Good wine and good beef? Definitely somewhere I need to visit. And compared to the “Austrians” people joke about living down there, happy this one is calling the shots. Wish there was a British milei with a chainsaw!!!!
Look at what he does not what he says (IMF, Support for Zionists/Apartheid/Genocidal regime, VASP rules etc). Argentina is beautiful and deserves the best, but not because of this clown.

“ austerity, and economic discipline”??? It’s not possible that Jeff booth is falling for the banana on the tailpipe. The Argentinian creep was just like the Italian bitch like all other socialist puppets they promise freedom” and then deliver the UN agenda austerity and privatization through NGO’s so nine truths one lie Jesuit trick I also heard Jeff comment that the election that’s coming up in Canada is gonna make some kind of change in this world???? That’s really deceptive again this is a very clever man who Jake Dorsey…. Of well. Here we go again. Long live bitcoin strong open and free. $$$

If he actually shuts down the central bank and removes the associated moral hazard, allows interest rates and choice of currency to be determined by the free market, then his economic agenda is one that is truly liberal and anti-socialist and anti-collectivist.

Milei is a globalist puppet.
I'm afraid and concerned, sooner or later he's going to have a fatal "accident"... This is valid for Bukele also. Hope I'm wrong and, in fact, I'd love nothing more than my country's elected leaders follow the example of these people and stop being the EU's bitches and the most "well behaved"! Portugal is the first country in the EU to adopt a digital ID. Starting small with Health Service access online, but the first step is taken and slowly it will be generally implemented. Freedom is an illusion! F

are not the pillars of a prosperous society things like rule of just law, lack of hunger, education, safety/peacefulness...? stuff like this. some socialism is really super good, beneficial, and uplifting for societies. i have no doubt here. nuts that many people don’t see this. it’s deranged to keep pounding the table with the word “freedom” and trying to make people believe that any & all collective projects are bad.

Socialism creates a world of despair. The pillars of civilization have never been created by a bureaucratic state. The United states today is just the last example of failed socialism. After starting centralizing education, medicare,.medicaid, social security and all that socialist shit, the quality of life went to the bottom. It's not that socialism fails. It works perfectly for what is designed to do: create a land of irresponsible and weak people in need for help from birth to death enslaved under the oligarchy of politicians and bureaucrats who keep all the rights and resources for them. The beginning stage where they give free services to the population creating debts that cannot be repaid is not socialism, it's the weakening of people and the economic system on purpose. .

Thank you for making us aware of this speech. Just watched it and find it truly wonderful he stood there and basically relayed the BTC message around freedom in every aspect for everyone. I just hope nothing happens to him, as has in the past with leaders trying to cut ties from this tyranny.

~some~ socialism is necessary and good for a prosperous nation and thriving society filled with productive individuals.

No it's not. The only real cure for a thriving society is families and friends. No government should be involved into redistributing wealth or help. I always refused government help and I will never claim my retirement because it's all bullshit to make people dependent.
I am looking into this case with interest. Not sure how it will end but maybe he will be somehow successful. It is not an easy task for Milei but I wish Argentinians all the best.

When is this guy going to get orange pilled?
What socialist measures specifically? And who decides that? Socialist measures place decision-making in the hands of a central authority, and the problem with this is that not everyone will agree. While some people benefit, others are harmed. True equality comes from allowing everyone the equal opportunity to help themselves, free from the interference of a central authority. A system based on voluntary decision-making ensures fairness. Equality of opportunity, rather than enforced equality of outcomes, respects personal agency and prevents inequality.
Any and all collectivist projects that don't require violent repression or coercion of others are ok. You're free to start any such project, as long as one of the project requirements isn't violent expropriation of resources from others... I hope you don't feel that this is a deranged starting point?
If in a society filled with productive individuals you introduce 'some socialism' it flips the incentives and the productivity begins its race to the bottom. Farmat's principle, the path of least time or least resistance, somehow applies to the individuals.
What he does is beat the inflation and lowering taxes in only 6 months. I do live in Buenos Aires, and suffer kirchnerismo. Please, don't talk if you don't know.

I regret to disappoint you, but under Milei's government, the commercialization of Bitcoin by banks, which offered it as part of their services, was banned in Argentina. Without Bitcoin there is no freedom. He's a good speaker, though, that's for sure.
That’s wonderful, but why the fuck is he funding more military action and why does he support the murder of children in Gaza? Are these just inconvenient side effects and hoops he has to jump through, which is worrying, or is he really a Cunt, which is worrying?

I will be going to Argentina and plan on living there for at least 6 months to a year.
He's a fan of free market currencies and a friend of Bukele's. I have to assume he's working to overturn that ban, it's just down the list a bit.
Socialism is the cancer of society. It fails to bring what it promises every time and typically results in Democide given a long enough time period. Many books have been written on this subject. If you're ready to understand, no one handled the subject better than Ludwig von Mises "Socialism."
People who cry for anything but freedom are nothing but mass murderers, or fools that support mass murderers.

