Argentina's extractive economic model drives poverty, warns analyst

An Argentine analyst critiques the country's economic model—mining, oil, agro-export, and carry trade—as a 'rapiña' (looting) scheme that perpetuates poverty, affecting 15 million poor and 3 million destitute. The piece is an opinion essay, not a factual report, and offers no new data or events. It signals domestic political discourse around economic policy ahead of elections.
