Why is Argentina poor?

I thought all white countries were supposed to be an utopia of productivity, civilization and intelligence.

They are half Italians half Spaniards. Go figure.

Listed as "very high" on hdi index. Meaning they are essentially a first world country.

Hell no.

Go to Argentina.

It is a miserable hellhole.

t. host of the most catastrophic olympics in history

and it hasn't even started yet

With the worst of both countries: lazy as spaniards and vains as italians.

America has money because we have tons of natural resources and easy ways to transport them.

Don't forget a great location. Same distance from both Europe and Asia yet removed from both.

Fast enough to see any military invasion coming hundreds of miles away.
Close enough to make ocean trade possible.
Country lined by several large rivers that make transfer within the country easy.
Spent money on a cross nation rail system centuries ago.
So fucking massive a land mass that no invading force could stop an insurgency.

We picked the best spot and did everything right.

one of the Biggest economies around the 1910's, making Papa España and cousin USA proud, but then they got Jew'd and their economy started falling down the stairs like a muslim throwing a gay person off a balcony

100 years ago things were looking pretty well for Argentina. Economically, it was the US of South America. But the nation became too urbanized, too socialist, and by the time of Peron, the genie was out of the bottle.

I'm pretty sure it's one of the most prosperous South American countries.

By prosperous, I mean fairly educated, low crime rate, and decent wages.

Chile is doing much better after the reforms by Pinochet.

This.

Argentina was on par with Canada in terms of economic success and standard of living by the early 20th century.

Then a series of bad decisions fucked the country over.

And no nigger slaves to do all the work for them.

And then they elected Christina and Bachelet

They are debt defaulters

From 1900s to 2016

only 5 presidents (1 of them got couped in his second term in 1930) ended their period in control of their government 2 of those are the kirchners

We've had so many coups you can't count them with the fingers of your hands

>We picked the best spot and did everything right

Your ancestors brought blacks to America and now you have the dindu problem. Don't forget the non-white immigration also...

You are almost right. You did some minor mistakes that are destroying your anus hard, right now.

But they make great Taco Pizza

>largest economy in the world even in a recession
How's life in the Favela Pablo? Catch zika yet? Ready to be destroyed in your own country during the Olympics?

So are we, technically.

Our ancestors also didn't view blacks as people and wanted to send them all back to Africa once they served their purpose as well as make laws barring all non whites from living in the country.
Then liberals happened.

>argentina
>white country

Argentinians are vain as fuck. I went to Buenos Aires for a week and people scoffed at me when I told them I was from the States, like literally it was like I told them I was from Papua New Guinea or something. One porteño told me America has no culture and is full of ignorant savages who can't point out most countries on a map, meanwhile sipping wine from what looked like a beer mug. Fucking sickening. They want to be like Europeans so bad.

It's full of niggers.

Perfidious Albion pls go.

Spaniards ≠ Hispanics. Pic related is Paela Pizza, only avalaible in Poland.

like what bro? the second largest economy(china) got there selling trinkets to us. thats how boss we are.

Literally the only thing that could destroy the US is itself. Which is exactly what's happening.
