I don’t know if you can call money from a future investment a gift, but in the era of the puppet Biden, much more than that was given away and wasted, and I never heard anyone protest.

They, in Argentina, have a problem with government giving too much to the people, generating monstrous inflations, which then impoverish the country.
All that giving freebies made Argentina from tenth riches country in the World into poor third world country.
Dollarizing would force Government into some fiscal discipline.
Unfortunately US gov cannot discipline itself either, so this may lead to importing US inflation!

"Investing and giving are two different things."

It's Javier Milei, whose party just swept the Congressional elections, so hopefully it's a good thing.

Now if someone like the Perons were running Argentina....

"About as likely as Ukraine paying back its loans."

Zelensky said they were not loans.

Whatever it’s called - loan, currency swap, investment - we shouldn’t be giving $20 billion in aid to a foreign country.
