  1.  @warlock-uv7yn  Argentina is officially a developing country, one of the few that have slipped back from developed to developing. Unless it wants to revisit the horrific political strife it experienced earlier, it needs to institute social programs that pull people out of poverty. Just improving the economy won't cut it.

  4.  @warlock-uv7yn  Public education is a social program. Milei has threatened to abolish public education. I don't know what level of education you've enjoyed (I'm growing a bit pessimistic in that regard), but working and education go hand in hand.

  5. For better or worse, there's nothing common sensical about Milei. It's either sheer brilliance or complete madness. Most probably the latter.
