Creo que hay una opción que sería la única en las que todas las partes saldrían ganando. El Atleti no quedaría mal ante su afición y recuperaría la normalidad. Gil Marín no tendría que recular y su ego seguiría intacto (cosa que le preocupa especialmente). El cholo podría tener sus fichajes y además Julián jugaría en el Barça. Que un club haga de intermediario fichándole sin inscribirle. Nos lo venden al día siguiente con un plus por la ayuda, o dependiendo de las normativas, que venga cedido una temporada y la siguiente compra obligatoria. Me parece la única salida a todo esto. #Atleti #fútbol #transferencias

Che no puede ser que tiren tanta fake news sin chequear. Es un papelón esto. Ese 66,44% que figura en la comunicación es el promedio mensual de tasas para préstamos personales que el BCRA publica regularmente. Está ahi en la foto. Se informa así todos los meses según la normativa vigente, años. Nada relacionado a un límite ni nada de eso. De hecho, desmiente la otra fake news de estos medios kukas, que la mayoría de las tasas están al 700%. FALSO. El promedio este mes fue del 66%. #FakeNews #BCRA #Economía

MÁS MEDIDAS PARA REDUCIR LOS COSTOS DE TRANSPORTE. El Decreto 689/2026, con firma de @JMilei, @LuisCaputoAR y @diegosantilli actualiza, luego de 30 años, el Anexo R del Decreto 779/95, reglamentario de la Ley de Tránsito, que define los pesos y medidas del transporte pesado permitiendo agilizar y bajar costos del transporte terrestre. 1. Se equiparan las medidas de camiones con los de Brasil. Falta adecuar la norma Mercosur para dar plena integración al parque de ambos países, pero este era un paso necesario. 2. Se aumentan los pesos permitidos por camión, siempre respetando el peso por eje que es relevante para el mantenimiento de las rutas. Teníamos el absurdo de tener camiones que pudiendo cargar más no podían hacerlo porque la norma, obsoleta, lo prohibía. 3. La tecnología de vehículos con combustibles alternativos (gas y electricidad) cambió radicalmente en estos últimos 30 años. Se adecúa la normativa para acomodar las nuevas configuraciones. Gracias a @monoplenco (Mariano Plencovich) Secretario de Transporte y a Marcelo Campoy, Director de Vialidad Nacional. En @MinDesreg_AR gracias a nuestro Secretario de Transformación @MaxiFarina, al Subsecretario de Desregulación @HectorHuici, Cecilia Domínguez y @ParetoOptimo (Santiago Franco). Y, como siempre, muchas gracias a la Secretaría Legal y Técnica, a cargo de María Ibarzabal. #Transporte #Costos #Normativa
