I disagree with this comparison. In the article, they described their business doings as "the essence of capitalism." Pretty much everything that TOTUS believes in is the essence of socialism.
I would say the Perons were more comparable to the TOTUSes.
I'm not surprised at all. In The Netherlands the future King has married a Argentina woman who's father has blood on his hands and it was a big deal to get approval for the marriage. The father was not allowed to be at any official thing where his daughter and the future king would be involved in...Well they changed it so the future king is more doing business in Argentina and they are making loads of money.
Luckily with Obama and any president, you can choose a different one next time around,,,but with a king you are stuck as tax payers to pay for their life styles for the rest of their life's!
Obama has proven not to give much to charity before he got nominated as pesidential candidate, just as Biden...than all of a sudden they "believe" that the rich "just like him" have to pay for other peoples health care and share the wealth around...but that wasn't something they did before he run for president...isn't there a patern.....? Look at many Dem...and they way they behaved and gave to charity before the became public figures and had to disclose their tax returns!
At least Rep. are stating they don't believe in hard working people give away so lazy people can get it for free!
No, I dont. You mean cruising around in Air Force One?
Just give a link to someplace explaining what you claim -- that the Obamas are enriching themselves at the taxpayers' expense.
I mean going in vacation 3 times in the last 6 months..at taxpayer expense. Not paying rent, utilities, healthcare, gas. Entire legions of staff payed for by the taxpayer, all the while earning a salary. Why would Obams spend $300 million dollars to get a job that pays $200k a year? He would have to be President for 1500 years to pay that off.

This doesnt make sense, plus it has nothing to do with Argentina's "first couple" socking away money.
