(22,966 posts)40. Nope - just the Argentine banksters.
Plus of course fly-by-night types like Bessent's pals.
We've seen this movie before: in 2018, when Cheeto arm-twisted the IMF into lending his old pal Macri $45 billion (remember that one?).
Where did all that money go? why, 80% of it went to finance dollarizing peso assets and offshoring by both local elites and foreign speculators - including JP Morgan, who employed the same character who's overseeing the same heist now: Luis Caputo.
But politically, it didn't save Macri's hide back then - and it's not going to work now.

I posted some lyrics for protest, but am not fluent in folk (going to look for a guitar shortly) for the melody.
