- President Javier Milei has proudly announced in a televised address Argentina's first quarterly fiscal surplus since 2008.
The surplus, exceeding 275 billion pesos in March, marks a significant achievement for the libertarian leader's "shock therapy" approach in battling the country's triple digit inflation.
The surplus represents 0.2 per cent of the nation's GDP for the quarter.
"We're going to give everything to pull this country out of the hell we inherited," Milei said during an address on Monday.
Milei warned of the tough economic challenges ahead for the Argentine people.
"To us, inflation is a robbery and the fiscal deficit is the cause of inflation. Therefore, the zero deficit is not only a marketing slogan to this government but an order," he said.
"Therefore, don’t expect any public spending."
He also praised their resilience as the government aims to achieve a zero deficit.
"There isn’t any other alternative than surrendering to the feet of a people who decided to abandon slavery and take a long way through the desert to the promised land."
Imagine having a Fiscally Responsible government in 2024.
I can dream.....
Imagine your whole country is demonstrating.
@@FutureCommentary1 I can imagine a whole country protesting that they no longer get free money from other people.
Imagine if they start filling up their reserves with precious metals too 😵💫
🤯
Honestly, I cannot believe there is a politician that actually does what he says he will do.
You got that right especially when you have a libertarian leaning candidate who unlike the idiots of both parties in Washington actually do something about the budget rather than kicking the can all the time.
That’s what Libertarians are about, we go forward with our promises due to our dislike of the Government, and we’ll do anything in our power to make it as small as possible
Well the USA had one between 2016-2020
Too bad the rest of the politicians were doing EVERYTHING they could to slow him down...........
This guy turned the entire country around. The previous presidents were taking millions of dollars into their own business and family
He’s not a politician. He’s an economist with political power.
"Government is not the solution, government is the problem".
Godspeed Milei!

but will they let themselves get duped again by useful idiots that run on emotional empathy and spiral back into socialism? See this in Canada all the time. Just as we're about to crawl out of the muck, someone starts throwing words like fascism around and we're back to being taxed to death.
It got way past what it ever should have to get to that level. It is so bad that the usual leftist apparatuses that are used to abuse the public have broken down and been so weakened he has been able to accomplish more than he should otherwise have been able to to. Let's hope it continues that way and the public helps destroy those leftist agencies.
Yeah and even without a majority he was able to cut spending, something these weak sorry Repubs in Congress won’t do because they’re worried about Government shutdowns
Just because they were so badly screwed by the left that most of them realized that it was their last chance for free elections

VIVA Milei!
When you stop billions of spending by government bureaucrats, people will see inflation go down. THE PEOPLE, should be influencing the Supply/Demand curve, not the swamp!
Excellent perspective, but we need to cancel the duopoly!
Here’s something: the USA sends billions of dollars to Ukraine so they can buy old weapons from us. Why not just give them the weapons?
Because then the money wouldn’t go to the military-industrial complex. Ukraine is a way of feeding taxpayer funds to military contractors without it being direct. And you can bet the Congress swamp creatures get a stake in the contractors, and therefore profit from war.
Thank you, all this problem occurs because the govt is flush with guaranteed money and faces no economic consequences for terrible decisions
@@user-ze3sg6ix1u they’re not terrible decisions. It’s corruption via money laundering. The politicians have stakes in all the industries they pump full of money. Their favorite way of laundering is sending the money first to partners overseas as “aid”, under the condition that the money comes back to the American corporations the politicians have stakes in. That’s why they send money to Ukraine so they can buy our old weapons instead of just directly sending them the old weapons. The money comes right back to the military-industrial complex.
It's gone up fro 240%-300%...
Well done
The world is watching
Wish him and the Argentinian citizens the very best

LOL, Budget surpluses by definition crash the economy.
@@BRunner12 I am from Argentina, my country was great like the United States or Canada and it fell into misery because politicians spent more than they had, either printing money or borrowing money. Imagine it in your own life, if you spend all your money and then beg and then go into debt and waste everything, you end up living under a bridge. We had 19 economic crises and 17 of them were because the state squandered all the money and went into enormous debt.
@@Master_Potaterchief it was not caused by sovereign debt, many countries had and have higher debt to gdp ratio's than Argentina. Failure was not spending, it was where it was spent, industrial policy, pegging to dollar, etc.
@@BRunner12the State is too big. 20 years of spending more than what is earned .

