answering for us tax only: the bank account makes absolutely zero difference.  if you are not a us national and not resident in the us, but earn income from a us employer/client/customer, generally that income is not subject to us tax (no matter where it is banked). however there are (complicated) exceptions, particularly if you are considered to be operating a 'trade or business' in the us or us real estate is involved. start at https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/nonresident-aliens and proceed through pub 519 if you have time to spend. i do not know (or answer) about argentinian taxes. whether you can find a us bank that wants to open and maintain an account for a foreigner (which is extra paperwork and regulation for them) is a different q, that is already asked and answered: b1/b2 visas do not allow you to work, but that isn't really in scope of money.sx and belongs over on travel.sx (or expatriates.sx for longer stay);  https://travel.stackexchange.com/questions/25416/work-as-freelancer-while-tourist-in-us-for-an-already-existing-us-client seems to cover it.
