Abolishing the military is a really bad idea because it takes decades to re-create it if you suddenly need it. It might be possible to judiciously shrink it if you build in certain mechanisms that allow you to increase it in times of need (such as some form of conscription and ongoing training of “weekend conscripts”). I realize that the Argentinian military doesn’t inspire political confidence among the people of Argentine. It’s given the country strong reasons to hate and distrust it. But you can’t expect your neighbors to always be friendly forever, so you need to maintain a military.
