Can't convince me that wasn't on purpose, some shock doctrine ass move.

What was the actual game plan? Like, it looks like he just sort of half-assed his libertarianism while making everything worse. And as far as I understand it, everyone loves it? Lmao

Selling the country down the river while getting rich was the game plan I'm pretty sure. I'm no econ expert but they also did a crypto rugpull, so it seems to be their modus operandi.

Nationalism + stopping inflation (it currently dropped to a pleasant 32,0 %, and stayed there for a year) through shock doctrine. Much like in the post-Soviet states, it collapsed industry.

it collapsed industry.

Forgive me for being ignorant, but, uh, isn't that fucking bad for a country like Argentina? There must be skyrocketing poverty and unemployment.

Bad graph, you can't actually see the drop from when they elected the libertarian.

Yes, the large vertical line is the day after Milei was elected.

Hasn't the "full libertarian" era only been since 2023 under Milei? Wasn't it shithead liberals stacking IMF loans until then?
