You must give the media their due. That they can take a miracle that improves literally everyone's lives in such obvious and happy ways, and somehow shape the narrative into "fascism", is an accomplishment of mind-boggling proportion. Let's hope their truly fascist media suffers a decline in popularity equal to or greater than our own in the good ole US of A. Merry Christmas, everyone!!
I knew I would be in for a pile of lies when I read that the news report was from CNN. Sure enough, I found it in the first sentence, where the report said that Milei was enacting "sweeping and painful reforms"
But since I've been reading these dispatches from the beginning, I had no idea what "painful" reforms he was enacting. Unless they count ending the feather-bedding that seems a national pastime for government non-workers.
Love the derogatory comments about Krugman and Reich. I'm so sick of listening to their absurd "economic" comments constantly supporting the Collective Parasites. Oh yea !... I guess they are collective parasites posing as intellectuals.
Foreign products on the shelves. I think Mr. T. should consider his tariff rule. Just an observation from My side of the ledger. Thanks Joel for the boots on the ground reporting.
If quality is not there , there will be no market. If I buy something and of inferior quality, then I will not but it again. As far as media , I agree , whole heartedly.

There is hope, isn't there?
Springing eternally
There is hope. But man is not eternal.

Let's just be grateful they're not flying planes, building bridges or screening for cancers...
You said: "economy growing at almost 4% in the third quarter" Did you mean "at an annual
rate of 4% in the third quarter" ?
It grew 3.9% for the third quarter vs the second quarter. (Not annualized.)
When has THAT ever happened? Kind of astonishing in this 4th Turning. That's the kind of thing that happens like 40 years ago.
Joel, I vote for it being a "Christmas Miracle". A positive present to the World. Thanks!
Thanks Joel for this encouraging report. May this flourishing continue!
Joel, the cheerleaders of 'orthodoxy'- aka collectivism - just loathe it when those of a libertarian leaning are proved right.
I wish you and your family a splendid Xmas and good fortune in 2025.
¡Viva la libertad, carajo! :)
had to look up bloviating. i needed to add new words to my arsenal

I wonder if the “foreign products” are of a decent quality, or the slave labor garbage from China lots of Americans buy?
I hope the folks in Argentina will embrace the “painful” lessons emanating from “facist” reforms 🙏
Cancel the legacy media!!

Ditto! New wealth sometimes burns holes in some folks wallets…hence the abundance of “discount” stores
Good way of looking at the "new" wealth. Thanks.