@@mrvwbug4423 Nobody in the capitalist West is starving to death. How do you reconcile this with your hyperbole?
Good for Argentina! May they have more prosperity and success!
thank you very much 😊🇦🇷🖐️
Looks like the first president Argentina has had in decades who is worth his salary.
Actually he is donating his salary haha
He donated it when he was a deputy, because he had other jobs. Now, since he is president and is 100% dedicated to politics, he is not donating his salary, but he is paying his expenses (e.g. traveling on weekends).
He also wanted to lower the salaries of politicians but the law was not approved in Congress.
@@Master_Potaterchief He is iirc not allowed to have any income by law as a president, which means he fully depends on his salary and can't rely on his income from his business as he could before, which is why he used to raffle his salary before he became president and doesn't do it anymore.
God bless Argentina and Milei!
of course, when you arm and protect property rights, reduce government overreach and just leave people alone to get on with their lives you'll see prosperity and thriving populous... we could do it hear too.
Poverty has risen in Argentina.
@@astriddececco3005 yes, decades of socialism will do that.

A surplus is a very good sign of a great government. Argentina is going in the right direction.
A surplus is a sign that a government is taking more in tax than it is giving back. The exception to this are usually the close circle around the leader.
The question is: by refusing to spend taxes, will the destitution that causes be outwayed by a reduction in inflation and the destitution that causes. Given that inflation predictions for 2024 are the highest so far, that remains to be seen. The experiment is only at its beginning.
@@BB-sm8ey The surplus taxes will be spent on paying down the debts that are denominated in dollars. You have to stop the bleeding sometime.
@@joseph1150 or... the extraction simply breaks the economy once and for all, leading to a neighbouring country picking up the land for cheap through invasion ;-)
@@BB-sm8ey Chile doesn't have the military to do it, Brazil would have no interest in doing it. Millei is still dumping money into Argentina's military despite no external threats, so he either intends to turn his military on the people of Argentina to stay in power once the people decide he needs to go or he's going to start a war with the British again over the Falklands, which Argentina will lose again, likely even worse since the British military of 2024 is a lot more powerful than the British military of 1982.
We need him in America, We need him in Britain, We need him in Oz....
Yup, I'm not certain if there is a single nation in the entire Western world that has a balanced budget.
@@anthonymorris5084 a balanced budget is not always the intention though. If governments wish to grow the economy then they should spend more than they gain in tax in a "budget deficit", but if they wish to control inflation then they would have a "budget surplus" and spend less than they gain in tax. Milei is cutting spending so they can control their major debts gained under Peronism which is a rational decision.
@@CaptainCobbler Governments do not "grow" the economy. The private sector does. Governments can only lay the foundation conducive for the private sector to succeed and grow the economy. Governments spend on social programs, paid for from the taxation of profits, which is fine as long as they don't spend more then they have.
@@anthonymorris5084 Let me ask, what are your economic views? You sound classical in that you support the private sector but you sound Keynesian in that you think the government should smooth out market forces. I respect that. The invisible hand involves a lot of assumptions anyway.
@@CaptainCobbler I am a firm believer in free market economics. The evidence is overwhelming. I openly admit that capitalism has flaws. 200 years ago it was laced with flaws. We have been working toward improving it ever since. Mostly from Left wing demands like paid holidays, weekends off, a 40 hour week, minimum wage, health and safety and other worker protections and on and on.
While our goal should be to create equality of opportunity and lift people out of poverty I see no moral imperative to make everybody economically equal. I have never begrudged the people who have more than me or are more successful than me. I celebrate success and try to emulate them. Profits are nothing but positive.
I have worked in retail with low pay, and in a union shop as a laborer. I've been entrepreneurial as well, making investing a huge part of my life.
Capitalism requires a set of rules and these rules need to be consistent. Investors like stability. Constant government intervention in the market creates problems. Governments should be small and not run our lives. I believe in freedom, liberty and accountability.
I am fully aware of the need for government social programs, but I'm also fully aware that governments are horribly inefficient and wasteful. Cheers.

