    Let me know when that happens. Because it isn’t even close to that yet. 276.4% inflation is not a working economy.

      That was the previous government, The current government has reduced it first to about 8% last month, to now 4.4%.
      The current administration took office in December, and obviously it takes time to make reforms. But president Javier Milei is an economist, so we can hope he can get that part working better than the previous government.

      But he is a populist as you wrote, and allegedly a libertarian, so I agree Argentina may be going from one evil to another.

      It’s weird how South American countries often goes from one extreme to another?
