Where's the Beef?

It is reported in the Los Angeles Times that President Kirchner of Argentina has come up with a novel and interesting way to fight inflation of food prices for the masses: he's going to stop, that's right stop-exports of beef.

Taking your biggest line item in the export department off the table makes a lot of sense, particularly to producers in other parts of the world like the US and Canada who will, no doubt, step in to help out their Argentine friends with their....ahem...commitments.

And who said we here in the states have a monopoly on idiots?
