Yes Sr, that's one of his biggest promises and greatest ambitions. He is not only explicit about it, his eyes shine when he says it.
The IMF is a cute harmless baby compared to what our own soviet state did to us. They have actually been the lesser of evils. Milei despises structures as the IMF but never put any blame on them simply because our past government recurred to it to keep the welfare party on. The IMF has even being lessening the interest rate the more Milei keeps performing well. We put on our own chains ourselves. Milei broke that ill socialist hypnosis on the youth and snapped them back to reality (boomers and elders are terminally lost).
Yes he will. That's his strategy to get rid of the peso in a viable manner. But then, he wants private mints to take the lead. It's all middle steps towards his ancap utopia.
I did not expect this much from him. We actually braced ourselves for the worse. A common meme among the youth in twitter is "this is much more than what I voted for" with an image of Goku on the background. Imagine if that's the kids. Two more years of keeping this path straight and it will be irreversible.
Thank you buddy :)
Very good question. I do see a future for BTC, but the peso is poised to disappear. Milei despises state-issued money, so the peso will be taken out of circulation in a couple of years. He wants to leave that to private mint houses. Pretty much like the current initiatives of Amazon and Walmart. He wants minters to compete freely on who delivers the best coin or token for what, and to that effect, his stated aim is to allow free competence of currency. One of them will naturally be BTC, who will gain its place by its own weight.
Very good question. First of all, whoever has the majority, dictates the rules. No strong-worded, bolded, underscored, all-caps written rule can do anything to avoid being overwritten by a faction that has the support of the majority. So, there's only one possible real long-term solution: to ensure the support of the majority around Milei's reforms.
A majority educated on Milei's ideas will always penalize those who vote against the tenets. That strategy Milei calls "Principle of Revelation", by which he ensures that those who go against the will of the people are always publicly exposed. That permanent threat of negative electoral impact has allowed him to garner the votes of the opposition to pass his reforms, in despite of having a minority in the senate. And when they don't, people reacts furiously, specially the youth, which is an asset Milei also ponders to his advantage, for they are the future majority. A ticking bomb for the opposition.
To keep that strategy going, Milei knows, and states, that the "cultural battle" must be fought eternally, so that people never again let themselves fall on the hypnosis of socialist irrationality. To that effect he permanently delivers speeches, and has assembled a team of ideological referents, with the aim to expand it. One such initiatives is the "Lighthouse Foundation". He has also always been a supporter of the "Students For Liberty" foundation.
Of course, layers of legal obstruction are being crafted to attempt to slow down an attempt to revert the reforms. But ultimately the democratic majority is the only way to ensure they're respected long-term, and to that effect, people must be educated to support the reforms themselves, not just the middleman in the senate who does.
Yes. It will last decades. Because once the actual stock is burnt, the state will start with the party of emission and debt, which can be protracted for decades and which will ever increase incentives to not to get out of the death spiral until it's too late.
Insufferably so. I would be compassionate if not for their pedantic attitude on how their own ignorance and age are somehow a source of respect and authority, while being solely responsible for all and every setback the country as suffered. We came out using the same democracy they used to drag us down. The country will be unrecognizably better after the generational cleansing.
Most appreciated k00b. Thank you. I will try to keep posting on the matter then to keep things straight. As you can see, I can tell both the good and the bad on equal level of criticism. I hope that gives some credibility to my account.
I too agree with your approach, but I tend to keep both negatives algebraically: do not trust the state, and do not trust the media. The truth table is thus:
- [(negatively viewed) * (state measure)] * (negative media review) => probably it's a positive measure
- [(negatively viewed) * (state measure)] * (positive media review) => probably it's a negative measure
They are all focusing on reaching ever more lame levels of negation.
They will never concede, for their self-perceived entitlement depends exclusively on negation, as for terraplanists.
Thank you Sr, appreciated. I keep doing my best to support this new path. I hope I can also make it to somehow add my two cents to the party Musk is promoting now.
By all means, things are going so much better and so much faster than I ever hoped the would, even in my wildest, most unhinged dreams, that I stopped being sensitive about it. It just do not feels real. After decades spent in a soviet shithole, you get used to it in the sense that this changes, what should feel normal, feels rare. And it's only accelerating.
That said, we are of course, as Milei himself always stated: "at least 5 years from starting to be a mediocre economy, 10 years from being a minimally decent economy, and 35 years from being a super-power, if the path is kept strictly".
Hello! I appreciate you summon me for this stuff.
I took a break from SN precisely because of this subject, since I became increasingly frustrated at the fact that no amount of proof and reasoning was able to make people relinquish their devotion to take legacy media up to the letter and fall over and over and over again for the exact same cliche manipulation tactics.
I came back recently to see if the airs had changed a little but nope, same thing, unchanged, undeterred: #1000741 . I intervened there only because it was k00b. I'm staying back again a little, I'm curious to see if the latest political events can shake things a lil' bit here.
