Libertarian outsider Javier Milei won Argentina’s presidency promising a radical shakeup to fix decades of policy mismanagement, a strategy that resonated with a populace suffering under a nosediving economy, a prolonged currency meltdown, and one of the world’s fastest inflation rates.
He has tons of controversial policy proposals. None of them will ever happen since none of the parties support him and he doesn’t have a majority to push anything through.
The only thing the Presidency in Argentina controls is the department of finance.
He has talked about using referendums to push non-fiscal issues, but none of those issues (like viewing abortion as murder) have anywhere near a majority in the population.
