i heard ages ago that Argentina had a great economy and was set to be a world power.. and it was Britain with the backing of Chile that implemented plans to ruin its economy (late 19th century to early 20th century?)

@DEonaraR most of what u are talking about was later.. im talking late 1800s.. when they used to have a lot of friction with chile.. i read it a long time ago but britain was helping chile and trying to ruin argentina.. or might have been before ww1 in the early 1900s.. argentina had a good economy selling beef etc.. i think the whole reason why argentina often helped germany out in the world wars was due to britain siding with chile a lot

@DEonaraR maybe one of the reasons argentina is poor is cos they like to rip off tourists? when i went to argentina back in 2006 everything was cheap... didnt seem so bad economy.. great food everywhere. people doing parillas everywhere huge beef steaks for a few dollars... when i went back in 2019... everything was super expensive.. in patagonia a woman wanted $6 for a sweet pepper.. but the main reason i left argentina quickly was cos the cash machines were ripping me off.. every time i took money out not only did i get charged by my bank, not only did i get charged by the argentine bank but i also got charged by the argentine government.. i think i worked out i was being charged something like 30% of all my transactions.. say i take out $100 id pay $130.. its ridiculous.. first time i was in argentina i stayed for a few months.. second time i stayed 2 weeks.. i dont see how ripping off tourists will help their economy

@DEonaraR what i realised on my last trip to south america is theres no point in telling people where good places are and where bad palces are to visit.. every time i go back to a place it has changed quite a lot... every trip is good or bad based on who you meet, things that happen to you events during that time period.. for example i used to say i didnt like costa rica, all the beaches were filthy etc its double the price of nicaragua.. i went to nicaragua first so everything seemed super expensive and dirty in costa rica.. but then, there had been a hurricane recently so not surprised... same with argentina. i had a great time in 2006.. tons of cool big discos warehouses in buenos aires. fouind a great hostal who had good info... met cool people... ate tons of good food, there were some beauty pageants on in mendoza, wine and meat festival things were you could get cheap meat and free wine.. i found a cool flamenco bar in buenos aires... slept with a flamenco dancer.. basically had a great time.. rosario was full up with fitness freak super beautiful women with hot bodies.. just all over the place, everywhere you looked just 10 out of 10 women, when i went back there were no carnivals or pageants on, didnt see any parillas anywhere... didnt find any good discos, didnt meet any cool people, no one gave me free wine, the flamenco bar had shut down, didnt find a girlfriend, the atms ripped me off, didnt find any good food places, everything was more expensive, didnt notice any hot women when i went to rosario.. it was as if theyd all gotten fat in 13 years .. maybe its just pure luck if you have a good time or not? or maybe it all changed a lot?
