Patriotism is funny to see. A lot of people are so proud of their country, yet they are just pawns in a game played by the state and their leaders.
If one can think rationally, it's best to be born in smaller countries like Switzerland, Luxembourg, Qatar, Singapore .. Nothing to be proud of besides having the highest chance to live a very comfortable life.
In Argentina it is said, half-jokingly, that 1 week of news cycle in Argentina is 10 years of news cycle in Switzerland.
On a similar note, leave Argentina for 2 years and everything is different. Leave for 20, and everything is the same.
In summary: There are far crazier places to be born than Argentina, but oh my god I would pay to see what a billionaire would do if they had to live there with the median wage and the current cost of living...
