La vida en la realidad paralela, un lugar maravilloso en el que Argentina es la envidia del mundo y los argentinos son solidarios:

In the short story Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius, Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges tells of an imaginary world so minutely described that it actually comes to exist. Argentina’s government began a similar exercise when it first doctored the country’s economic statistics in 2007. The idea that flattered growth or inflation data might ultimately manifest itself as physical reality is something not even the country’s former military dictators attempted. The result today is an economic wonderland that cannot survive if the country is to return successfully to international capital markets, as it plans.
