For centuries, Argentina's elites despoiled their own country as the junior partners of British colonialism, American neocolonialism, and latest of all, Wall Street neoliberalism and Euroliberalism.
Until the revolt of December 2001, when the long-suffering people of Argentina decided they'd had enough of bandit politicians and bandit oligarchs.
Say hello to Paranazilla, Latin America's newest developmental state. Its beating heart: YPF, the nation's energy provider sold off to Euroliberalism in the 1990s, and just renationalized by President Kirchner. Argentina now has the resources to protect itself from foreign predators, and to finance domestic industrialization.
