    Or we could perpetually redistribute the excess wealth of the rich so everyone can have proportional spending power again.

    Ir we could tie min wage to inflation.

    There’s better ways of fixing income inequality than making everyone unemployed and homeless, but i guess it’s time humanity learn this economic lesson AGAIN instead of making correct decisions.

      There is not enough wealth in Argentina to distribute to all the poor people. You need to grow the economy first. But if you print a lot of money and spend it, you get inflation.

      So Milei is first getting spending and inflation in order which is cratering the economy. But at least it solves the budget and inflation problem.
