    Argentina’s annual inflation rate sped past 211% in December

    He only assumed office in December. I think he is a whacko but expecting him to have a major change in inflation immediately is a bit ridiculous, don’t you think?

        He actually said that was going to happen. Argentina has been. Subsiding fuel and food and removing the subsidies would lead to short term inflation since the price of both is no longer artificially low.

      No more ridiculous than banning gatherings of more than 3 people or arresting people and making them pay for your jackboot gestapo
