    Food prices are amongst the highest of the planet

    I have been here since 2002 and what is affecting most people is the lack of quality food items for a reasonable price . This efffects the middle classes the most as prices for the most basic items like rice milk and flour products are dearer than Europe and quality is much less . For example...

    The LGBTQ+ community says president has turned back the clock

    I do not believe in social engineering and never was in favor of inclusive language nor promoting of gender diversity in womans sports . What I object to is the defunding of organizations that help the most vulnerable of our society . If there is corruption weed it out but just to just dynamite...

    Intolerance has grown enormously of late and this is very obvious when you see the violent vitriol of people online these days attacking anyone who believes in social programs and support for government programs that assist the most vulnerable. I have never in my life heard so much hateful...

    Feeling Nostalgic-Left BA 20 years ago this week!

    In 2003 for those who worked life was good and very cheap . One coffee and three medialunas was 2.80 pesos or one dollar . A steak meal could be had for US$ 5 in many restaurants . Everything was three times cheaper in dollars than today . Minimum wages were also twice as high than now but with...

    How much did your meal cost?

    The costs in Buenos Aires for restaurants are completely overpriced and unjustified for the quality especially for low end meals . Dumplings ramen available for just a few dollars in Asia and even Australia is over 15 dollars in many restaurants in Buenos Aires . I went to a hole in the wall...
