I talk a lot about Milei on here, but let's take a moment to itemize the socialist economic fever dream from which the country is emerging: Kirchnerism.

🇦🇷The economic atrocities committed by Kirchnerism in 20 years were only applied (sometimes only in part) by Cuba and Venezuela. No other country in South America did the following:

1. Raise public spending from 20 points of GDP to 46 points.

2. Doubled the number of public employees from 2 million to 4 million.

3. Expropriation of all private pensions.

4. Subsidization electricity, gas, transport and water for 2 decades, sometimes almost the entire bill.

5. Subjection of 50% of its population to social plans.

6. Incorporation of millions of retirees without contributions to the system.

7. Application of astronomic export taxes.

8. Exchange rate cap to restrict access to dollars.

9. Re-establishment of a dozen companies that immediately returned to deficit.

10. Establishing multiple extra layers of approval for imports (bribes).

11. Export ban

12. Price freeze under penalty of fine and closure.

If Argentina did not have fertile land to produce cheap food in abundance, we would have been in a civil war long ago.

What the Milei Administration has managed to accomplish economically in 6 months is nothing short of miraculous, and it's all thanks to shrinking the state apparatus.

Abrazo de libertad.

Shoutout to @PregoneroL on the bird app for the inspiration.

I believe that Kirchnerism made mistakes since 2011 that only worsened with the next two governments of Macri and A. Fernández. It has deviated from Peronism, which historically was an strong Argentine capitalist movement. Many young generations do not understand what Peronism is because they have been shown a social democratic movement that loves state control and keynesian economics. There is much to applaud about Milei, such as the change in financial policy and health of state accounts, and things to criticize, such as his lack of expertise in social policy and international diplomacy among other things, I particularly like to be a sovereign state and not a puppet of NATO, for that there are already many nations.

But PregoneroL is a caste state troll who has as much value as a socialist applauder. Big hug.

It's very sad how the Ukrainian people have been used by the US war machine. 😢

#Bitcoin fixes this. Making the cost of war very high.

It looks like Putin was right when he said the only purpose of the event was to gain international recognition of the legitimacy of Zelensky, who extended his own presidential term.

Putin always play by the book. He has much more coherence than any puppet in that meeting as far as I know.

Kamo Weasel 1y ago

Yep, that is sad for his people.

To be honest, I was disappointed with this event. I expected a grand scale and bright performances, but it turned out to be just some local gathering of Monopoly players.

It was an event for peace in which no one talks about peace.
