Of course Milei was greeted in a Friendly manner by Meloni. Both are puppets of the American powers and Milei is now a valuable puppet. With all the oil revenues that are going to end in the pockets of the Wall Street executives there is a lot to be happy.

Yes, but the next government will put it on a bigger scale. Maybe it will not cost as much as the banks bailouts, but it will absorb a lot of money and the burden will fall as usual on the middle classes which make the majority of the population. Part of the burden may be deferred by piling up on the government debt, but eventually it will have to be paid by the usual ones.

This is just an observation of what’s happening. As it says the Thatcher cycle is completed, the new cycle is beginning.

BTW It is interesting to note how the linked article accurately avoids to talk about the real issues and what is really triggering the protest.

The classic corporate driven edulcoration.

In Argentina there is the opposite cycle compared to the UK. Now It is time to privatise the profits.

The real crucial point are the oil revenues. For decades the government paid for the painful work to create the infrastructure to exploit the oil reserves in the basin of the Vaca Muerta in Patagonia. Now the oil fields are going to produce and produce profits. That is when Milei enters the scenes and decideds to sell everything to the privates. This is the moment when the fight is at its peak because the sale date is approaching.

Look at how the politician rise through the rank today. They depend on a captive media system and on social networks controlled by big business. The only politicians you can get are those who serve the purpose of those in power. Someone who wants to aim higher will never be able to run for election. It’s just a dream.

It seems you don’t get it. The purpose of the nationalisation is not to restore the services, but to take over the debts. After few decades they will be privatised again. This is just another cycle.

overpopulation is not measured by how many people you can pack into a telephone booth. Overpopulation in measured by how many people the Earth resources can support.

We began to consume more resources than what the Earth can provide decades ago, when the population was less than six billion people. Not just fossil fuels, we are consuming fresh water, arable land and forests in a non sustainable manner. The wild fish population in the sea reached an all time low and we are still overfishing. Fish farming accounts just for a small fraction of our consumption.

The alarms by the World watch and other institutes began in the '70s. Nonetheless the world population kept increasing and it is still increasing.
