Except Atlas Shrugged is a snooze fest that could have easily been around 300 pages shorter. Did anyone actually read all 27 pages of Francisco's speech? Hardly inspiring rhetoric although the premise was sound.
I also enjoy the iirony that the denizens of Galt's Gulch were almost indistinguishable from their enemy, rather like the pigs in Animal Farm.
Yep. It seems logical and observable fact that any authoritarian system, whether socialist or capitalist
, end with very similar structures and behaviours. Unfortunately both systems tend towards authoritarianism.
In my opinion, this is because capitalism is usually served with social conservatism and socialism doesn't work without paternalism. Both involve telling others what to do. I've often said I don't have a party to vote for (in the UK) because I'm a fiscal capitalist and social libertarian. If we had a Millei here I'd be "voting harder".
Talk about bearding the lion in its den! I hope his plans for turning things around in Argentina don't require much in the way of cooperation from the leaders and bankers who sponsor the WEF, because, even more than before, the knives will be out.
This was a speech to inspire the masses, but unfortunately, the controllers of the media will do their best to ensure that it is never heard. A link to the full text of the speech that we could forward to others, would be most welcome.
Thank you! I read it in full, and sent the link to several family and friends. I recommend that others do likewise. I also copied the full text to my hard drive, in case this page gets taken down.
There is too much plaque in the system, a plaque that has formed over the last 80-some years of institutions designed by the various rotating casts of overlords, all with the aim of making sure the people that are not the overlords understand who their rulers are. This period overlaps the fake money era, the era of creditism, when the printing press can make you believe that its output is real.
I watched the whole speech, I was spellbound listening to every word. Even posted a link on my Facebook page. It reminded me a lot of Bill Bonners writings as well as Atlas Shrugged.
Maybe it is the start of a new era, let's hope so.
I can't imagine what those at Davos were thinking?
Combine your article on Milei with Anya’s post on how Lysistrata made peace between Sparta and Athens by getting the women to refuse to have sex with the warriors until peace was made and fast forward to today and see what happens. It’s been said that testosterone is the most powers force know to man so use it against the narcissistic men by denying them sex and watch them come begging for honesty, reason, and Justice!
Well, I think that pretty much answers my question as to whether he was a stooge or a fraud. This is an exciting chapter to witness. God Speed Milei.
The speech was as though lifted straight from Atlas Shrugged.
Couldn't help thinking the same thing. I wonder how many people in the room realized the significance of what was happening...

The same in that they all lived in fantasy land and the gulch was a collective of sorts. The fantasies were different though.
The Fountainhead was more concise.

Good move... things like this tend to be memory-holed by those who "know best."
Thank you, I downloaded to my computer along with the link.
wise...
Fantastic.... most important read in my 80+ years of existence on this planet!
Great idea! I'll look for one and include in in the above article. In the meantime, feel free to forward this one far and wide. Cheers!
Finally someone who gets it and told off the losers at the W.E.F.Hope and pray the Lord protects him.
We don`t want another J.F.K. God`s speed mr Milei!

Quite so. And by no accident. Best!
Joel excellent missive today! I was cracking up with your commentary. It was pithy, satirical and deliciously cutting at the same time. Bravo! 👍🏼
We’ve gotta have some fun from time to time, eh? Thanks for reading!

What were those in Davos thinking?? Who gave Sr. Milei the microphone?? Long live Milei!!
I’m kind of surprised the jilted organizers didn’t switch it off. “Technical difficulties.”

LIGHT AT THE END OF THE LONG TUNNEL.
Does this mark how far the woke pendulum will swing? I have a sense that the ordinary citizen has had enough.
Thank you for another great article. Your sarcasm is wonderful!!!
Largo vida a Milei!!
Thank you, kind sir!
Love it!
It's mind-blowing that people brush him off as "far-right". As if he has anything to do with nazis and fascists
Not people so much, but the Main street media.
I'm pissed. He's there and I'm here!

Problem: Milei will need support from some of those standing in the way.
Solution: He needs to learn how to gather figs from thistles.
Let’s hope he can do it.
It’s like the Mocking Jay travelling to the Capitol and laying down the gauntlet, viva el loco!
