Decline is a choice. That’s true in Argentina as well as in America!

“Apparently it took Milei just 9 and a half weeks to balance a budget that was projected at 5% of GDP under the previous government. In US terms, he turned a 1.2 trillion dollar annual deficit into a 400 billion surplus. In 9 and a half weeks.”

You damn sure decline is a choice. For example Milei decided to decline everyone's wages, pensions and savings through hyperinflation and austerity.

It's not a question of whether it can be done, it's a question of how (in)human you have to be to decide to do it anyways despite the suffering it causes.

I know literally nothing about Argentina. I even had to lookup how to spell it. It may sound silly, but I want to ask you this. 

Is it more or less humane to cut off tiny pieces of an arm over long periods of time, or cut it off all at once and be done with it? What would you personally prefer be done with your arm?

I'd rather not have any part of my body chopped only because the 20 families that have ruled the country since colonization need to keep profiting.
