Almost a decade of average zero growth, declining quality of life, crumbling infrastructure. It is sad to see the state of destruction the country was left in after Christina left.

And the state of the country when she arrived? Let's not forget what happened between 1998-2002.

From your last article: >Many of Argentina’s problems are familiar. Inflation has plagued Argentina for much of the past decade; it still grew by an average of 5.6% from 2005-2013.

Not a fan from Christina, but the situation is way more complex than just one (or 2 with Nestor) president.

Don't agree here: - Growth has been relatively high - Infrastructure improved - Quality of life improved - The state was not left in a state of destruction.
