Oh Argentina, what happened to you? In such little time too…

This is the part where foreign capital comes, buys everything for pennies, the compradores get rewarded with high paying jobs by the foreign companies and shares, the average argentinian is objectively poorer in every single way, GDP starts growing because foreign companies move their production to argentina because labour is free and then its called an economic miracle and finally Miley gets a nobel prize.

This happens every time a neoliberal "experiment" is attempted, it was the same with Pinochet as well. However, even if poverty skyrockets, the rich get richer, so they keep doing it.

That doesn't make sense rhe political compass sub was just telling me that the an caps were right again.

He has a budget surplus. Theres no way he could have accomplished that by just eliminating all government spending, leaving people to fend for themselves while continuing to tax them.

I'm really trying to muster up some sympathy for the people that thought willfully electing a 4chan ancap was going to fix anything.
