You stated it much better than I. There are some things I appreciate about Javier Milei (e.g. rejection of Communism, which has been disastrous), but it seems like he ignores the half of economics he doesn't agree with such as saying "market failures are impossible". That's an obviously false statement as negative externalities do most certainly exist and politics is a real thing. The only thing I can think of is that they're okay with the problems getting REALLY bad and then letting the market try to fix them, which is just dumb. If you made antibiotics super cheap and available to all and they became even more overused, millions could die from antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria. Sure that might spur some new developments, but it's no guarantee. We might just be back in the dark ages prior to having effective treatments for common ailments. But hey...at least the market isn't infringed on (sarcasm). I do understand their frustration with the beauracracy of government and how parasitic it can be.
