Natalie Alcoba, an Argentine-Canadian journalist, and Monica DeBoll, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute, dive into the controversial presidency of Javier Milei. They discuss his drastic cuts to government jobs that dropped inflation but drove up poverty. The duality of Milei's impact is examined, with supporters like Trump's advisors viewing him as a model for reducing government in the U.S. The conversation also touches on Argentina's complex economy, the role of the dollar, and the challenges ahead with the IMF.
