Javier Milei is destroying Argentina’s economy, making it a resource colony for foreign oligarchs

Geopolitical Economy Report

Feb 19, 2025
Argentina’s President Javier Milei, a self-declared libertarian and “anarcho-capitalist”, is promoting crypto scams and overseeing rapid deindustrialization. Manufacturing and construction are collapsing, while the financial sector, mining, and agriculture grow. Donald Trump and Elon Musk praise Milei, as the majority of Argentines live in poverty. The real economy is in crisis, but rich foreign investors rejoice as the stock market booms. Ben Norton explains how Argentina is being turned into a resource colony.

Social Security Official QUITS Over Elon’s DOGE Access

Feb 21, 2025

Due Dissidence
Follow Craig Pasta Jardula at ‪@pasta2go‬.
Keaton and Pasta have an in-depth discussion of what Trump and his band of merry tech billionaires may be up to—actually destroying Federal assistance programs—America’s social safety net—behind the pretext of “waste” and other idiotic programs used by the “WOKE” Biden regime. (BTW, Biden was openly in favor of shrinking social security, Medicare, Medicaid, and other vital Federal programs, also under the guise of fighting inefficiency and waste). What NONE of these libertarian crazies and their “liberal” accomplices ever propose is a measure of realism and compassion in managing a naked capitalist system. Or designing assistance programs without the multitude of tricks that cripple them at the very start. Like capping the social security contributions at a ludicrously low-income level.
