Argentinian President Javier Milei Creates Huge Stir At World Economic Forum In Davos
The newly elected president of Argentina is the first libertarian president in history, and he has all the world’s leftists in a tizzy. Socialism and inflation have destroyed Argentina’s economy. Milei has vowed to bring true capitalism and free markets to his country to help their ailing economy. This week, he spoke before the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. A group with many full-blown socialists. And he did not hold back.
Milei told the conference crowd to reject socialism and embrace free markets. “Today, I’m here to tell you that the Western world is in danger,” Milei said in Switzerland in Spanish, translated to English. “And it is in danger because those who are supposed to have to defended the values of the West are co-opted by a vision of the world that inexorably leads to socialism, and thereby to poverty,” he said. “Socialism is a phenomenon that creates poverty… free enterprise capitalism is the only tool we have to end hunger and poverty,” he added.
Fox News reported, “The Davos meeting is Milei’s first overseas trip since taking office and it marks a test for right-wing Milei, a relative political newcomer who took office after a rapid ascent from acid-tongued economist and TV pundit to the presidency. Often compared to former President Trump, he is keen to win backing for his economic ideas, which include shutting the central bank and adopting the dollar.”
“At home, Milei is also pushing for major economic reforms, including spending cuts and deregulation, in a bid to improve the government’s finances and boost the economy. But he faces poverty levels which are climbing above 40%, inflation at more than 211% and the threat of social unrest. Milei carried a chainsaw during the campaign trail to symbolize how he was going to cut the size of the government.”
The World Economic Forum is an event where leaders from around the world meet to discuss how much they love socialism, despite it failing everywhere it is tried. Javier Milei is the world’s first libertarian president who told this group that they are all wrong, that socialism sucks and free market capitalism is the anecdote to poverty and misery. Hell. Yes.
