  The bald guy is a leftist. He didn't say WHY Macri borrowed money from the IMF. The reason why he did it, is he had to pay the debt contracted by the former president, the corrupt leftist Cristina Kirchner. Macri had to pay the maturity of the Bonar X (AA17) bond. Leftists only repeat a fabble they read in Marx books. They are stuck in the seventies and are responsible for the country's current situation.

  Many people do get upset with travellers, no matter where they go. I get this stuff too, from friends and family. No place is immune from gentrification or tourist woes. But lovely vlogs like yours can only help up understand, and take the fear out of seeing certain places. At the end of the day, people will travel, with or without the opinions of others. Keep being you, you are a delight to follow.

  With due respect, you need to interview someone who has a minimal level of education and understanding of the country's problems, instead of a person who just repeats things he sees and hears without understand causal effect and root cause behind all of that. Milei inherited a country with -15% of fiscal deficit when you count the treasury + central bank finances.....-15%!!!!! And that huge hole in the accounts was being filled by reckless money printing (given that absolutely nobody was willing to lend money to such reckless administration....) which led to a 271% of annual inflation in 2023....and accelerating dangerously fast when Milei took office in December....bringing the country to the verge of hyperinflation meltdown .....which would have been a catastrophic scenario bringing over 90% of people into poverty.......so Milei had to take a very radical shift in economic policy making a dramatic adjustment in spending to eliminate the deficit and balance the accounts immediately, and he said that very clearly both in the campaign and at his inauguration, and all along since, because that was the only way to avoid disaster.....and he said that this was going to very tough and that poverty would be increased, same with unemployment and other social trends....in the short term....and we are still in the short term...it is only 6 months + since he started......2025 will be a different year where all the hardship the country is going through will start paying off.....because when you cut money printing you bring inflation under control....when you bring inflation under control....salaries gradually start strengthening in real terms....and very importantly.....credit lending start flowing in the banking system....something not seen in Argentina since 2017.......due to the inflation problem......and plus once the bill to be passed by congress in the next days comes into effect then big investment will start to kick in as this bills provides legal certainty and tax incentives for big investment to flow into the country......in summary.....the situation is awful because the last administration left literally an atomic bomb just about to explore in the country.....and Milei had to take extreme measures to prevent that from happening.....it would be good that this man talks about the fact that for the presidential campaign, the minster for finance and candidate for the presidency that Milei defeated, spent the equivalent of 3% of the GDP (in a country with -15% deficit!!!!) to win votes and try to win the election....that is the level of recklessness, irresponsibility and evil the previous government had....and now the whole country is paying for that "party"....it would be good the interviewer learns a little more then truth!!!

  i hope you ve been enjoying our Country! The anthropologist you saw seems to me to have a more left-wing tendency, that is, he supports Kirchnerism, which is what created the disaster, not Macri. This disaster began in 2011 when Cristina Kirchner wanted to go above the institutions and remain in power forever. The economy reacted badly and she put a trap for the purchase of dollars that ruined many sectors that we depended on and are fundamental as is the purchase. housing and the place where Argentines save. All because in 2007 Nestor Kirchner fired the economy minister "Lavagna" who had a more traditional plan and who was the one who truly got us out of the crisis of 2001. Our problem was that they tried to establish 21st century socialism in Argentina, Macri's debt was not my cause, but a remedy for what was happening at that time. And the crisis of 2001 was caused by the theft of money from the Peronist political party 1 to 1, which was a solution to our problems with inflation and generated wealth that did not exist, and because it changed from a mostly status system to a private one. , they don't usually tell that. So the crisis in which a president resigned in 2001 was actually a civil coup d'état caused by Peronists. Cristina Kirchner put us in debt, but by "stealing" the money from retirees and Argentines, she increased much more than the debt with Macri. It's good to hear all the bells. Greetings from Argentina --‐------- El antropologo que viste, me parce que tiene tendencia mas de izquierda, o sea apoya al kirchnerismo que es em que creo el desastre, no Macri. Este desastre comenzo en el 2011 cuando cristina kirchner quizo pasar por arriba de las instituciones y quwdarse eternamente en el poderz la economía reacciono mal y ella puso un cepo para la compra de dólares que arruino muchos sectores que dependiamos y son fundamentales como lo es la compra de vivienda y el de el lugar donde los Argentinos ahorramos. Todo porque en el 2007 nestor kirchner echo al ministto de economía "Lavagna" que tenia un plan mas tradicional y quien fue el que verdaderamente nos saco de la crisis del 2001. Nuestro problema fue que trataron de instaurar el socialismo del siglo xxi en argentina, la deuda de Macri no fue ma causa, sino un remedio para lo que pasaba en ese momento. Y la crisis del 2001 estuvo provocada por el robo de dinero del partido politico peronista al 1 a 1 que fue una solución para nuestros problemas con la inflacion y genero una riquesa que no habia, y porque se cambio de un sistema mayoritariamente estatusta a uno privado, eso no lo suelen contar. Por lo que la crisis en que renuncio un presidente en el 2001, fue en realidad un golpe de estado civil provocado por loa peronistas. Cristina Kirchner nos endeudo, pero "robando" el dinero de los jubilados y de los Argentinos, aumento muchisimo mas que la deuda con Macri. Es bueno escuchar todas las campanas.

  Travis, ignore the negative Nellies. They are, at the end of the day, just jealous. Bottom line, tourism of any kind, in any country, brings in revenue. If a person didn't go to a particular country, no dollars would go there either. Simple as that. Keep up the good work.

  Some interesting questions you raise here. And having your friend come in and talk about Argentina clears up a lot for people who don’t have any idea what’s going on there or in most places. As you know, I’ve been following you since your Yucatan days. I think what I learned from you were insights and a different perspective on places that I was familiar with even when I speak the language. It holds true with other bloggers I follow. I don’t travel as far and wide as I once did. You are adding to the economy because you were spending money there. The naysayers on social media are almost amusing in the depth of their ignorance. So I agree with the guy below who told you just keep on doing it. There are people like me who have followed you for a long time who look forward to whatever you produce, and as you know from time time I write and make comments to you. Arriba Travis!

  So many places with triple digit inflation turn to just garbage in the street and chaos. Is Argentina an outlier in this regard? I've been to Panama City, and yeah, some dirt and garbage even with a pretty healthy economy. But it seems (a lot) more than BA from the vids I've seen. Wondering why if that's really the case. Nothing against PC; I've made money there, and enjoyed some awesome restaurants. Very Americanized and very similar to Santa Ana, San Jose CR. Buenos Aires seems a lot more European. Why the difference I'm wondering.

• 
  @TravelWTravisКүн бұрын

  That's such a great question and I wish I had asked Nicolas! Especially because they've had an inflation crisis for an extended period of time at this point. If I had to guess, I think it has something to do with still having strong unions representing those workers here, but definitely something to look into!

  I'm not sure travelers as in short stays are going to affect prices overall, the fact of traveling does increase people doing Airbnb instead of long term affordable rentals tho, that's going to be everywhere you go if a government or city doesn't regulate it. People like to think nobody outside of their north American or western European have money, but lots of people in Latin American countries aren't just well off they are filthy stinking rich. Big houses, malls and fancy restaurants aren't priced for foreign travelers, they are priced for the wealthy citizens

  I'm always fascinated by content creators obsession with the comment section. It's usually like 1% of the viewers. Some people have good intentions and many do not. In fact, many are children/teens with access to the internet, but no real understanding of how the world works. I don't know why worrying about those small amounts of people truly matters. Make the content you want and focus on the positive people that are here for it.
