    Unpopular opinion: Argentina deserves no sympathy. They fucked around and found out when it comes to not paying back their debts. I don't blame Elliott mgmt for going after their investment and trying to get their money back. It wasn't a "donation", it was an "investment" and they expected a return on said investment. Not to get paid .30 on the dollar so they'd lose a crapton of money. Also while it may be kinda nuts that one hedgefund can hold up an entire country, that just makes it all the more obvious that places have to pay their debts and not reneg on deals like Argentina did. John's take of "it should be illegal" is basically saying we should give countries a free pass to make deals and then ignore them completely without a thought for repercussions. That's NOT how the world should work...
