Dream…. Take your ignorance else where!

  6. @horta85 Well Ive been there…like I said in 2008. Un like you! I speak from experience.
    But if you WATCH the video you can also see what I mean.
    A typical American…thick as shit and ignorant. But then I also here that the Southern states of America that were hit by the hurricanes have still not been rebuilt! bahahaha. I would not visit US if I was offered payment!

  7. @JasperLee23
    Your simply a idiot then! Argentina is ranked as one of the highest places to visit. Glad you enjoy being the Britts bitch!

  8. Argentina is a shit hole. I went thre with my brother in 2008. Personally I do not like the people. Very self opinionated and racist.
    Im south african…I love Britain and I love the British influence in my country!

    oh yeah and the Falklands are British!

    I’ve only been preparing for two years. Maybe too late. The trees I had bearing fruit are flowering but not bearing fruit. We have to import our bees and few lady bugs left. Last year the corn I had growing died once the nearby farms were sprayed. I was beginning to think I was a nut (and so did other people) until I started digging into things.

  10. @janetcat , Been “Prepping” for it for 5 years now LOL

    It is hard to see everything in the healthcare bill but I think rummage sales will also be taxed, any hobbies are taxed with no tax write offs. I got involved because of my 2nd mortgage but I’ve never seen anything like what is going on and people are ignoring it.

  12. @mkmason2002
    I saw this on the long Census form. People booed me. But it is real. These companies have also bought up the water rights in nations, so much so, they cannot even keep rain water. My 2nd mortgage is written so I cannot grow food for myself. People are being fed right now but once the government handout goes, they’ll be hungry.

  13. @siobhShaft IF the gov. allows you to grow your own food. There is a bill that was introduced by Bush that controls all organic farms, the gov. now considers a backyard garden an organic farm and it can be outlawed if we don’t follow CODEX ALIMENTAREOUS. {misspelled}

  14. @SniperViper1000 The problem is we are about to see in 2010 a food crisis in America. Check out youtube. The US has a mere 3 weeks reserves. Also Bush introduced a bill making an organic farm include backyard gardens which would be under the gov. control and could be outlawed.

  15. @SniperViper1000 Problem is, the world is about to see a famine, including the US. Check out videos on the 2010 food crisis. Also videos of the US sending hundreds of train cars of wheat to China to try & keep them from demanding their loans be returned. The supposed storehouse of US food is a 3 week supply down from a 4 mo. supply.

  16. @doverlin No, the seed vault was created by and for the Bilderberg group. A small group of billionaires who run the New World Order. Check out videos on the Federal Reserve bankers and 10 central banks. They are creating this worldwide collapse. See the Georgia monument. There plan is to let us eat the chemically laced foods and then when 6 billion are dead in nuclear war, famines {which they created} and disease they can emerge from the D.U.M.B. and start the world again.

  17. Do you suppose this is why the seed vault was created? Knowing that one day, viable self sustaining crops would be a thing of the past?

    Imagine the entire world producing crops with terminator seeds. The next year, Monsanto supplies defective seeds that do not produce any crops (this happened already in Africa). By the time it was realized, it would be too late for that years crop. Mass starvation would ensue.

  18. @chimpanchu That is ironic…Argentina means “silvery”…at one time it must have been the Land of Silver. Yes, I think they would gladly take silver in exchange in their markets. Under these conditions, who wouldn’t?

  19. Take a good look United States, this horror is about to befall on you!

  20. Too bad the Government is getting involved. They will eventually ruin it. The model is excellent though.

  21. I wonder if they accept silver coins for barter? Do they know the value of gold/silver?

  22. It’s called the bartering system. Ex: If you work for me i’ll supply you with food water and shelter or i’ll give you 6 eggs for a loaf of bread.

  23. I’m posting your page on other sites

  24. thanks ; )

  25. @siobhShaft IF you can get the seeds, they cost money. Monsanto the world’s leading seed supplier has a patent on their genetically modified {engineered} seeds, GMO’s, they produce plants but the seeds in those plants are dead, they will not reproduce new plants, they call it terminator seeds. This makes nation’s dependent on Monsanto to buy annual seeds. Check out Monsanto for info on the coming Monsanto produced famine.
    Greedy evil bast—–!!!
