In Argentina, President Javier Milei has screwed the economy up so badly he needs a $20 billion bailout. That’s because his “free market” economics don’t actually work.

    Wait a moment, wasn’t Argentina’s economy in the toilet already? If it happens like Mexico in the 80s, this 20 billion loan won’t prop the economy, but the pockets of government officials and robber barons.

      Regardless of the state of Argentina’s economy and government, this is a $20 billion gift from one fascist to another. Trump is probably hoping for Millei to back any move against Venezuela the US might make.
