Beef- Argentina might have to Import

My opinion might not matter, but in this global economy, countries cannot afford to loose an industry that supports a government.  

This is happening in Argentina.  Based on the following article, I think the region is having political problems:

Argentina was once a large beef exporter.  Some of that beef graced fine restaurants of the world. Do to a bad export tax, the industry has been harmed.  This is sad.  

The world today needs to have industry, we need agricultural industry. Countries that can't keep up with internal demands tend toward importing goods, an export tax can lead to less farming internally.  

This can lead to death of industry, as we are seeing in the US. 

I don't know what can be done. Maybe politicians need to rethink.  Argentina seems to need that as well.
