Crazy, think of all the people who will now die due to this austerity.

Hope he is very proud of his accomplishments. We have a MAGA contingent all around the world and only growing.
Well done Mr President.

There's nothing about this to be celebrated. Governments are not for profit institutions. If there's a budget surplus, it means Argentinian tax payers were over taxed and they should all be given a refund.

You would be correct if they raised taxes to generate the surplus. Instead, they cut spending, which is what most on the board want the US to do. Do they have a national debt that they need to pay down? If so, this surplus allows them to do so. A streak of surplus years will allow them to discuss tax cuts.

It's the GOAT, Javier Milei. You think he wants the government to be bigger?
There's still a lot of work to be done. Keep in mind, he's had this incredible success already and barely any people from his party are in congress. They are forecast, though, to make massive gains in the '25 election cycle.
When that happens, look out. Argentina might become a real life Galt's Gulch in a few years. Hyperbole, of course, kind of..... but you get the picture. This guy is doing wonders down there, so let him cook.

Give the man some credit. He took office 13 months ago with a 200% inflation rate.
There is something to be said for turning that shite-show into less of one.

This is the dumbest post I've seen on this board in a lot time, and thats a fricking high bar.

Hold on now, SFP. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt. He may have meant Make Argentina Great Again.
I'm an optimist at heart.

Why do I always see your posts as if they were written with bad penmanship and with crayons?

MAGA economics are the opposite of what Milei is doing. Posted on 1/18/25 at 8:10 am to DMAN1968

Stop. They're not the same person, sure, but they do share a lot of similarities and both of their rise to power has been mostly due to public push back against big government and woke bullshite.

Not economically.
Milei is all about austerity, which is antithetical to economic populism.

Economic populism involves pursuing social and economic policies that transfer resources from the wealthy to middle and lower income groups

Sure he is. He’s taken an out of control spending and mismanaged govt, shrank it and created a surplus.
All things MAGA purportedly also wants.
