This past 13 August, the Open, Simultaneous and Obligatory Primary Elections (PASO) were held, a kind of election where all political forces are obliged to participate in order to elect or ratify their candidates.
And you know what? Their results have been a real bombshell. Argentines have said enough is enough. Javier Milei, the libertarian outsider who came to Argentine politics in 2019 has won, against all odds, this particular election. And not only that, Peronism was relegated to third place. One way or another, Argentina is heading towards a historic change.
But what explains the Peronist debacle, why Alberto Fernández's government became so unpopular, what this political tsunami could mean for Argentina, and will Javier Milei become the new president of the republic? In this video we tell you all the details.

"A political class that is sinking this country." Words that apply world wide.
Oh yeah get rid of government. We don't need police, we don't need any institutions. Just let rich people enslave everyone without any resistance. It's funny that 'libertarians' think that will be better
Yeah...
Only to the left.
@@emisosa wrote, _"Only to the left."_
Wrong. Both the left and the right have serious problems. Pretending that one is 'good' and the other 'bad' is a pinnacle of deliberate ignorance.
People who sincerely want to change things for the better don't continue playing the 'left vs right' game. They want to take the very best parts of the right and the left and put them together into something that's genuinely better than either side is by itself. People who don't want to combine the best of both worlds are clueless bigots.
Including (specially) himself
That would be one of the biggest 180 degree turn arounds in political history if he is elected!
It should be obv now that the status quo politicians have done nothing in the past 3 decades but ruin the currency, and thus lives, of the lower class whilst lining their own pockets
Nah, he has little support in the parliament/senate to get things done

You have to choose between 3 options
Milei which you can compare his politics to those of the founding fathers of the united states
Massa which is lite a mentally impaired version of benito mussolini and that's saying a lot
Bullrich a self called conservative with dubious degrees that happened to be a far left terrorist back in the day

Seems like the world is becoming tired of their country’s career politicians and wants an outsider.
It does seem that way. However, what the world seems not to understand is that government isn't actually necessary for a society to run well. And this mindset is what keeps politics buried in corruption. Until people are tired of government overall, they will continue to hope that some outsider will fix things. It isn't possible. The world's politics are woven together. No country is operating completely alone. Is decisions are, in large measure, made with the effects that those decisions have upon other nations. And all of these separate nations are tied together in their common reliance upon central banks for economic stability.
No outsider is going to be able to withstand the world's economic pressures. And if ever someone came along who persisted in trying, that person would almost certainly die in some freak accident like a plane crash. That, in a nutshell, is how the world works... how politics works... how central banks work. So, with all that in mind, the conclusion is inarguable: there will be no substantial political reform that happens with the people's well-being being the primary reason for change. Everything revolves around the economy, and the international politics that are necessary to keep the economy running _for the benefit of those in power._
It's a sad conclusion to entertain, but as far as I can tell, there isn't another conclusion with more evidence and history to support it.
The world during the last century: So, how much political and economic instability do you want?
Argentina: YES
The status quo has continually failed the people of Argentina. What do they have to lose by choosing an alternative?
We can loose more mental health....

I dont know.. decades of womens rights? The fight against climate change? Sane political policies? Take your pick.
This guy is nothing different, he’s alternative in the optics and pretty much the status quo since if will be elected through “status quo” procedures. People are looking for the alternative but not really..alternative is something totally different..not another guy sitting on the same chair…we all know what happens…
I dont know. Maybe freedom, rule of law, democracy, human rights, especially women's right to abortion? The guy is far-right religious fanatic.
Argentina is a wonderful country! I visited earlier this year and had a wonderful time. It's truly a shame that their government is inept at managing the economy, otherwise, it would be on par with United States in many ways.

Unless the institutions which governs Argentina are radically altered it doesn't matter who they put in the seat of the presidency
I only hope that whoever has the presidency of Argentina recognizes this fact and try their best to promote governmental institutions which are more resistant to corruption and promoting better financial responsibility
That's exactly why they are proposing a plan to move the state aside from institutions. Also, we'll have to eradicate the Peronism cancer that infested almost every institution for generations. Damn, it will be difficult, those scums will set the country on fire to prevent it, but the fight will be worth.
that is the sweet spot of Milei, he really wants to change everything. We are very excited for him.
@@marianomedina07 I hope he can deliver, it's hard to fight against an entrenched system of corruption sometimes it can take decades
Heck Argentina took over 50 years to free itself from dictator military rule since the GOU first took power away from the civilian government in 1943
I'm hopeful for you Argentina but also cautious
A while back, Milei presented a team of hundreds of people he'd pick to be in charge of the different argentinian institutions. Out of all of them, only 3 have worked in a government institution before. Everyone else is a worker in the private sector.

