From 165 the Spanish-Portuguese settlers carried out successive extermination campaigns against the indians, the Campana del Desierto culminating in 1880 with the last ones killed in Southern tip of the continent. In Argentina there are no reservations. <br />(2) To Argentina arrived the same Italians and Spaniards that arrived to America, with many arriving to Argentina after America closed its borders to immigration in the twenties. The Spanish Civil War brought a million Spaniards, many Leftist intellectuals. WWII caused the immigration of about 1 -2 million Germans, some running away fromthe Nazis, some running away from the Allies or the Communists, most just looking for food during the post-WW famines (that no one is talking about). All keep low profile. Not a drop of Indian blood here. <br />(3) ARgentine mentality is consequence of the incredible natural wealth of the country. No amount of stealing, mismanagement, corruption seems to make a dent on the living standard of the people. Dios es Argentino - God is an ARgentine, that is, an Argentine has no need to worry because God will provide. And it is providing. The case that Steve is analyzing is a perfect example of the ARgentine mentality, like not paying the mortgage and to keep living in the place without a worry for eight months on. They have not a care in this life, because they are convinced that God, who is Argentine, will take care of everything. <br />(4) ARgentines are not a people of Fiestas. Argentines are a rather sad, depressed, introspective people. Steve, your commenters are confusing Argentines with Cubans or Puerto Ricans. Well, Americans are known for their ignorance of geography. Of history. Well, ignorance in general.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05676167615981895061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-65987374315506566702009-05-27T09:52:03.359-07:002009-05-27T09:52:03.359-07:00Anonymous: Illinois, which doesn't

Sometimes this blog is very informative, what with the freedom from PC rules & regs, but it can make some commenters think they are in a souk where an exchange of gold can buy any white-beard a 15 year old virgin legal wife, allowing him the possibility of going to his grave with "bells on his coffin" --a Persian expression describing a man who fathered children in old age.<br /> As for the "trophy" of a young wife--well, unless he has thick armor, he and the misses would likely be a kind of stereotype joke. When I was young, neither the guys nor the girls thought too much of that sort of couple for the most part, though I'm sure some were/are v. happy. I won't go into the choice descriptive names that often arose. In fact, I think the whole debris would be even ickier.<br />He's got kids already.

Living in LA would be more relevant. <br /><br />But why didn't she get another job after being downsized (or fired as a McArdle poster suggests).

Or Home and Garden Television, with "House Hunters" series. I've seen it in older execs (plus 40, married) that I've dealt with. THEY mostly don't care what they drive, past a certain floor, a Toyota or Honda will do, but their wives MUST have the Land Rover. Or what have you.</I>This is precisely how it is. And first world nations are now living in an age of abundance when a very large portion of our money is spent on status goods.<br /><br />This is why I can only imagine living under communism being much worse on the womenfolk than on men, relatively speaking. Men generally don't give jack shit about consumer dreck. Sex and alcohol beat that 10-0 for us. And high quality sex was available for much larger groups of men behind the Iron Curtain than in the West.
