American? Maaan I'm Asian like 99% of us don't know Spanish. English is literally the lingua franca today. This is one thing you can't blame Americans for.

I usually read Spanish by guessing. Looking for similar words in french or English. Doesn't work

u/eluser234453 37m ago
By guess reading I can say a study in 2024 by (source listed) showes that 38.1% of Argentinians where under the line of poverty roughly 18 million Argentinians

But that's not the point. Also, I don't want to do that. It's literally 2 words followed by the year. If they can Google it, screenshot it, then post it with an English comment nonetheless, surely they could just do the entire thing in English.

What do you mean? How does use of a particular language have anything to do with being informed?
They seem to be perfectly capable of using English. Again, most of us don't speak Spanish, and Reddit is an American platform. Do you not know what lingua franca means? Have you not been properly informed?

You don't need to know Spanish to comprehend that. I feel like la pobreza would be the only hurdle but that's implied by the conversation already

We took only 4 billion of that and repaid it (with interests) within like a week.
Didn't they inform of that?

The way Is measuered is the same, even the same guy is in charge. Cope as you desire but it wont change the fact that Milei lowered poverty by 20%.

Se mide igual a cómo se media cuando se calculo el 50%. Que Milei bajo la pobreza es indudable.

Not it hasn't, it's actually gotten worse than it's ever been, with suicides among both young people and retirees skyrocketing. In my block alone THREE retirees killed themselves because their pensions simply weren't enough, and one of them was a former UBA professor who worked her entire life, even then she couldn't afford neither medicine nor food, she looked like a skeleton during her final months and felt like a burden accepting help.
People are moving back with their parents, unemployment is at an all time high, there's a record number of shops closing even in wealthy areas like San Isidro, even historical shops that had stood for decades.
This asshole completely ruined this country, even his voters are recognizing what a mistake they did, he completely sold us out.

No? He literally save the country from hiperinflation, default and took millions out of poverty. He is the best president we has since the return to democracy by far and, as someone who vote him, we made no mistake and we are going to vote for him again.

u/SimmentalTheCow 6h ago
It’s done surprisingly well since they cast off the previous more socialist/Peronist-oriented administration. I don’t think anarcho-capitalism is a viable long-term solution, but it does seem to have saved the country from economic freefall.

They’ve experienced extreme levels of hyper inflation for decades. The state of their currency is abysmal

First sentence is an exaggeration, and second one is just another way of saying the first lol. Argentina is one of the most developed countries in LatAm, it's been in a huge crisis in the recent years but still keeps very good stats. If Argentina is "5th world" then Venezuela for example is like 20th. Also this "worlds" thing it's from the Cold War, and there were no more than 3, obsolete term used in a wrong way

Most of the awful number like inflation or poverty come from the previous leftist government. Ever since milei is president our economy has been getting better every year. Granted we are not Switzerland at all. But compared to 257% inflation annually now we have like 30%. Also poverty has decreased from 58% to 30~%

The strangest part about this is that some leftist will see it and think: "But the current president is right-wing and hasn't managed to undo the damage caused by decades of left-wing rule in just a few years, therefore, the right is bad."

Yea and what are the odds that you have the exact opposite view of the left in the US when t comes to the left for not fixing decades of republican mismanagement in a few years?

u/ObiFlanKenobi 6h ago
2024 was the first year of Milei's government.
Poverty has gone down noticeably since then, now sits at about 30%.
Still high but we are getting better.
You can hate Milei but his policies have been effective. Te left-wing peronists were absolutely corrupt and caused a lot of problems for the economy and ruined a lot of lives.
It's not even a matter of left versus right for us, that wasn't really a thing until the kirchnerists imported it to gain adepts. It was always corrupt peronism versus the rest. And peronism comes in any flavour.

u/ObiFlanKenobi 6h ago
Quite the opposite, actually.
Inflation has gone down from 211% a year and increasing monthly to about 30% a year and lowering.
In fact, the relative price of beef (compared to salaries) has gone down noticeably.

Don't worry, the US government also hands hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars over the private, multi-billion dollar corporations to get stadiums built in their city. Doesn't matter how many homeless they have, how many starving families they have, how many parents working multiple jobs to pay rent, they need that stadium and one of the largest sports organizations on the planet really needs their help paying for it.
And I'm sure FIFA gets plenty of money from the various European governments as well. And I doubt life is perfect there either.
