You are now banned from owning gold in argentina

Last week 3.000 argentineans travelled from Buenos Aires to Las Vegas to assist to the "maravilla" martinez box match against chavez Jr from mexico.
3000 people for a single event travelled more than 5.000 miles. And plane tickets here cost above U$D 1600 to las vegas. And media still talking about that argentineans can't buy dollars or travel to other countries...
Keep in mind this:
Argentina GDP in 2003 u$d 5.000
2012 u$d 55.000

Argetinean exports in 2003 u$d 5.000 mill.
2011 u$d 80.000 mill.

The problem here is that our goverment its trying to take out the dollar from our economic sistem to get economic autonomy from international banks who try to manage argentinean economy putting dollars in it....
That's why argentinean goverment have so much bad media.
And im not part of the goverment or even voted for them.

"counterfeiting" when, in reality, the fed reserve does it all day every day.

I bet the Buenos Aires Jewelry district makes a killing on this law, both coming and going. It is good to be a Jeweler.

retard goverment keeps them on the black market.
they could lower taxes and make more income from them while creating jobs for a change.
totally retard socialist government.

I'm sure you are correct about things on main street, In reality I know little about this situation, but come-on. This is Latin America.

Hehehe!
Argentina has now a record of people travelling arround the world doing turism and you belive this bullshit???
Hahaha!
Aerolineas Argentina today has duplicated their flights to miami and punta del este. But the media still talking about argentinean people cant go out of their own country...
Now I start to understand all the lies about Venezuela. The media will keep liying untill the people who is in the goberment start to do the things that they want...
Argentina economy still growing above 5% per year since 2003,and the next year will grow about 4,4%....
But cause we have a goverment eho is taking away the dollar from our economic systen, they are bad, soooooo bad!!!
Hahaha!

...or another way to spin it is that criminal enterprises do not like competition. So, they do anything they can to stop it be it murder, confiscation or arrest.

In the US printing paper that looks like other paper is a crime. They call it "counterfeiting" when, in reality, the fed reserve does it all day every day.

In this case, they don't want YOU hoarding gold because they are.

In the US they don't want YOU running drugs because the CIA is.

In the US they don't want YOU running guns because the DOJ is.

Its simple: Governments always exempt themselves from what they prohibit. It is because government is the most dangerous thing created by man. Don't fear murder, or poverty or torture, just fear government. It is the root cause of those aforementioned horrors. If there is poverty, government makes it worse. If there is crime, government wants its cut. If there are drugs, guns, war, famine, etc, government wants in on it.

IN FACT!!! If there is not crime, drug smuggling, guns, war, etc, government will start it up because there is no need for government minus those things.

There is little in government that is not self-serving and/or evil.

Less government means less of all the things that you hate and less of all the things that make life miserable.

...unless of course you're part of the 47% that don't pay taxes and the rest of us support. If that is the case, then, FUCK YOU! Get a job.
