Ah, i didn't realise you were still there ... correct me if this is wrong, but i seem to recall reading that at the last turn of the century the two top income-per-capita nations on the planet were Argentina and Australia ... lots of water under the bridge since then.

With the dollarisation they give up economic sovereignty to gain economic discipline imposed from outside on foreign terms ... if you really can't trust your fellow paisano to govern i suppose it is better than giving up entirely, but i am uncomfortable with it, wouldn't want to see it where i live ... and in no way is that an endorsement of the ability of our politicos -g-