@@marcopolo4350???

@@shhwinner6663They don't need a dictator like in El Salvador.
It is wild how peronismo has held the country basically back for a century 😢
Latin America's politicians all know that real institutional reform is too difficult and boring to run on. But blaming the big bad USA for everything sounds much sexier and requires little to no critical thinking.
peronismo wasn't in power basically until the 90s. Before it was basically military juntas.
They haven't "held" anything, the people kept voting for them, THAT'S the scary part.
@@greyghost2492 That's one of the major failures of democracy: a president who knows he/she only has 8 years at hand has little incentive to plan/build anything beyond that, which is why politicians keep resorting to flashy/short term solutions that don't really address the deeper issues.
@@greyghost2492 it's almost like a Psyop by the CIA, the politicians who offer no solutions and blame the US just keep their countries from developing while the Latin American politicians thrive in the corruption as they get votes....
The most notheworthy thing about Milei is how he came in first even with the media, and all the oposition politicians bribes and campaing against him, but he won the people by speaking his heart out without reading a speech, even if he was controversial. He doesn't go outside without a bulletproof vest and I can see why. I hope he doesn't change and keeps to his word. Politicians are afraid to lose their exaggerated revenue and power. But for us he really represents the drain of the people.
What bribes? Do you have any evidence besides what Milei says? What media campaing against him?? He is the most interviewed candidate out there, because his outrageous ideas are good for TV ratings. He started out as a comentator on afternoom TV shows for crying out loud, if he exists at all it's only thanks to the media.
De que sobornos hablas? Tenes alguna prueba más que lo que dice el mismo Milei? Ni el tiene pruebas. Que campaña mediatica en contra? Es el candidato más entrevistado porque las medidas delirantes que propone son buenas para el rating. Milei le debe su existencia a la televisión, era un don nadie hasta que consiguió que lo llamaran como panelista en los programas berreta de la tele.

As an 40 yo argentinian, I can say that peronism and latter larvae like kirchnerism (despicable populism) are what made our beloved country what it is: a country rotten from inside with a severe cultural, moral and values crisis. It is a real shame that a country that has everything on it (deserts, rainforests, one of the best lands to farm in the world, glaciers, mountains, gas, petroleum, lithium, and produces food for 400 million people per year) is in this pathetic state. I cannot teach my 6 yo son to save money (pesos=nothing), i have to teach him to invest on EToro LOL. I voted Milei btw. Cheers
💪💜
Just changed one populist for another. Argentina will not fix it's problems with Milei, and risks getting worse.
His radical proposals like closing the central bank, dollarising, and cutting state investments in key areas for development, may just throw Argentina in a deeper crisis that might make it impossible to recover.

