“Detective, please. I do not think you are doing a very good job at this President ‘side hustle.’ Just change the currency back, resign, and let’s get back to the investigation.”
“But the dogs… they promise us further more…”
Does this mean that we can now ask chuds “BUT WHAT ABOUT ARGENTINA!?” when they bend over for capitalism so fervently?
i kinda brought it up to a finance type guy yesterday and he said that after decades of terrible economic policy, argentina is finally on the right track, even if it’s gonna hurt in the short term.
these fuckers will bend reality until it breaks before admitting that maybe people need food to eat.
“short term”
The exchange rate devaluation wouldn’t have been as much of a issue if he had done it slowly and enacted price controls but noo shock therapy it is.
What does he thinks of Russia and Eastern Europe doing the same policy and failing?
it’ll be short for the people that die of hunger…
They have been saying the exact same thing about the former Soviet Union for over thirty years now. Just some short term pain to correct for all the economic mismanagement of socialism. Any day now…
GDP per capita - itself a terrible measure, especially comparing socialism and capitalism - only in recent years got back up to 1991 levels in Russia. Ukraine (even before the SMO) never got back up to the Soviet level. The entire Eastern Bloc would have been better off today in GDP per capita terms if they just had barely above zero economic growth this whole time.
yeah but they’re not going to know about it because their human centipede of talking points won’t pass it to them
He has been unable to pass most of his reforms, so there’s that. A better example is Menem, he caused massive damage in the 90s.
Socialism is not a bad word in Argentina, at all, so I’m hoping he will resign once he realizes he’s getting nothing done.
you guys are so stupid, look at how much money they have now
Adding zero after zero to the economy
Juice of neoliberalism
Actually Existing Anarcho-Capilatlism (AEAC) in action folks
Yes, but you know, this is good inflation.
The rule 34 kind?
no it’s like cholesterol, where some is “good” and some is “bad”. you have no idea what the difference is but you think the point is to eat more eggs and less deep fried things or something
deleted by creator
yes, the sonic kind
I can’t believe communism would do this
Capitalism is when no food.
Any day now, it’ll be a glorious ancapistan utopia! Trust me!
“Wait, no! Milei’s not a REAL libertarian, he’s a socialist too! Argentina’s still corporatist, not capitalist! Want REAL capitalism? Just look at Medieval Iceland or England! We can TOTALLY recreate those CAPITALIST societies in the 21st century! Trus me bro!”

what was that one hard drive article? man who lost everything in bitcoin wishes just a few thousand more people warned him earlier?
Wasn’t this intentional? The first thing he did was halve the value of the currency. Seems kinda goofy to dunk on someone for accomplishing what he set out to accomplish
Regardless if it was intentional, his supporters domestic and abroad thought he was going to usher in the ultimate free market, free from regulations, age of consent, and communism
When the aim is to be evil, it’s always right to dunk
No. He and his team are incompetent. He tried to rule by decree, when that failed he tried to push a huge law and when that got pushback they tried to take it back to committee without understanding it meant they were back to square one.
Even so, blaming him entirely for inflation is silly. He’s only the president, and has only had a couple of months.
blaming him entirely for inflation is silly
This is true, since he’s actually the third Thatcher that God visitted upon that country.
Fourth no? Military dictatorship, Menem, Macri, and then Milei.
I’d have to read on the argentinean junta, but if the experience there is anything like Brazil’s there’s only a misconception that it was ‘neoliberal’. For starters, the regimes predated the washington consensus. And as it turns out, authoritarian officers aren’t liberal people in any way. What the brazilian junta did was un-do or freeze social progress. If before you can see the state capitalist machine wanting to develop internal consumption, the juntas fully endorsed outright fascism and social hierarchy. ‘What is good for the rich is good for the poor’, rather than negotiated settlements or any sort of policy oriented towards the consumer base or unionization. Nonetheless, what was good for the rich was to keep the developmentist money spigot going, only for the rich. Privatization is a post-volcker shock, post hyperinflation political project.
It’s kinda like how Bolsonaro not that long ago actually liked Hugo Cháves. The brain of latin american officers is a mush of wanting to impose strongman rule and only some of them come across having an actual ideology - leftist or otherwise.
I could be wrong though. Maybe the Argentinean junta was less statist than ours. But even so, Menem, Macri and now Milei does make for a nice aliteration does it not?
He’s simply more skilled than Pinochet and Macri at crashing the economy.
At this rate idk if anyone’s going to top his ruin the country any% speedrun and I await the SummoningSalt video.
What does Pinochet have to do with this? Wrong country.
Oh I meant in political leanings they’re in the same category and in a speed running sense he’d be more skilled than Pinochet
Listen up commies:
Crashes the economywas getting caught part of his plan?
we did it, guys! we balanced the budget! and we get to build a new cathedral made out of bones with all the people we starved doing so!
