Replying to Avatar PABLOF7z

A few months ago I gave talk in which I talked about what life is like under Monetary Authoritarianism

I mentioned how I used to pay salaries for my company's employees in 2011:

Flying to US, buying iPhones, glueing them to my body, selling them for pesos.

Rinse and repeat every month.

Well, Milei just made it legal to pay salaries in anything, including bitcoin.

Yeah, of course, you could already use bitcoin for this because bitcoin DGAF, but the fact you can do this legally is useful for those that find themselves still tied to that system.

Politicians can go fuck themselves, but it's worthwhile noticing when some freedom-restrictions are removed.

What about the glue part? Traveling by air means you go through metal detectors ... I'm confused.

How are the protests against Milei going? He's taking radical measures and I fear for the project.

iPhones would go on my carry on during the flight, once I landed, before going through argentinean customs, go to the bathroom, tape them under my shirt, walk through customs, xray suitcases, walk out and tape them off.