@@leonake4194wtf. Completely bs, that was misinformation spread by opposing media
One of the thing that contributes a lot to J.G. Milei rise it's the fact that the JxC Coalition (Spearheaded by Bullrich) is seen as soft and too keen to go along with the Peronist-Kirchnerists
Some examples:
- Tax on Financial Rent approved by JxC but promoted by Sergio Massa (Current spearhead of the P-K Coalition) => Results: destruction of the stock market
- Rent Law (A lot of Libertarian Economists warned that this will damage the housing market) promoted by Massa and JxC (Why did they do it? Bullrich admitted on TV that it was so the P-K Coalition will vote for JxC's future projects in exchange for passing this law) => Results: the housing market is a hellhole, paying rent is now best described as p a i n
- The IMF bailout => To prevent default, JxC voted in favor of the IMF bailout despite it pretty much giving a lifeline to the P-K Coalition, full of deficit and just kicking the can down the road for the next government (Who will have to fix x100 the problems that we currently have)
That and more, a lot of former voters from JxC flocked to J.G. Milei
(Of course this is just one side of the rise of J.G. Milei, there are topics that are even longer such as the young voters, the economic catastrophe, corruption and so on)
before milei people said that lowering the minimum wage was "neo-liberal", "ultra-rightist", "fascist". Now people debate whether the existence of the minimum wage is a good idea or not, whether the free sale of organs is right or wrong, among many ideas related to libertarianism
You still have doubts that no minimum wage is better? oh no... unemployed national socialist (nazi) detected 😂😂😂
When it comes to minimum wage, it's the way politicians attempt to paper over the prior failures of government interference. 1. Ruin the economy with spending and currency debasement, 2. Raise minimum wage to appease the populace. It's permanent job security as long as the populace remains ignorant to the fact that it solves nothing and is just kicking the can. The politicians created the mess in the first place. All a corporation will do is pass on the higher cost to do business in the goods and services, and quickly the new wage increase is compensated for with a higher cost of living. And when we look at the obverse, we see how it is now illegal to pay people less to do a job that has less value than the minimum, so people who may be on the fringes and who may have some benefit are now prohibited from entering the market and developing their skills to earn more. It is a needless destruction of immediate opportunity under a fallacious political and emotional rationalization. If a country can, it will implement automation to replace those individuals it has lost due to the governments myopic policies. If it can't, it will just stagnate even more, and in both cases, people who are the poorest are going to be the hardest off because wealth is being siphoned away from the market into the hands of political elites. They will continue to promise more and deliver less, and you have to ultimately extricate yourself from their controls to survive.
It's curious because universall income due to social justice and the idea of collective well being over indvidual liberties originated in italy during their fascist period, @@404person9
the minimum wage in general is a terrible economic policy, especially for democratic countries. The richest and most well functioning economies have 0 minimum wage. Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, Finland, Denmark, Sweden, Austria, Cyprus etc. It usually has neutral to negative effects and sometimes it has extremely negative effects to the economy. It is also used by politicians to buy votes indirectly.
Because the new generation that knows english and how to use internet to look for actual information so they can make an informed vote.

Libertarian ecconomics only is for rich people. Usfull idots for the oligarchs.
Stranger things have happened
i hope he wins and fully deploy its economic policies, just to prove that libertarianism is nothing but fantasy
It's not difficult nor baffling to see why Peronism has so much power in my country. If you think about it rationally, these people are taking an entire social class hostage, all while forcing the neighboring one to drop down in order to grow its number. That, of course is the low/poor class, which now encompass over 50 % of the country's population. They've got an iron grip on them by using the state as the only source of income that they can get reliably, and it doubles during election seasons of course. That's why Milei's speech hits so hard on us. It calls the government a as it is through its behavior: a caste. Hopefully after October 22, which is the definitive election day, he manages to win with over 45% of the votes so he wins in the first run, with no ballotage (a 2nd round where the 2 most voted candidates face off), and this could be the last of Peronism.
Idea for a video could be to talk about who exactly is Javier Milei, right?
ikr like what he stand for, what is his "right wing views" and his "economic policies" is all about
Economics professor and frustrated Rock Star ✨
An excellent combination if you ask me. 😂

