      Argentina’s annual inflation rate sped past 211% in December

      He only assumed office in December. I think he is a whacko but expecting him to have a major change in inflation immediately is a bit ridiculous, don’t you think?

          He actually said that was going to happen. Argentina has been. Subsiding fuel and food and removing the subsidies would lead to short term inflation since the price of both is no longer artificially low.

              The measures would lead to higher inflation in short term but decrease in the long term. It actually is sound economically.

          DOWNVOTE ME WHAT YOU WANT BUT HERE’S A SOURCE varias semanas de subida en el precio de la carne como consecuencia de las fiestas navideñas, con alzas de hasta el 50%, muchas carnicerías empezaron a aplicar rebajas del 20% y 25% en los últimos días para adaptarse a la menor demanda posterior. Y lo mismo está sucediendo con el resto de productos estacionales, propios de estas fechas tan señaladas, como es el caso de sidras, turrones o dulces, entre otros. El mercado se adapta a la demanda de los consumidores y baja precios con el fin de dar salida al stock acumulado.

              He’d been in power just few weeks. Where you live is PRIVILEGED

              I would also vote left if in Europe or us

              But in south America the left got into the narco boat. And also steal from gov funds and projects. So basically do what right wing does in Europe.

        He’s a wacko for religious and gay and female stuff. Yes. Old values.

        BUT EVERYTHING IS BETTER AS 100-200% INFLATION FOR TEN YEARS OF COMMUNIST RULE. basta ya. Let People import things, get them off the dole. Make some money and import and export stuff again.

        ARGENTINA WAS/IS A FAILED STATE IN ALL OBJECTS. IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE SITUATION YOU SHOULD TRY READ UP.

        Milei is fixing it in argentina. NOBOA is fixing it in Ecuador.

        Give them a fair chance and f off with your communist propaganda it is THE CULPRIT OF THIS 200% INFLATION

        (MILEI ALREADY FIXED THAT PARTIALLY BTW, no more difference in exchange rate between street and bank!!)

          The Peronists that have plagued Argentina for decades are not communist. They are extremely protectionist and horribly corrupt but they are far from communist.

          The exchange rate being real is definitely a good thing. Eliminating price controls and allowing imports will also be good things. That doesn’t mean he won’t leave a path of destruction in his wake. Fixing the economy can be done without having an anarchocapitalist being the one crafting the policies.

          While I may not know as much about Argentina as an Argentine, I have taken an interest in its economy since college when I studied the currency board of the 90s and what led to the economic crisis in 2000/2001. So I am definitely versed on the destruction that the Kirchners (specifically Cristina) laid the groundwork for.

          Can you explain the female stuff? I thought he kind of surrounded himself with women to plan and run his campaign?
