I know alot of Argentinians – they have all been very nice people. That being said their naivite regarding the applications of morals in government is their undoing. Their theory propounded in the video is that their government sold them out. However I posit that your government will always sell you out. It is populated by people with large egos and very good self images. Would you expect them not to treat their wonderful selves to as many goodies as they can gulp down? I would also suggest for instance in the petroleum industry their real problem as a lack of a dynamic private sector petroleum industry. By in the beginning establishing a government petroleum company they eliminated the possibility of a dynamic private companies.
Its sad to see such good people put such belief in "morals" or what is "right". For this rarely has any bearing on the outcome. Only by playing the games of real politik can you maintain your freedom. Something Americans should consider.