as an Argentinian, it wasn't even in my dreams to see a libertarian candidate run for president. I'm so happy. I hope we get less state and more freedom
Well the most likely scenario es that we get what Brazil got with Bolsonaro. An ineffective divisive government that cannot fulfill its crazy promises with magic solutions, and the return of peronism in 4 years. What we need is responsible, experienced, well balanced politicians. Not a Messiah.
youll just be ruled by americans now and their "free market", bye bye argentinian state welcome private owners overlords, see if they care for the poor lol
Milei’s main proposal (trying to shrink and rein over a gigantic state and that its inherent corruption) is one solution but not the solution (as it would be to find effective ways to diversify the economy in a globalized world where everyone is trying to outcompete others, with complex technologies that make it quite harder to begin on a leveled ground) and could (if successful, something extremely rare by itself) merely mean mowing the lawn only for the grass to grow again, beginning the cycle once more. Such change of paradigm would need a constitutional change (to limit the state’s expenditures and clarify where and how the state's money can be used) but also would need to solve how the provinces work on such regard (as each one repeats the national model, and worse as many do it with the sole assistance of the central government).
Nevertheless, the problem with such analysis is that they rarely envision or solve how to transition from a state whose expenditure also keeps a huge chunk of the population with the livable basics to one where such people can stand up by themselves. You can’t doom millions to starvation (lest you react like a dictatorship, empowering those with guns and the active political supporters, and begin a terror campaign that would make those very millions trying to escape country). And any realistic transition would need a very long term plan, something that no single candidate can grant unless there is a multiparty accord to make such scheme viable (at least on paper). When you have many generations of people who never did formal jobs (only menial ones) it’s hard to break the cycle.
Nevertheless Argentina is one of the few countries whose natural resources make it workable: it’s one of the few countries of the world that can easily feed itself without importing and it would only need 5% of its territory to do so (while other countries could not feed themselves not even if they could use even the last fertile inch of their territory, and we are talking of very populated countries) what in a unstable world for many reasons (whether wars, climate, etc.) can’t be discounted. You can renounce tp many luxuries and products but people will always need food. Yet such privileged trait can be a bane, a Dutch Disease bane, too.
He said if he had a mob come after him, that he's got security. However people can stand up for themselves pretty quickly when people are put under real pressure much easier now than 100 years ago without mass production. Also it spirals up, once productivity goes up that attracts investment which creates jobs which in turn creates more productivity. Eventually the jobs get to a point where even the easiest jobs get paid something liveable.
Having them leave the country wouldn't be a bad thing as it'd remove the drain on the system.
ARGENTINA ES NACIONALSOCIALISTA
They have to make their Central Reserve Bank completely autonomous and constitutionally forbidden to finance the state. As long as they don't do this they cannot make an economic comebaback. Then sell state-owned companies and attract foreign investment. That is what we did in Peru and it worked.

The nutjob libertarian ideas have literally never worked in any economy. Ever. All the so called libertarian / neo-liberal experiments have always depended on the privatisation of huge public assets for short term gain and always end up in another round of socialisation, rebuilding and high taxation. In the case of Argentina the meltdown would be even more spectacular because there is nothing there to begin with. I'd bet good money that if the nutjob gets eected the markets will crush the economy and it'll need yet another bailout. What argentina needs is a non-corrupt government that focuses on social issues and security... after 5-6 years of that, we shall see. But then again, the Argentinian voters seem to have some sort of deathwish... the country has been in crisis forever.

Masses will end up hating policies that hurt them in short-term, even though the long-term benefits would far outweigh the immediate costs. If Javier Milei gets in and enacts his policies, in the next election cycle people will probably double down on socialism even harder.
Yes whenever you scratch a libertarian you find a facsist
they have to give him a decade... they could Kirchnerism a decade
@@TheKeendark no, I'm talking about things like lower prices, higher quality and quantity of goods, increased living standards, faster technological improvement and less dumb laws and bureaucracy.
Ofc capitalism also incentivizes things like lower time preference rate and entrepneurship, so there is positive cultural element as well
@@TehRasiahe hates freedom 😃
History shows that fully free-market economy isn't what it meant to be. Just look at UK and what thacherism wrought.

is it possible that Argentinians are coming to their senses?
Some of us, specially millenials and gen z. We have to battle against a lobotomized mass of people who get some money from politicians that is forcefully taken from taxpayers
Here's a suggestion for a visual economic video "Whether dolloraization would realistically achieve everything that Melei promises".
It can't because it requires a permanent trade surplus to service foreign debt and to fund government deficit.
Don't a lot of people already use dollars in Argentina? As well as a lot of other countries now that I say that. The government could probably stay out and let the market do its thing (Milei is also big on cryptos like Bitcoin)
@nicosmind3 just tell me what does the government do in order to pay the foreign debt? What will it do if it has to run a deficit?
And how well had the Argentina Peso worked out for the average citizen?
@waywardgeologist2520 The rest of the world works quite well with a national currency.The REAL PROBLEM IS THAT ARGENTINA EXPORTS CHEAP RAW MATERIALS AND IMPORTS EXPENSIVE FINISHED GOODS. It has to industrialize in order to break its dependency on foreign currency.

I swear to God every time I see a video about Argentinian politics or economy it's more and more ludicrous. It's like the skunkworks of policy, but the experiments always end poorly lmao

Argentina must follow the Philippines economic model as a Diaspora Remittance Economy as 10% of Argentine Economy.
and what it do to the Philippines, its still one of hte poorest countries in Asia, lots of corruption FIlipinos running away to other countries. yah this diaspora remintance works if your gov is not corrupt and forward thinking like SIngapore was doing this draft remintance in the 70s to 80s. money used well, yah diaspora remintance does not work if its the Philippines with veyr high corruption and gov incompetency.

