    Inflation Is Falling, But Argentines 'Are Not Yet Better Off': Milei's Gamble Under Fire

    It'll continue to drop in April. This inflation drop is something rarely seen in Arg. But also a lot of taxes need to be removed once the govt puts the central bank in shape. This will allow restaurants to have less tax pressure hence reduce costs.
