1. Huge step for Argentina! Never had heard copper is vital to the green revolution. Wow.

I recall you posted an article recently concerning Argentina, through President Fernández will also be engaging in new lithium production, as well. All of this will set up employment for the population far into the future. Totally new revenue sources.

Chile's Chuquicamata used its merciless world's largest copper mine to rape the country and wildly abuse its workers, over so many decades. You remember learning Che Guevara, passing through the area right after medical school was stunned and sickened after meeting some of the workers during his motorcycle odyssey.

Whoever expected to learn Chuquicamata has its own cemetery?

Having a person of conscience as Argentina's President couldn't be more valuable during this transition. He has been so busy straightening up the catastrophe of the previous fascist, greedy bully's one term. It's a miracle his administration was also pulling this vision together and creating the foundation for the future.

Amazing! Astonishing. Very best hope and wishes for Argentina's future, and bless the voters for securing the right man for the job at exactly the right time.

Thank you, peppertree!