Please make more shorts. That is faster to make than long videos.
You can relate to your last video, relate to an upcoming video like a preview and you can show the relationship between facts of different videos.
You can also include short ads of some seconds like AG1 shown for some seconds and a voice whispering „AG1“.
I think my country suffers the same as Argentina. Not at the same level perhaps, but I'm afraid it will. I wish we had a Milei
You can say thanks for Peronism not being exported to your country. We almost have no living people who knows a reality without Peronism.

@lzbscalle7943 Where are you from?
I might consider moving to Argentina if they get rid of their politicians😮
by electing another politician???
if that's your only concern stopping u from going you're way bette off in Chile which is right beside. Only thing is that it's way richer, safer and less corrupt than Argentina
I'm Argentinian and don't. I have voted and will vote for Milei, but the whole country has to change too. Society has to change for anyone to have a future here. We can have the best in a long time as President, but if people remain the same, Argentina will remain the same. Don't place your future in the hands of our unstable society. People have really changed for the worse as decades pass by, they have become more stupid and conformist. If you have to move, consider not only the politics of a country but also the society that you'll face every day when you leave your house. Anyone that says that people are the same no matter where you go, is lying
@@skellurip Do you seriously think a country can exist as such without politicians?
very good summary of the actual situation in argentine politics.
It took me by surprise how accurate this summary is. It's hard to find videos who describes Javier Milei as an economist.
I just hope Milei wins the presidential elections this year. We need things to change in Argentina… for good! 🙏🏻
Looks like every politician in this country could care less about its peeps

When you run against politicians and win, you become a politician.
You can only destroy the system from the inside
Argentina is such a great country, I hope Javier Milei becomes Argentina's president. Greetings from Argentina
Something that I'd like to add as an argentinian is the greatest loser of this primaries, Horacio Larreta. While in the video it was glossed over that he lost to Patricia Bullrich for the domination to be the candidate of Juntos por el Cambio (understandably so), it has quite the tragic story for him. You see, ever since the start of his second term in the position of governor of the capital, when this term finishes and by law he can not run for a third one, he has aimed to get the position of the president of the country. Now, to get to this goal he has spent copious ammount of money from a virtually limitness wallet to arm his campaign. This was all that held his campaign together, he has recruited most of his allies and kept them on his side by throwing money at them, and making very expensive projects to help on his public opinion. When the election day was just around the corner, it was generalized in the country that Larreta would win the PASO. I guess we were blind sided of just how much we are done with this political instability as it was predicted that Millei would get around 15% to 18% of the votes. But that is not all, when the day finally came, Bullrich, with not even a tenth of what Larreta spent on his campaign, won the nomination to be the candidate kicking his butt. Oh man was I shocked of the results, but I can not say that I didn't enjoy watching his face on the stage rethinking his life choises.
Vamos Argentina con Javier Gerardo Milei. Again a light of freedom from Buenos Aires to SouthAmerica and the World. Fighting for the freedom like our big general Don Jose de San Martin. Bless to everyone
10 out of 10 !!! WOW!! Excellent explanation
1:35: 🇦🇷 Argentina's history of political and economic instability has led to a constant cycle of financial problems and social inequalities.
4:01: 📉 Argentina's economy thrived under Carlos Menem but collapsed in 2001, leading to popular indignation and political turmoil.
7:22: 📉 The Argentine government's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and the implementation of a long quarantine led to a decline in public confidence and a struggling economy.
9:59: 📉 The collapse of Peronism and the government's mishandling of the economy has led to a colossal disaster in Argentina.
14:46: 🗳 Javier Malay, an outsider economist, emerged as the surprise winner in the legislative elections in Argentina, challenging the political model of the country.
17:05: 🇦🇷 Argentina is facing a seismic change with the collapse of Peronism and the rise of an alternative majority.

is Milei, the name of my next president is Javier Milei my friend
MILEI.
Hahahaha malay, i guess it's difficult for an AI to understand it.
If he faces the Peronists in the run-off, he'll win.
If he faces a moderate non-Peronist candidate, he'll get clobbered.
and if he win he will train wreck us into oblivion

