I often feel like political coverage of Latin and South American countries tends to focus a bit too much on the presidents. It's easy to forget that these countries have very American-style political systems, in which the Congress has a lot of power and can oppose, slow-walk, or even impeach the president. I feel like in recent years, tensions between presidents and congresses who hate each other has become a pronounced theme of Latin and South American politics, and it's why no matter how wild and flamboyant the president is, or how extreme right or left he is, the big problems never seem to get resolved because there is no broad public consensus regarding what should be done.

​@@stevestrangelove4970this is not actually the case for LATAM. That is the other side of our political game. We have no parliament, we have congress... Ironically, we don't now how to parley. In the majority of issues, the outcome is determined by the will of the party. 8 hour long hearings before ballots are cast are useless, since no one will shift their ideologically driven positions. There are also far less "díscolos" (don't now how to translate, google says it's "wayward"). Hence much of the executive's actual power to do stuff depends on how congress seats are distributed in relation to the president's party or coalition. In Argentina's case this is specifically difficult because Miley is not only an outlier, but also because congress is a mid-term election

Hopefully the announced strong attitude against any non-constitutional movements might actually be stopped within the law.

Aligning with standards doesn't make it better. For what reason are the standards better? Countries like China, South Korea and Australia don't have independent central banks. Their growth has been much higher and inflation has been much lower. Besides what is central bank independence? The Fed itself has long had a dual mandate - to keep inflation down and to ensure decent growth. Where there is some tension between the two aims, the Fed has to make a judgment and would usually listen to the views of the administration in the White House. Like right now.

That's realistically their only way out, Milei is gonna go for the low hanging fruit but it's impossible to fix the budget without cutting subsidies, which is unlikely considering 70% of the population uses them and will never give them up.

His plans WILL reshape Argentina (whether for the better or worse can only be speculated at this point), but they will cause a pretty large amount of chaos during the transition period, which may take 5-10 years to fully settle out. If he's going to be able to do this successfully, he has to prepare the people for that disruption and it has to be handled very carefully. This is a case where success has to be built on success. He has to do this in successive layers in order for it to succeed the way he wants. If he tries to move too much at one time, the infrastructure some of these changes will rely on simply won't be there to support them. On Dollarization, I am not so sure that's a good idea because of problems with the dollar is presently having and might have in the near future.

Something that repeats itself after election is that voters forget that parliament is where reforms must have a majority in order to be implemented.

Small correction, he is actually a Libertarian.

As a Chilean, I do hope Argentina recovers and become as succesful as they can be, not only because their current state is so terrible, but having them as rich neighbors can only be good for us. Thing is, Milei's proposals (which I doubt he can do considering his minority at Congress) would entail so much pain and chaos as Pinochet's neo-liberal measures did here back in the 1970s. Those reforms created a terrible economic crisis in 1982, when a huge % of people lost their jobs. No doubt that would also happen in Argentina. As a note, I know so many people think Pinochet's economic measures "saved" us, but in reality our GDP did horribly until democracy came back in 1990 and we could reform the Constitution and starting implementing some social-oriented policies. Even then, reforms weren't as deep as they needed to be, and we still are grappling with that. A radical neo-liberal economy simply doesn't work; there's a reason why Chile has have huge social unrest in the last decade...social inequality and a lack of accesibility to things like good health and education for the lower-class are real. As you say, Argentinians will probably reject the pain these reforms would create, even for a promise to be developed in 30 years, as Milei says. In our case, because Pinochet was a dictator, people couldn't really oppose the reforms...hopefully, Milei isn't thinking about that. Still, Argentina can learn from us; Chile nowadays is an open economy, with a lot of free-trade agreements, a responsible fiscal policy, an independent Central Bank, public-private partnerships to construct public infraestructure, etc. - all things they lack, and that have been good for us. But Milei seems to see only the good side of liberalization, when in reality it also has a -big- bad side. PD: There's an additional reason to oppose dollarization: organized crime. In the last few years transnational gangs have been wrecking havock in LatAm, and one of the worse cases has been Ecuador, precisely because of dollarization. It makes money laundering easier!

Being an economist grants no powers to solve Argentina’s financial maladies. Brazil’s Fernando Henrique Cardoso term had no economist at the highest office. He had economists under his tutelage , but himself, a career politician and social sciences academic brought no credo to his ability to quash Brazil’s runaway inflation. A series of compromising measures rather brought results. And like Miley , most state owned companies were in the selling block. And Brazil’s currency was on a floating rate. No fully dollarized , although many savers stashed US dollars.

Could Argentina follow a similar path to Cambodia with respect to currency? In Cambodia, there are two currencies that legally operate parallel to each other. There is the US Dollar, which can be used anywhere in the country, and there's the Cambodian Riel, which is a currency peg to the US Dollar. In Cambodia, prices are expressed in both US and Riel and you can pay for goods/services with either currency, or even a mixture of currencies. When you go shopping, your change could be given to you in a mixture of currencies. At bank ATMs, you can withdraw in either Riels or US Dollars. It's a system that has served Cambodia well. Maybe the Argentine Peso could be pegged to the US Dollar and then the laws could allow the US Dollar to be used parallel to a pegged Peso?
