"Market-friendly Macri restored international credibility in Argentina by reneging on all of his economic premises and plunging Argentina into horrific unemployment and skyrocketing inflation"

Its a mistery why the people didint vote for him.

Question: what is Argentina's local fascist party, and what is their level of support at the moment? Because I have a feeling that when Fernández fucks everything up in the next four years, nobody will trust Macri's neoliberals again, and their support will skyrocket.

Alternatively, what are the chances that Macri's neoliberals will do a Boris and adopt said local fascist party's policies wholesale?

Biondini, our facist edgelord only got 0,24% of the votes. There is no chance of a facist gov.

Our benevolent leader just annunced some measures to mitigate the loving explosion of his goverment:

a 2000 pesos bonus to workers (about 30 bucks)
an extra 2000 pesos if you pay an earning tax.

This is hilarious, I lost about 30% of my salary value, but thank god they gonna give me 30 bucks.

Haha you're right, wow. I was expecting more price inertia. The dumb wooden dishes I wanted to buy are 8% up from Monday. Stupid mercado libre Arg won't accept foreign cards!

So, umm, how long until salaries rise 30% to match?


About a year depending on the union you belong. Last month i got a 10% raise, that didint cover the last 6 months of inflation.

Let me tell you a sad tale:


When I started working (about 8 years ago) my salary was close to 1000 dollars.

After 8 years and several raises in the same company. My salary is worth 640 dollars.
(Way above the minimal wage)

how did you make the switch from psych to accounting, finished another degree? or took some kind of course?

When you enter high school you can choose different orientations, one is accounting. I'm a "Perito Mercantil"
I started working here to support myself while studying, when I graduated it became difficult to start my own practice, and soon after macri happend. I can't leave a work that pays moderately well and have health benefits, less now that my wife is preagnant.
I now have my own practice, but it doesn't generate enough money to support a family.

I always failed accounting subjects. but it turns out that in the end I can perform quite well.

Meanwhile in Argentina, Milei imposed a series of economic measures.
In his campaign he said that the adjustment was going to be paid for by the political caste.
On Tuesday they announced that they are withdrawing subsidies from services and transportation, devaluing the dollar by 114%, and increasing taxes on services in dollars.

All measures that destroy the middle and lower class.
In the end the middle and lower classes were the enemy.

Milei has just issued a decree with 30 points. Among them, it repeals laws that regulate the prices of private health care, frees the purchase of land for foreigners, allows the privatization of state companies, repeals the law that protects against the indiscriminate burning of forests, eliminates control over rental prices. and basic foods, modifies labor laws and compensation. In my neighborhood at least people are starting to protest.

How much does it cost now? This page says $0.8/l which is :lol: probably shouldn't have been subsidizing fossil fuels

https://www.globalpetrolprices.com/Argentina/gasoline_prices/

If you take the price of the official dollar, it is approximately 1 usd/l. In the parallel dollar 1.20 usd/l but you also have to take into account how much the minimum wage is in Argentina: Approximately 160usd. A month ago with a minimum wage you bought 400L, now you buy less than half.

Could we get an update from the Argentinian goon(s) on the ground?

Things are getting complicated, Milei is dedicated to antagonizing absolutely all the governors of the different provinces, in this last week, a "debt" was collected for the money that had to go to the province that is the main oil producer. In response, the governor of the province told him that if he did not transfer the funds, he was going to stop the production of gas and oil.
And the president, in his immense wisdom, decided to respond by retweeting a photo of the governor with his features photoshopped to make it look like he has down syndrome.

This was last friday.

To exemplify how bad everything is going, in December I hired a health service, 87,000 pesos. Today the invoice for March arrived for 220,000 pesos. almost 300% increase in 3 months.
