    I have no idea what will happen this could either end predictably (Argentina suffers) or unpredictable (Argentina somehow through the help of the US and the grace of god goes through a golden age)

      The result is more poverty and even less sovereignity. It already happened in the 90’s with Menem. He is destroying our local business

      I assure you it will be the former. Argentina is just simply to backwards to pull through the massive foreign debt they have.

        I expect it to but honestly with everything happening thus far I won’t underestimate the far right to cnatch victory from the jaws of defeat

          It’s just not gonna happen. Even the poster child of the emerging far-right in LatAm, Bukele, has it’s country in a hole in terms of foreign debt, all the media strategies in the world will not change reality.

            Even if they had monetary sovereignty it would be a difficult ask but they’re completely beholden to the dollar.

            This is just rearraranging the deck chairs at this point.

              At this point in time, the best chance at democracy I see is a giant meteorite hitting DC when all branches of government are in session and actually at work, and even then people will clamor for “strong” leadership.

              Apologies to any regular decent people in the area, I’ll say a better shot is if a bigger one hits the deep south where I reside, simultaneously.
