The Solution To Argentina's Banking Problems Is To Go Cashless

Short of Dollarizing the economy again, the only solution for the country is going cashless. People are desperate, and they're looking for alternatives such as mobile payments, Amazon gift cards and Bitcoin to store their savings away from government control. A digital currency could help curb black market exchanges, fight corruption and restore the country's image.

Preach it bro! Everybody knows that the areas of the world with the least government are utopian paradises whose citizens enjoy more wealth and liberty than all the other nations combined!!! How an individual gifted with your insights starts off at -1 moderation, I'll never know. But keep fighting the good fight! People will eventually come around and recognize the truth which you so eloquently reveal in your posts (which is DEFINITELY NOT FLAMEBAIT!!!!)
