“. . .half the Argentinian population is living in poverty and J. Milei is turning it around.’
Huh. Stupid me. Here I thought Dougie was a libertarian. Newsflash Doug, no government anywhere in the history of the world is responsible for so-called “creating prosperity.” That credit goes 100% to the “butcher, the baker, and the candlestick maker.” In other words prosperity happens only within the marketplace, especially one operating in a free market.
I will give credit to Milei for removing the heavy hand of the hated State from the Argentine economy, for sure, if he can pull it off. And that’s to be determined. At least he’s seems to be off to a good start.