I didn’t think the people had the stomach for a shock therapy. But to hear that this short term trend could be lasting is good.
If and that is a big if, Milei is returning the surplus to the people - then I really under estimated his politics.
If he pays back (aka refunds the lowest tax bracket - he gives money in the hand of the masses. Two or three things will happen. The money will be spend and is growing the economy, the rate of money will accelerate (the economy will grow) private investment will take note and …. The economy will grow. So what I see Milei will get a triple return. So the questions are, when will the money being returned? Immediately or later aka in three months? How will the money being returned? Electronic transfers to bank accounts? Checks? As silly as this sounds retuning the money costs money.
My biggest hope for the people is that the domestic economy will kick start.
I know Milei is not a fan of government but he has to think for once how he will provide guarantees for micro loans which could be the third way how he repays the people, and actually creates another multiplication factor to grow this surplus and grow it via privat loans guaranteed by the people for the people and create exactly the free enterprise Melei needs for the Argentinian miracle.
Good luck 🍀 to the people of Argentina.
He will return the money to people reducing taxes, now is already going little by little, because politicians opposition is stopping fast changes and cant reduce as much as he could, but the goal of Milei is make Argentina has just a few main taxes

Wish him the best. All of the west needs this before it gets to Argentinas level of indebtedness. Especially Canada where I am from. We spend more now on debt service then health care at the federal level. Sad and insane wrapped in one.
What's really ironic is Canada doesn't even need a federal government. Every province acts like a sovereign state with it's own laws and policies. We have less integration than the European Union. We don't even have national health care, it's all provincial. The Canadian federal government is the greatest waste of money in history.

"Small victory"? Are you kidding? That is the understatement of the year (short year so far). A budget surplus for the first time in more than a decade and a half is incredible. Can he maintain it? Who knows. But, this is more than a small victory.

Why are people celebrating? Any government can cut their spending and will automatically have a surplus. The real challenge is what comes next when industries compensate by increasing their prices to cover the missing subsidies or when they start cutting employment raising the poverty rate even further with the potential of causing mass social unrest. Let's hope they don't go full totalitarian if the ones in poverty decides to start an uprising.
Kinda ok on what you say about the consequences of cut the subsidies and the prices are going up as well is a reality already here on Argentina but guess what is happening, people is supporting even more Milei's government policies, an uprising is very far away of Argentinians people, there are even people opposite that try to start the protest and make him fall, but even like this people don't follow them, everyone is having patience to see the inflation go down as soon as next month, and are making all the effort to resist till prices start go down, people is saying that can even wait 2 years to see results.
About the real challenge, that will be contrarrested by economy grown, this is not happening right now not because Milei management but because the laws that point to remove the ties of production businesses are still not approved on Milei's reforms that must be approved by Congress yet. When reforms start lots of investments are waiting to boost the economy, but the law need to be approved so the business have the institution backup solid
Go totalitarian is really not a problem right now, people is already talking to next year renovation of Congress where will vote for Milei party to give him a full power to control to approve all the reforms now opposition is taking down, and on law is almost to be approved is already a chapter where Milei will get more powers to manage things without congress, and people is fully supporting it. If milei need more power people will give it.. right now support of people directly is around 56% and if count indirectly goes up to 70% or more.. if Milei's can make the inflation go down will become politically untouchable, and people is already thinking on Milei's second period for sure
It will be a long and tough road ahead but this is the only way things will improve. Best wishes to Argenina!
I think I might write in Milei for US President in November.
Good for you Argentina good for you 👍🏻
