Martin said today:
"I am not going to deny that in '95 budget that we cut transfers to the provinces," he said. "I didn't want to do it, but the fact is we had to do that. If we had not taken the action that we took in 1995, we would be Argentina today."
Some of Argentina's economic indicators:
GDP - real growth rate: -10.9% (2002 est.)
Population below poverty line: 37% (2001 est.)
Inflation rate (consumer prices): 41% (2002, yearend)
Unemployment rate: 21.5%
Right on Paul - you saved us from that.
