Guillotine, the one thing the rich fear.

Saying taxes are theft has to be the most brain dead take. Even if your government is corrupt, its not the fault of taxation.

Let's solve "economic inequality" with more statism!

I can vote the State, I can't vote the CEO.

Obviously, wanting to reduce the monopolical privileges of politicians

That's the citizens job, not his. Milei just wants to reduce the privileges of those disagreeing, at no point would Milei want to reduce the privileges that allows him to unilaterally reduce the political privileges of those opposed to him. Let him actually put forward something that actually indicates that HE wants less power and we'll talk about this aspect.

public spending and taxes

Again it's the citizens that dictate that. I can vote for people wanting to build something in the State, not a CEO that wants to build a highway for the goodwill of mankind.

erradicating the central bank

Nobody wants to be the "bad guy". Many nations are suffering the fate of too long supportive monetary policy without fiscal policy to follow. Same can be said about the USA. They rode too high and too far on quantitative easing at some point the party ends and nobody likes being "that guy". Again, that's mostly on the backs of the capricious voters who don't like mild inconveniences so they hold out for major ramifications. And why? There's way less disposable income in the hands of the many. So literally any inconvenience is a massive blow to their way of life. And it shouldn't be a hard guess for you to figure out why so many in the public have so little.

increasing work flexibility and advocating for individual rights and liberty

Every "work flexibility" I've ever seen pitched is just code for turning people into wage slaves. Sort of how like the UK got a lot of "trade flexibility" with Brexit. Once I've seen a working example that didn't actually fuck everyday citizens over, we'll talk.

As for individual rights and selling organs. I'm actually cool with that. There's quite a list of incredibly wealthy people I'd like to exercise those rights on.

fascist af

It's just that every time I've seen someone purpose breaking the system to make it better, they just want to break the system so that they can profit. I literally expect nothing less from Milei. This is the age of grift, why should anyone believe any one who pitches "I swear, I'll build something better, just first give me the power to destroy every protection you have first." Sure buddy, sure you will.

If taxes are robbery then using public infrastructure like roads without paying taxes is also theft.

Taxes exist because public goods are actually good, and benefit everyone. The sum of the parts is greater than the individual parts. Your taxes pay for roads and public transit which are used to get people to work to create wealth for a community. It turns out the thing that makes humans great is community and banding together. Taxes are a formal way of doing that.

Now, we need equitable taxes, but that would involve taxing the rich proportionally. This is economically sound because wealth doesn’t trickle down and the mega wealthy are, well, mega wealthy because they hoard wealth. That money would be better spent creating better roads, better public transit, better education, or in short, a better community. The prospect of a better community only upsets those who are not members of the community, because their insane wealth puts them in a different class, and those who think defending that class will somehow get them privilege. The only privilege we need is a better community.

The problem is when crooks privatize these things they steal billions of dollars worth of taxpayer money. Yes Argentina is messed up, but it's because of corruption. Privatization or socialization, both will fail because of corruption.

Like, private school or public school, they both fail if the principal is stealing money, this isn't a leftist/rightist issue.

💤

There are no borders, individual rights or liberties without taxes. You become a subject to whatever country's citizens pay enough taxes to take you over and use your resources and labor for their benefit.

I cant believe an actually informed comment exists on this thread, everytime Milei pops on here its an Article calling him fascist and everyone on the comments agreeing to it

I never said that...
