Which makes it the entire "yay libertarian" tone completely stupid.
It doesn't matter what the policy politics are. What's necessary is a non corrupt government.
The hyperinflation is invariably because of corruption, because when the corrupt steal everything and print money to keep the lights on temporarily.
Multifaceted shock changes like this smell of just another corruption shift. Deregulation is best accomplished by gradual reductions so all economic players have time to adapt. A shock shift probably means some insider is poised to cash in.
True libertarianism is insanity. Prohibition on murder and violence is a regulation. Use of currency is a regulation. The most libertarian unregulated market is illegal drugs, where mass murder and violence is used for business purposes.
Best of luck to Argentina.

- thrance 2y ago"No true libertarian". Milei self-describes as an "anarcho-captitalist", and cosplays as "captain ancap", a hero of his creation. This is as close to libertarianism as we'll ever get. Libertarianism is an insane ideology for insane people, it thankfully can't be applied in reality.
- marcosdumay 2y ago"if he actually acted like he talks he wouldn't have got inflation under control and would probably be already out of the presidency by now" Looks like today is the perfect day to keep repeating the things I've wrote.
