It's beginning to look like Venezuela but with libertarians. It's quicker than I thought.

Venezueal is a locked country that's sanctioned to hell, Argentina is about to break incompetence records not ever seen before

If you think that you are under 20 or have been living under a rock.

Hell no. For Argentina to look like Venezuela, inflation must be 100,000%. I wish I was exaggerating. 1 USD is 40 trillion of the old Venezuelan currency pre-Chavez, the one the government has cut 9 zeroes to hide inflation ever since.

Of course, that doesn't mean that the situation in Argentina isn't looking dire.

Argentina isn't sanctioned at all lmao. Thinking Venezuela is a failure is exactly what the US and its allies want you to think with the ridiculous amount of sanctions. Can't have people see Socialism succeeding.

I lived in Argentina for five years. I’ve spent much time since then trying to convince people in the US that you have more rights and freedoms in Argentina. This might be changing now.
