He has some pretty interesting ideas. Dollarization would be good for Argentina, and he is very openly in support of Bitcoin and just flexibility of currency in general (everyone should be able to use their currency of choice officially). I don't think writing him off as "pro-dollarization" is fair. And it's cool to finally have someone stand up for freedom in Argentina
Dollar is the best singular standard of value in the world now, and there is no second best, without going to a composite currency. You all know that, right?

"Dollarization would be good for Argentina"
reply
that would be a good discussion..
you are probably rigth. Despite the bad things it brings, at the current state of the peso.. It would probably work for a while..
betting on the sick dollar is another discussion
reply
dollarization aka giving up on the printing power is not good for any country but the US
reply
well, honestly if your central bank is even more crocked than the FED.. then you chose the lesser evil..
reply
yes it's crooked, but at least the printing is in-house
reply
yes, i understand that.. but as i said, the lesser evil is the dollar,
other discussion is the current state of the dollar.. on brink of failure..

printing benefits those close to the printer. How can it be beneficial to put the printer far away? Imagine moving the Fed to Beijing.
reply
wait...

"Competencia de monedas que permitan a los ciudadanos elegir el sistema
monetario libremente o la dolarización de la economía." - this is the original program
He speaks dollar while there is ZERO mention to btc
you cant be serious on your comment
reply
There is no mention of BTC itself in the official plans, that's for sure, but re-read first phrase of the quote you posted here. He's talked about BTC and that quote might as well be a direct reference to it (although it's more of, again, "let people use the currency they want to use, not Argentinian Pesos")
reply
i noticed that,
But you know there will not be a popular vote..
