gracias, vecina!
the tapa of the newspapers here yesterday (both oficialists as Pagina/12 and in the opposition as Clarín) was the dollar (no, we aren´t in USA..)... There are new medidas for stopping capitales go to other countries. Here´s the news´s today:

from the last article:
La salud de la economía argentina acaba de empezar una batalla contra uno de sus rivales más temibles: el miedo a la devaluación. El miedo es una cuestión de expectativas: se teme a lo que se supone que va a pasar. Que puede pasar o no. Pero ya en el momento previo, el del “miedo a que pase”, condiciona las políticas y actitudes. Quienes alimentan el miedo, especuladores y operadores diversos que se beneficiarían con una devaluación, precisamente buscan eso: que “por miedo” el Gobierno cambie de actitud y acepte aunque más no fuera “un corrimiento” del dólar hacia arriba.
reading this alone it has sense, what it not has sense is:
- that the annual inflation here is far away from the 30% -the government INDEC lies saying is more or less 12% and everybody knows about it...-. That now buying first necessity articles here costs more than in the first world countries and yeah, the salaries had risen but the prices more... (in clothes, from one temporada to other more than the 100%).
. If the salaries rise 30% each year and the dollar cambio remains the same we´ll earn salaries -in dollars- similar to the ones in the first world countries. I like science fiction but....mmmmmmm
. We have a memory of inflation-devaluation cycles each more or less 10 years
. We are more in personal debt and more materialistics than ever ...
. The government is sucking fondos from the Caja de Jubilaciones to stabilize the dollar prices ... When you know how are the conditions of the PAMI hospitals and think in the future of the jubilaciones that doesn´t sound good...
I´m not for escatology, but I know that if you let open too much doors to that it´s quite possible that catástrofe happen. The economic catástrofe here it would be a suddenly big devaluation but it´s also already a neverending inflation carrear... Why we have inflation? I guess because the government spends more than it collects, print too much money ... but is only that?. It´s still a misterious kind of process to me.
This situation allows place to this kind of aviso for investors (I found it yesterday in the right column for publicity in the online edition in english of The New York Times, today it dissapeared). The first part didn´t say nothing most of the people already know here, the second only offers individual & material salvation for the rich ones... so sad.
