Don't believe for once second that the CIA is not a vicious monster. Hopefully
under Trump that will change but they are experts at psychological warfare
and had they reason Brazil would presently be in a civil war.

 
We had a  "civil war". We suffered a coup, and it was CIA-run.
The elected President was deposed, and the favorite candidate for her
succession was jailed. A highly unpopular politician (less than 3% of
approval) became president. He was succeeded by a nutjob (not unlike
Argentina's Milei) who attempted to establish a military dictatorship.
This all happened in 2017-2018.
Democracy was only restored in 2022
Who was the president in 2017-2018 and who fixed it in 2022?

But Mr Millei, while sorta offbeat in his personal life and
habits, is hardly a "nutjob".  Inflation has been wrangled
down to 2.4% in a growing economy and the Argentine MERVAL
bourse is the world's best performing exchange for 2024.

I don't believe more than 1% of Argentineans even know what
the MERVAL is. It's something foreign "actors" bet on. Same with
Brazil's stock exchange. I've never risked anything on it. Too much
corruption and insider trading.
Absolute poverty for over 50% of the population, largest
unemployment in over 20 years, the GNP plunged 3.4% this year(the
worst in South America). Over 10.000 small and medium businesses
closed. Foreign and local debt rose, Milei just got a new loan from
the IMF.
Massive increases in taxes for the working class. Only the
military, judiciary and politicians were unscathed by the cuts.

The joke is that Milei promises to replace the people's
savings and salaries and pensions with bitcoins. After it reaches the
maximum, of course. When that tumbles, they'll lose everything. Don't
know it that's true, but Musk bought heavily before Bitcoin started
rising, and he's one of Milei's unofficial "advisors". It'll be a
transfer of all the people's savings to Musk's pockets.**

Crazy teaching Crazy.
What could go wrong?

** same think is happening in the US. People are going to lose a lot
of money with bitcoin.