Marx predicted that communist revolution will start in the most industrialized society - it had started in the least industrialized society, Russia. Libertarian predicted that the richest & the most enlightened society will lead the libertarian revolution, yet it had failed in the US with Ron Paul, but it is happening in Argentina. I love historical irony.
The US is far away from being the richest or enlightened society. They have the largest PBI, nothing more. 80% of US science and technology is made by foreign professionals, immigrants or temporary. Most of the US population despise STEM and the country is known for mocking intelligence. While having some of the best universities it is a niche. Russians in average for example are much more educated and mannered than the US. A higher percentage of college graduates, more in STEM, basic education has classic literature, music, ballet. They go to classic music and ballet events as US people go to sports and movies.
It's actually quite logical for this to happen this way, people already "enjoying" the system they support would obviously not yield a revolution.
I'm from Argentina... you are spot on!!!
Problems like these aren’t solved by shouting from the stage tho😢
He shouts but he is the only of the few politicians in the country who has concrete plans if he becomes president, and remember that is better one shouting than thousands in silent.
@@FrannB hopefully his plans succeed!
It worked for Hitler. He had to break the shackles of over burdonsome reparations as punitive damages for WWI.
Neither are they solved talking softly
As long as all of his plans are spelled out, they can be continued by anyone. I hope he remains safe but I do not trust the tyrants of the world not to push for a coup or assassination. Hoping for the best here since most of these tyrants only want you to think you have democracy and choice when in truth they only pretend to support those things because it creates stability and apathy.
Well, I hope Milei will turn the rudder starboard in our country, at least a little bit, and sweep away all politicians that have done so much harm to our country or even better hold them accountable, people is waking up and not buying anymore the same old lies they were been told for years, hope things can turn finally better for once. Although I also see it very difficult, there are still many battle fronts for him and for us, as society.

Man, congratulations. I'm from Argentina and you couldn't explain yo the English world the political time in my country more accurate than you did. Congrats again to your efforts for spreading the truth. Regards
Understandable
Argentina deserves to be a modern progressive regional super power. It's high time they sorted out their economy and became the Latin American powerhouse they were always meant to be, because it would benefit themselves as much as every country bordering them. I for one welcome absurd amounts of steak at dinner and the strangest dialect of Spanish you'll find in South America.
hate to break it to you... but going full on neo-liberal isnt considered a progressive move anymore
Hopefully the long nightmare could be over. Hopefully.
when milei doesnt get elected for sure
Loved the content…audio in Spanish was very quiet in parts, compared to narration. Hard to listen to sometimes in the car. Cheers
Being president of Argentina is like being the captain of the Titanic. It's not a job I'd want! I was in Argentina last March for two weeks and shall return there again for five weeks in September/October as I plan to retire to Argentina at the end of 2026. If you have US$ or GBP, Argentina is dirt cheap. Also, since November 2022, foreign credit cards now receive the MEP rate which is very near the Dollar Blue rate. So, you don't have to run to Wetsern Union every other day to buy Argentine pesos.
The peso's days are running out pal! Haha. Seriously, we will be no longer a dirt cheap in the future. Greetings
Well, milei wants to dollarize 😂
I am a 62 year old Colombian and have always admired Argentina . I do not know too much about Peronism , but I think it has been a nefarious force in Argentinian politics since Perón . Perón must have been a master politician , that , I have to give to him , but he must have ruined Argentina with his populism the “glory” of politicians and the bane of countries .
Libertarian? I think “Liberal” is a better translation “. In the USA, “libertarian” is not equivalent to “liberal.” Be it as it may, these video channel is always right on and informative. Thanks!
In spanish, liberal as a political view refers more to classic liberalism, while Milei is a libertarian (he refers himself as an ancap but minarchist in practice).
Then the common media uses liberal and libertarian as interchangeable terms :)
Libertarian is perfect, we don't want to be seen as those american leftist "liberals" . he is economic liberal, and libertarian which is the opposite of socialism
well spoken but dude you need tooth cleaning and polishing!
honestly
One of the most strange things in the elections was the ABSENCE of the papers to vote for Milei.
Yeah we don't use electronic voting because it's expensive and works LIKE SH(I)T. Just the capital had those and they worked, "as expected".
Great
I hope the Argies don't loose their nerve. They need to do something different, another hundred years of the same will yield the same result.
Asi es
