Si te acordás, cuando arrancó el año el ministro de Economía de aquel momento Martín Guzmán dijo que se esperaba un 33% de inflación.

Bueno, ahora están haciendo la actualización con el presupuesto nuevo con 95%. De hecho, la inflación cuando tomás los ocho primeros y lo anualizas viene viajando a 95% y si tomás la punta viene viajando al 125%. Todos los que decían ‘loquito, loquito’, y, ¿qué pasó? Se parece a lo que yo dije. — Javier Milei

Whatever we do must be in accord with human nature. We cannot drive people; we must direct their development.

The defeat of Japan in 1945 left Korea divided. North was a Communist regime overseen first by the Soviets and later by Communist China; south was a pro-American dictatorship. This was the very beginning of the Cold War era, when every inch of land was contested, with each side looking to establish influence or control around the world, unwilling to let the other maintain a sole presence. The choice of the 38th parallel as the line of division was unfortunate in many ways and arbitrary. Washington was so focused on the Japanese surrender that it had no real strategy for Korea. Two junior officers chose the 38th parallel as a place to suggest to the Soviets on the grounds that it was halfway down the country. No Koreans were present, nor any Korea experts. If they had been, they could have shared that that line was the same one that the Russians and Japanese had discussed for spheres of influence half a century earlier, following the Russo-Japanese War of 1904–5. Moscow, not knowing the Americans were making up policy on the fly, could be forgiven for thinking this was the U.S.’s de facto recognition of that suggestion and therefore acceptance of division and a Communist north. The nation was divided and the die was cast. — Tim Marshall

Yet, only years after the Nazi-era, millions were sent to their deaths in places such as Cambodia, Bosnia and Rwanda, and the world once again took too long to act. — Allyson Schwartz
