Raven Riley On Mobile

December 10, 2007, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The country was animated as the first woman chosen as president by Argentines, took place at the presidential headquarters. We arrived at the right time.
That was almost three years than we were going wrong in this country, we received the news from afar through the media and our friends.
That day was the Feast of Democracy in Argentina, music, animated Plaza de Mayo with singers known and loved by the people.
It's hard to describe the shock that the product is to return to his home after a long absence, somehow it becomes a stranger in his own land.
's speech the new president brought together all the people, " You can not just change the country with good government, it is also a good society where people understand that with their decision of withdrawal they are being built the model of society where they live "
We had some quick first impressions of this company while still echoing the words of Cristina in our minds: the level of decadent media, naked women showing the city of Buenos Aires, which shows the obsession of the Argentines for the body and mind always macho, which considers women as object. Strange contrast to this country electing a woman as head of government.
" A State which has decided to place education as the fundamental axis transformation " Cristina's speech continues. We find after our long absence and an educated society shaped by a daily television program, where every evening, models and stars seem to be best placed to talk about politics, opinions on current affairs by trivializing the complex social problems traveling through Argentina. The social struggle is seen as completely set apart the leaders of the struggle, as is the case of a woman famous "pit", dancing on the sets for the whole country. In short, it is a society driven by the "show" that left us the legacy of years of Menen.
Day after day, we found our bearings in our country, the city of Buenos Aires was cleaner and better equipped than before, foreign tourism had invaded the typical neighborhoods, large buildings, reminiscent of Manhattan, decorate the streets of one of the smartest districts of Buenos Aires. Everything was done in the capital to the visitor that he had forgotten to do in a country with serious economic and social problems.
lyrics Cristina continued to resonate: " But victory will never be reached as he remains a poor country in .
At first glance, the victory seemed successful in downtown Buenos Aires, it was as if poverty had been swept away so that we do not see it. Yet the evening " cartoneros "continue to recover the waste continues to be the recollection, for a whole sector of the population, the only source of income, before the prolonged absence of formal employment. They are better organized than before, sure, but it's always sad to realize that Argentina is obliged to do this work.
It was sometimes difficult to get around the city because the streets were often cut off by posts that have become today's form of protest is most widespread in Argentina, but that divide the population into a class of low-growing protestor and a middle class who is tired of this dispute as it sees it victim.
Prices have risen considerably which leads us to believe that Argentina is no longer a cheap country as it has been in recent years. But inflation is alarming, and Argentina has become a difficult country to ledge for the Argentines.
The landscape of wealth in this city is sometimes blurred by images of misery, as the case of a "community canteen" located in Puerto Madero, the most exclusive neighborhood in Buenos Aires. In this way the poor recall their presence in an atmosphere rich tourist and that damned neighborly relations between the hunger and opulence.
We found a city increasingly fractured between wealth and poverty, where the two do not intersect very rarely.
