How is this for an argument designed to ingratiate with the existing
dominant powers, and perpetuate, and intensify such inequality.

Now that Argentina's economy is going to shrink by 10 to 15% this year,
it is obvious that it should swallow the bitter medicine and become poor
handmaidens producing commodities for expanding countries like those in
Europe. 

In due course Koehler might pat Argentina on the head, but he knows to
whom he has to ingratiate himself, to be "productive".