Ok by what measure does the United States have "the most intelligent people on earth"? I have read some delusional stuff but that somehow Milei is anything other than a globalist corporate tool is laughable. He talks good sometimes but his actions belie him. The idea that Trump is going to "save" anything is equally laughable. This is the talk of children. Daddy Milei and Daddy Trump will save us! Neither of you understand what is really at play here. It isn't some 4d chess with the deep state. It is simply the deep state changing tactics. The reasons they don't like Trump are far more presidential than all that. He's just a bad face and voice for empire but empire must continue. This hero worshipping mentality is not befitting of free people. Kill your heros
There are many Jews, especially intelligent ones, who see the genocide and theft in Gaza for what it is. Therefore, I fear that his efforts to “decimate government“ could ultimately prove to be a ruse.
Yes, his speeches are great. I agree with you. Being from Argentina, I would suggest you wait a while before visiting us. Although I agree with him in his speeches, his policies do not align with what he says. Property rights are only partially respected in Argentina due to wealth taxes i.e., and this wasn't fixed for now. Also, FX intervention continues (so no free market) .... My point is: let's see what happens before coming!!! It would be great to have you here anyway.
I went to Buenos Aires two months ago, and I loved how things were. Talking to people, it's not that everyone loves Milei, but they really value what he's doing. I heard this several times: "Those who want to work will do well, but those used to being supported by the state are the ones who don't like him." The country feels much more orderly and safe compared to a few years ago. Make sure to enjoy the great food on your trip! 😅🥩
Its a long flight. Make sure to tag a shorter one on top and visit the south. BA is a nice city but the glaciers and the fjords are truly magnificent. If you're into fly fishing, DM me and I'll put you in touch with a great guy who has a rental close to a great river, make his own flies and does a mean traditional patagonian lamb!
The reason they don't like Trump is because Trump got a hold of all the blackmail of all the global leaders, CEOs, Hollywood and many other. They have been murdering, raping, scarifying, eating, human trafficking and many other Satanic and evil practices. It's all on tape. Trump alone is not going to save America. Trump alone has no power. Trump is just a man. It's the US military empire who has designed and planned this operation for many decades. An operation to take down the globalist bankers by exposing them and opening up the eyes of the America people and the world. The evidence is out there. You should do the research but like every normie out there. It just upsets you and think we are worshiping Trump without doing your own research. I have no idea about Milei but he got rid of the central bank and is implementing libertarian politics which is what every country is about to do thanks to Trunp & military. Trump 2024!
If this was a ruse then it's a really bad one because he's already done 10x more to reduce govt than any other country you've ever heard of!

I still need to make my way to El Salvador 🇸🇻
I forget to point out that the USA provides a bit more freedom for businesses and people compared to all the other countries in the world so that extra freedom goes a long way and attracts people from all over the world to do business in the USA and immigrate there. When Trump comes back they are going to get rid of almost all taxation which is going to attract even more entrepreneurs and businesses as the USA will be a libertarian free market capitalist society. There will be big money to be made and it will attract even more intelligent people to the USA. Small countries are going to have a hard time attracting immigrants to their country and their infustracure is lacking and freedom is lacking too. Trump 2024!
He's no Bukele. He is partnering with globalists. Don't be fooled by this grifter. All talk and no major change. Even looks like a psychotic clown. image
Whoever the incompetent is that is governing Argentina, I think you should visit the country anyway, because it will drive you crazy.

I can't even begin to unpack all the delusion here. Good luck to you.
I spent a few weeks in Buenos Aires in early 2019 and was very very nice. I believe that if one lives in SOHO it's probably fine. I remember back then people telling me not to go too much around, especially after sunset.

As someone as smart as you understands very, very well, the effective symbolism The Nazi swastika (the ancient Sun wheel symbol) allied to the rising sun of militarist Japan and to Mussolini’s would-be neo-Roman blackshirts all point to an inverse eclipsed sun of destruction. What was the rationale behind the eclipse of the sun in your corporate logo?
You will love it, Jeff! The humor of the Argentinians is incredible and their talent to manage chaos!

Avez-vous vu dernièrement les informations sur les argentins ? Moi j'en ai lu sur la situation économique les argentins sont actuellement comme en 99 vivent dans une situation économique insupportable concernant la pauvreté pour un peuple qui a appris à se être résilient pas trop quand ils sont capables de casser toutes les structures pour se doter de quoi survivre... rappelons bien leur histoire...depuis si ça ne fonctionne guère ils iront vandaliser tous les magasins suite à avoir une armée sur le dos..prions que la diaspora Argentine les soutienne c'est toi ...Tous ceux qui sont dans le Bitcoin devraient peut-être peut-être prévoir un fonds de secours en termes de solidarité sur ces moments de transition très difficiles que vivent tous les pays qui ont abandonné les fonds du Fonds Monétaire International plus particulièrement et n'oubliez l'Afrique ils sont nombreux à sortir du système monétaire de certains pays qui les avaient colonisés à une certaine époque.. Grosse réflexion à mener solidairement mais pareil que lorsque les camionneurs canadiens durant la covid...c'est un accompagnement sur le long terme.. merci Jeff
Jeff, what is going on in argentina right now is amazing. Hopefully Miele is successful in not only fixing Argentina but hopefully that will serve as a model that all other countries can look at to improve. You should definitely visit. I recommend going soon. So you can see the before and after. Right now the country is still struggling but with my family down there I have never seen more optimism than now!
