    Transport Strike to paralyze Argentina in repudiation of taxation reforms - 2024

    I haven’t heard anyone say they feel represented by these union leaders, who only harm the workers. Even the subway drivers wanted to work but weren’t allowed to. It’s honestly outrageous; as mentioned earlier, this strike is purely political and has nothing to do with protecting the most...

    Newcomer Christmas in Buenos Aires

    Christmas here feels a bit underwhelming. Aside from a tree or two in the upscale malls, there aren’t many decorations or festivities to enjoy. If it weren't for the Colombians and Venezuelans putting up Christmas lights in their apartment patios, it might be easy to miss that it's the holiday...

    Browse through Airbnb and find a property that suits your needs. Once you’ve found a place you’re interested in, reach out to the host directly. You can then try negotiating a private long-term rental deal with them, which could lead to more flexible terms or discounts outside of the platform’s...

    Politics Will Cristina Kirchner finally be sentenced to prison?

    We'll find out on November 13 if the justice system is truly fair or if it continues to be as lenient as it has been so far. There's so much evidence, and the justice system has been very soft on politicians. We'll see if their conviction is really confirmed...

    Economy Teenagers investing in the stock market

    Great news for Argentinians: starting at age 13, teenagers will be able to invest in the stock market. Of course, this activity must be supervised and authorized by their parents. I think this is a fantastic initiative! I also heard that schools will be teaching finance. I call this progress...

    Education A sensitive issue in Argentine society that could tarnish Milei's image: Cutbacks in public education

    Colombians studying medicine here in Argentina for 10 years, do you have any idea how much that impacts the country’s budget? Not to mention, medicine is the most expensive degree to finance, meaning it creates a huge burden on the government. This is another reason why the government should...

    Economy The adjustment figures that precipitated a new Federal University March - Infobae

    How can this guy have the audacity to show up at the university march when he was one of the corrupt officials from the previous administration who stole everything? He should be ashamed because he has already lost all dignity.

    Newcomer Who Is Responsible for Property Insurance?

    Nothing has been confirmed yet, but I'm almost certain it was intentional after the conflict the Senegalese had with a group of local shopkeepers. If that's really the case, I wouldn’t hesitate to deport them , people like that don't contribute to the country...

    Poverty has no limit in Argentina

    Poverty has no limit in Argentina

    They use humble people for interviews, trying to get them to speak badly about Milei, but it backfires, haha. These Kirchnerist channels are so predictable and obvious.

    Politics Cristina continues her plan to discredit the actions of Milei's government

    Cristina had a confrontation with Caputo in which she accused Milei of not contributing a single peso or helping with the fires in the province of Córdoba. She was immediately contradicted by the governor of the province himself. So, madam, stop confusing people with fake news...
