EP73: Will Javier Milei Be A Libertarian? - Gracearchy with Jim Babka

Will Javier Milei actually follow through and be a libertarian? The news has shocked the regime. We've been treated to nonsensical headlines like "Argentina Elects Extreme Right Wing Libertarian" or the breathless conspiracy theory that Javier Milei is the product of a network of libertarian billionaires. Perhaps a person who has worked as a professional libertarian for a quarter-century can provide accurate insight! Javier Milei has quoted Hayek and Rothbard. He's labeled himself an anarcho-capitalist. But when it comes time to govern, will Javier Milei actually be a libertarian? You'll learn important things about the task ahead of President Milei in this episode because we cover... - What is a libertarian? The media doesn't know. We explain. - What is life like when there was 5% poverty a decade ago, but now it's 40%, AND... - What is life like with triple-digit inflation and state price controls? - What is Peronism and what is a Justicialist? We also reveal the surprising American politician who is most Peronist. And we dig in to the things that concern us as outside libertarians looking in, such as... - How is fixing the economy similar to addiction recovery? Hint: Action must be quick and thorough. - How will he overcome all the different forces that are stacked against his success? And we conclude with a surprising and personal gracepoint.
