There is no military service in Argentina for 18 yrs old, that was erased a long time ago after the Falklands war. So what does this have to do with guns? do you understand a lot of people in Argentina (like in Brasil or El Salvador, etc), especially young people are uneducated & live around violent gethos and use crime as a way of life so actually increasing access to guns would be a very bad idea for the general population.

[@oyeguru2399]

Great News ... Go for more higher goals Argentina ... Love and Respect from India

[@Kapuzki]

I'm Argentinian and some of this information is incomplete. Poverty was through the roof during the previous administration, but the way in which the numbers were taken made it look like it was less. For example, anyone on wellfare was counted as "employed", and anyone receibing gobernment aid counted that against their income so as not to be "poor". One of the first things Milei did after being sworn in was making those numbers more honest. And very recent numbers indicate poverty is already lower than what it was during the previous administration, even when measuring it way more harshly. And this was done in less than a year. Without handouts, or subsidies, or price controls on food, services, or utilities... And without the political backing needed to instate the further reforms he wants. The people SEE this. I, for one, think there's little to no possibility that he doesn't win in the midterms by a landslide

He has to honor debts taken and has been renegotiating those for better terms. Also, the current administration has been working to curtail comercial and military inroads into the country that the Kirchnerists sold to China. And when the courts find out how and for how much was that agreed to, and where the money went... There's a lot of people that very well should end up in prision for a very, VERY, long time.

Argentina estaba en estado de coma, y Milei fue brutalmente honesto el día de asunción al decir: No hay dinero; esto va a ser doloroso pero vamos a poder sobrellevarlo. La mayoría de votantes aceptó ese reto, harta de mentiras de la politica. El otro desafío es cambiar la mentalidad del votante, y recobrar la Conciencia Cívica, para saber exigir y recordarle a los políticos que solo son servidores públicos no dioses que viven es su propia realidad y a expensas del dinero de los contribuyentes.

This guy has done so much with just 7 senators of his own and the entire political system against him.

The cost was dearly but there was nothing else to do. Argentina was heading for the abyss and the only thing that could stop us was to grow wings and learn to fly... amazingly this is happening and prices are going down finally (slowly but steadily) and also is poverty.

Overall a good segment although I take issue with one point talking about the increase in poverty. Milei has addressed this in stating that the prior figure was inaccurate as the true poverty level was masked by price controls. Evaluating poverty relative to price controlled goods makes little sense when there is no supply at that price. By eliminating price controls, the true price can be set and the real poverty level can be revealed. That said, his lay offs have also contributed to the increase in poverty but to fully attribute the increase to the layoffs and the removal of these programs is not entirely accurate.

Milei is what Trump needs to be but will never be.

[@freddygalis1497]

No he isn't. Milei wants freedom: freedom to trade, more freedom for people (less taxes) and less state. Trump still wants to exert control over trade.

[@AzathothianBrew]

@@freddygalis1497 Is that why he sold out to Wall Street and is backed by the corporate capitalism of the US and Zionist Israel?

[@TwilightMysts]

It will be rough for a year or two, but I think it will be worth it. The problem is that such problems came about because people wanted life too easy and it corrupted the system, and the only way to fix it is for life to become less easy.

Imagine India is cutting down on its bureaucracy !! Austerity measures spread all over Europe, especially Greece during the GFC (Global Financial Crisis). Greek people suffered the same way as described by that young lady. Being frugal is good, but if the knife cuts too deeply, it will cut into the blood vessels, and the country would bleed to death. So a chainsaw is probably a bit too extreme.

[@freddygalis1497]

There are no "blood vessels" in goverment. The body of a country is the public people the private sector. Compare state to a parasyte.

The amazing fact is argentina has always had a recession for every generation since 1950. 14 times in total. Hope this is the last one

4:00 poverty didnt rise, the index was rigged. The previous government had a program called "precios cuidados" (protected prices) that had some basic goods like rice on a fixed price and that stock was cleared out really quickly so very few people got them at that price. Once milei got rid of Protected Prices, we started measuring the purchase power with the prices people had always been paying for. I love milei's plan and his execution, but we are far from ok, there's still a lot to be done

Its simple economics of supply and demand and balancing your budget. Most government fails this because the elected representative spends like there's no tomorrow because its not their money.

The Usa is heavily leveraged. It cannot do the same thing. Also, when the US sneezes the world catches cold. What the US needs is to reduce corporate greed.

The world needs to rely less on the US. Thats all

No it is not average g7 128% usa stand at 123% its a bit higher then ideal but economist all agree that perfect gdp to debt for advance economy hover around 60% current us deficit in 2024 is 1.83 trillion dollars with a total revanue of 4.92T total us goverment spending in 2024 is 6.75T if doge could cut 1.83t in goverment spedning and us economy continue to grow at the current 3% and with future tax revanue continue to grow at similar rate we are talking less then 15 years to cut us debt to gdp in half by not doing a god damn thing except for cuting 1.83t in spending not even paying down the debt by a single dollar but by growing out of it and yes this is somthing you can actully do most top 500 comapny have maintain 20-40% debt to market cap for a healthy leverage but with the reduction in debt burden in Interest and tax incentive for coperation the us might even see 5-6% growth that means getting the debt to gdp to 60% will be less then 6-8 years under ideal circumstance so if trump and first time jd vance plays it right they might actully reset the us economy in under 2 presidential terms but lets assume they do it in 3 terms 1 of trump and 2 of vance if they stay the course this will be historic.

What about India it won’t happen because they have dumb leaders like Rahui Ganda don’t paint the world as black and white.

[@andrewlangley9507]

Corporate greed? You have no idea what you’re talking about. Every person who has a pension benefits. If you have any stock, you benefit. If you make use of any modern consumer product, you benefit. Capitalism has brought a standard of living unmatched by any other economic system ever devised. To think otherwise is myopic.

[@MemoryKasu]

Recessions are an unavoidable part of the economic cycle; all you can do is prepare for them and plan accordingly. I graduated into a slump (2009). My first job after graduating from college was as an aerial acrobat on cruise ships. Today, I work as a VP for a global corporation, own three rental properties, invest in stocks and businesses, run my own company, and have increased my net worth by $500k in the last four years.

Choose quality stocks and follow them up. If you're not one for such complexities, work with an Advisor to grow your portfolio. You can't go wrong with a sound CFA.

That figure of more of 50% of poverty was true ... 6 months ago. We'll know the figures for the 2nd semestre in March 25. But we have several estimates from both goverment and private sources that say that poverty has drop at the same levels that before Milei goverment (at about 38%) with a big difference: now, the economic grothw is robust and the future is promising.
