Patience is wearing down with President Milei

Karina and Javi are pumping up the cash in case they get kicked out of office.

If this is true it seems like they are just more of the same as before. That is the problem in this country. We can't get honest people in office. They campaign on change but they are more of the same. It is sad. At least in the USA they wait until they are out of office to cash in.
 
That's a big IF. I think the certainty that things would end badly was far higher under Kamala.
I thought that but honestly I am not so sure. I thought Trump would learn a thing or two from his first term in office. This is just madness what he is doing and the way he is doing it. I never thought I would say this but I miss President Biden......

When I bring these kind of things up to my friends there in BA they will say things like "yes but it's nothing compared to how much Cristina stole". I do not get that way they think. Does it really matter if it was millions or tens of millions?
 
There are many videos online of the police brutality to people. Open you eyes!
this is everyone's monthly reminder that Avocado is a moron and a communist (sorry to be redundant)

here's a nice dose of 'bodycams work and the 5% of crooked USA cops don't represent the overwhelming majority that work their asses off and improve their communities' for you guys:





fantastic discretion. bodycams should be mandatory around the world and all the corrupt cops would immediately quit (i've never met a good cop that didn't want body-worn cameras - it protects them as well as the public)

Agree everywhere should have bodycams. That way no he said she said.
 
I have always said that this turn around will depend on how much patience people have and I always said there will be a limit to how much patience locals will have. Just like before the elections, I forecasted that President Milei would easily win with polling I could see that he would easily win. Now, doing some informal polling, I'm seeing that things are drastically shifting fairly quickly. Even amongst my friends, support has shifted and it's about 65% disapproval.

People were ok paying higher costs for everything IF it meant hope but they don't have much hope and cost of living has drastically gotten more expensive. It's going to be interesting before the mid-terms but I'm seeing internally with friends and business colleagues support shifting away from Milei.
Boy did you call this @earlyretirement! How did you know so well? You said 65% and that is almost exactly what polls show now almost exactly!

People are tired.

Well I saw a while ago this isn't a sustainable model. I already knew the patience would wear thin, especially when when you have grifting going on. You can NOT ask citizens to be patient and endure austerity measures when you are taking advantage of them. Basically everything I posted the past few months on my company X account are all coming true.

It wouldn't be the first time someone told me I could see the future. Look what the former Minister of Economy and former President of the Central Bank is saying. Basically verbatim what I've been posting the past few months.

It's only logical that people would hit the wall with scandal after scandal. I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner but the salaries are really stuck against real inflation.

It's one thing to ask people to suffer but I see all of these politicians raising their salaries tremendously. That would piss me off if they say they can't raise anyone else and they are getting 3X raises and bonuses. Plus all the corruption stuff. It seems like it is daily now.

That is what I don't understand about their plan. They are putting all their eggs in a few sectors. But what happens if those commodities bust in the future and they only have those industries. It doesn't sound like a good plan.

Dang. 65% disappoval is about what it is now. Nailed it.
 
The guy is clueless. He says that everyone saying we can't make it to the end of the month is lying. But he doesn't know what anything costs.

Meanwhile his salary, Adorni, his sister go up 130% in 4 months.
