RE: Argentina: Javier Milei

in LeoFinancelast year

He lacks a majority in the Argentinian parliament thankfully which will be one block on his reactionary social and economic agenda. This guy will be a puppet of US imperialism and act dutifully to further the murderous goals of American imperialism throughout the region. There is absolutely nothing to celebrate in this persons election. He will do everything in his power to protect and advance the transfer of wealth upwards. Just like Trump this guy will fail and corruption will remain endemic in Argentinian society/economy.

Sort:  

There is no majority on either side of Congress.

You sound like somebody who'd never been to Argentina... I've been from Tierra del Fuego to Formosa... and when I look out my window I see Argentina. That means I know what it's like to pay for a dinner with a brick of cash, and what real transfer of wealth is like... for the the price of some shoes today you could have bought a house 20 years ago.

Paraguay recently stopped selling electricity and bananas to Argentina because it couldn't pay the bills, and nearly started a war because Argentina was trying to tax cargo up the Parana/Paraguay river.

Speaking of imperialism... what are your thoughts on Las Islas Malvinas? Milei thinks the islanders should have the final word. The country is past the brink, and if his momentum can even keep the lights on there will be a reason to celebrate.

I believe that the Argentinian people should have the final word on what happens to those islands.
Argentina like most other countries in the global south are victims of the unfair terms of trade imposed by the US and its imperialist partners after WW2 on the rest of the world.
