    Always a big fan of more western influence over south and central american countries.

    Not even joking, they have a murder culture that needs to change. It doesn’t surprise me at all that gangsters have such a presence there.

      Yeah, more northern hemisphere influence is just what they need. It’s not like that already let to Operation Condor and Milei.

        Milei seems to at least be fixing inflation. It’s already down to 117% from nearly 300% in April. He has been in office just over a year and reversed a very troubling inflationary trend.

        Time will tell if he’s a positive influence for Argentina long-term. The changes have certainly been painful in the short-term, but if lower inflation leads to higher investment and growth, it could fix some of the worst of the economic problems.
