If you haven't had a trip to Argentina, affected by a taxi, train, or airline strike, did you really visit Argentina?

Much hardship awaits the nation. Whatever the plan and actions, many decades of corruption and mismanagement won't be corrected soon

Fixing a problem decades in the making was always going to be painful. If the Argentinians can withstand the pressure, maybe they can dig themselves out of this hole

As a Brazilian I'm loving! If he succeeds all region will benefit. And he fails we will have a new joke.

Today Argentinas inflation report came at 13.2 compared to 25 percent of last month

Milei is what happens when someone finally decides to not kick the can down the road. A currection in economics is not fun but it needs to happen if you want to actually fix the problem.

The fact he actually got into office give me hope it can happen elsewhere.

Every obese person knows they need to diet. But nobody wants to quit eating the cheezies.

You missed some details about the money withheld from Chubut. They put that money as a guarantee if they couldn't pay the interest of their debt they contracted with the nation. At the same time, the government sent multiple communications before withholding the money to renegotiate the debt, but chubut never answered. At the same time, the idea that a governor can withhold the oil and gas that private companies produced thanks to contracts with the province is a huge problem because it goes against their right to private property. When you have all this, to me, it seemed like a tantrum a young, inexperienced governor threw to rally support or try to paint the president as a tyrant.

The reason why the Ley de Bases failed in congress is because every article touched someone's money pot. They were unwilling to vote something that would go against their monetary interests. No congressman would vote for something that hurts their or their friend's company.

The biggest example is the "fondos fiduciarios", where very large amounts of money are placed for vaguely defined goals, and someone is given full control over it. Unsurprisingly a lot of money disappeared here, as this structure is taylor-made for corruption.

Milei beeing greeted on a plane by almost all passengers was the most wholesome thing in politics I've seen for a while

[tabo]

He said it would take YEARS. Expecting results in weeks is foolish.

Milei delivering? ... Seems like a silly question to ask a few months in. It's like a person is a person lost his job and is neck deep in debt... and 3 days later you ask him if he's already back on his feet. 20 YEARS of debt and inflation erosion of middle class is not a 3 months fix. In fact the SAD TRUTH when it comes to debt-related issues is that it gets worse before it gets better. It's like rehab for alcohol addiction... you're not going to feel great!!! Worse thing you can do is go back to booze because it's uncomfortable at first.

During his “state of the union” address, he pulled a Gru from minions and said in terms of money we have no money. I was shocked to hear a politician tell the truth. I knew right then and there that this country was headed for clear skies in the future.

Good luck to Argentina from Ireland 🇮🇪

[cmsacademy]

I had calls from friends in Argentina who love him and want him to continue and yet they asked me to help them leave the country as they can’t manage

[rumrunner]

Basically, the president of Argentina is like a physical therapist: sure, you know you need this guy and you need to do what he says to get back on your feet, but DAMN what he's putting you through is PAINFUL, and in the heat of the pain the fact that it's necessary is little consolation

[jamesbonander]

strong medicine always hurts, the longer you put it off the more severe the treatment. argentina is getting a cruel wake up call. it was going to happen better now than later

[nobhiker]

These union are bureaucrats. It is funny when they are called labor unions. No labor involved in those jobs
