Why would you lend money to Argentina? They will never pay it back, and if they did try they would destroy their economy

Argentina… DROP THE FUCKING PEG!
The one market reform that Milei will absolutely not even entertain, the one thing that kills Argentina again and again, its attempt at trying to peg its currency to the US dollar.

The problem with libertarianism, is that at some point you run out of other people’s money

So all the oligarchs, just to get that crazy POS in office, are willing to bankroll his broken government so much that it will cause the IMF to fold when they go bankrupt.
Truly amazing stuff. Can’t wait to see it all go up in smoke.

I thought r/dataisbeautiful had rules against political bullshit. Look at all these dumb fucking comments. Â _this is libertarianism._ and _this is socialism!_.Â
There could be some interesting political discourse, but for whatever reason, there’s no room for nuance or even having a basic grasp on the history or context on Reddit. Therefore, a political ban is really the only solution. Looks like the politics rule only applies to posts, not comments. Â

The old adage is there are 4 types of economies: developed, developing, Japan and Argentina.
Argentina should be successful based on resources on paper, yet it falls into perpetual debt it can’t grow out of.
