in Plaza Roma in Buenos Aires. Argentina is an Illuminati-controlled country, as is most (all?) of Latin America.
Another ex-pat concludes
the place to face future challenges
is here at home.

I couldn't agree more with Joe Spickard's sentiments in his recent post "American Expat Considers Returning Home".
As I wrote in 2011, I too considered relocating to Argentina to avoid the coming calamity in the US, but discovered that these "emerging" countries may actually lead the way down.
On top of the endemic corruption that goes on even in good times, assuming there is something like a global economic collapse, foreigners are likely to be the first targets for looting, etc. Unless you've got some pretty extraordinary circumstances outside the US, it's hard to imagine that hunkering down in the US with a group of like-minded individuals in a reasonably self-sufficient community isn't a far better way to go. Although we only spent several months in Argentina each year as we considered full time relocation, we have sold our home there and are residing full time back in the US.
Admittedly, we found ourselves in a pretty extreme situation in our community up in the rural wine country of Argentina. But it's probably representative of what you can expect in most places when you encounter the dark underbelly of a foreign country.
We loved our community because it was made up of mostly American and Canadian (as well as other European or Aussie) expats in one of the most stunningly remarkable places on the planet. Up in the rural Andes, the air was so clear, the water so fresh, the landscape so pristine that it's hard to imagine if you've never ventured outside North America or Europe. Perhaps parts of remote Canada are this clean and fresh still, but this place was warm and sunny and had weather like the desert southwest much of the year. And all around were Argentina's world class vineyards, bodegas, fine restaurants and wonderful culture. In any restaurant you went to, even in these poor rural towns, the food was as fresh and extraordinary as any meal you would find in New York, Las Vegas or San Francisco. I'm assuming no GMO, all amazing grass fed beef, and the freshest locally grown produce. A great place to visit, but...
We found that the infrastructure in rural Argentina was not nearly what had been expected or advertised, particularly the ability to put together a community school. The instability of the economy led things to be far more expensive than anticipated, as well as the challenges of navigating the black market for currency exchange with the wide disparity from official government rates that were a rip-off for foreigners. In the end, we were stymied by the widespread graft and corruption that are part of the daily life there to get anything done, as well as the adversarial relationship that had developed with the property developers.
We were told the local family that developed our property was one of the largest organized crime families in South America. The family was quite untouchable because the patriarch of the family was also governor, as well as a federal senator at one point. They owned the courts, the police, etc.
One of the Argentine property investors was a Rhodes Scholar who studied in Cambridge, and worked after that for N.M. Rothschild and Sons. He mentioned in passing that his father was at one time the head of the Argentine BAR Association, implying ties to fairly high levels of the British financial establishment. Another of the investors in the development was a prominent libertarian, and Anthony Migchels has discussed the Libertarian ties to the British Money Power as well.
Buenos Aires' most prominent feature is its own Masonic obelisk.
Argentina remains fiercely stratified between the haves and the have-nots, with many of the haves forming their own closely-aligned sect tied to the international secret societies and cartels just like here. The documented evidence of Hitler living out his days in Argentina further underscores the old world ties at work here. No, not everything is like it appears in the travel magazines.
Once one of the richest and most abundant countries on the planet (circa 1900), under this international/globalist influence, Argentina has now devolved to a bankrupt rogue nation, where the common man has virtually no chance to defend himself against the economic chaos the "leaders" inflict on him.
The Argentine people are typically very poor, particularly in rural areas, but incredibly warm and accepting for the most part. Religion probably does much to keep families together and sees people through the many tough times. Yet corruption and crime is pretty endemic, and trust me when I say it goes all the way to the top. It is baked into the fabric of society, especially the rich looting the poor who know no better, with the government being essentially an organized crime racket, and a good number of people trying to take advantage of whoever they can at every turn.
In many parts of the country, you can be stopped by a police checkpoint and if you look foreign/wealthy, you could get shaken down for the loose bills in your pocket as a bribe.
The most recent sovereign default this week hasn't apparently devastated the populace like the last default, when local neighborhoods had to create their own paper scrip as the peso went worthless and much of the middle class had to resort to dumpster diving. But, it's still early.
As a result, petty crime and corruption abounds everywhere by people just trying to provide for their family. Even while we were in Argentina there were mass lootings of malls and electronics stores in multiple cities around the holidays, largely as a form of protest. If you aren't a native, with a large cohesive network, when times get tough, watch out.
I subscribe to Joel Skousen's newsletter and have looked into his Strategic Relocation book and services, on where to live and how to prepare for collapse (and I noted the Skousens are mentioned in the Real Currencies link above).
Joel is a strong believer that relocating to Latin America may get you out of harm's way if there's a nuclear war between the US and Russia/China, but after that, you'd be in real trouble as a foreigner in an impoverished post-war society (and it might be easier to make it through the war). And now I'm very much a believer in that as well.
Much better to hunker down in the US with people you can trust. The most important factor in surviving the coming global collapse, whatever form it takes, will be to have a large cohesive network of like-minded self-sufficient families/individuals. The foundation for this might well be Christian separatist groups that are developing a large network of mutual trust and support under a common "help thy neighbor" mentality.
Something like the nationwide network of His Holy Church. Nobody is going to be able to get through what's coming alone. Tight-knit groups are what got the early church through the collapse of the Roman Empire and the Dark Ages, and those principles look to apply now and soon into the future more than ever.
