World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

So how exactly do you think the current administration will fix those mistakes?
If we're talking specifically about inflation, stricter monetary policy, currency changes Milei has suggested, lowering the deficit, free market policies (stopping price controls for instance) should fix the situation.
If these things are successfully implemented, it should lead to increased trust in the economy, which in turn will help everyone, poor the most.
What's to stop corporations from exploiting consumers if there are no price controls? Free Markets don't exist in our current world, especially not in any developed countries. Lowering the deficit? Okay. Sure. Just lower the deficit.
Do you know how to lower inflation? It's to raise interest rates until you force a recession. Increased trust in the economy? How do you know?
Competition is the main force. Of course things like ownership and other basic rights need to be enforced by the government. There are sometimes cases where the markets are working so badly that price controls might not be the worst option out there. But usually governments use it too easily, and for a known reason. Because it's the populist thing do: it gets them get votes with practically none of the responsibility of the mess they make.
This is one the main reasons why they remain on that stage instead of climbing to (or staying in) the 1st world. Because they don't have free markets. Bolstering free markets is what I believe Milei is trying to do.
I'm sorry, my Dude
Actual answer does not automatically mean right answer.
It's a Text-Book answer, I don't know what's not right here.
The question is "what will the current administration do", not "what is the textbook way"...
I cannot know what the current administration will actually try to do and even less what they will actually achieve, but Milei has certainly talked for all of the policies I've listed.
Well, that's an answer...
I suppose you claim to know what happens in the future?
Nope
Exactly. It reads as someone who doesn't understand what they wrote. And it's still not correct.
It's all good, I hide those things and Lemmy doesn't have The Algorithm anyway. At least yet.
