Capital Accumulation and Property Rights: Economic growth hinges on the accumulation of both physical and human capital, which is only feasible when property rights are respected.
-
Savings as Investment Fuel: Savings, whether domestic or foreign, are essential to finance investments that drive economic expansion.
-
Macroeconomic Stability and Fiscal Balance: Eliminating the fiscal deficit halts monetary emission, paving the way for a future free from inflation.
-
Reducing Public Spending Without Raising Taxes: A significant fiscal adjustment was achieved by cutting public expenditure, avoiding tax hikes, and even implementing tax reductions.
-
Declining Inflation and Rising Economic Activity: A notable slowdown in price increases has been observed, accompanied by signs of economic recovery.
-
Destruction of the Inflationary Process: By halting monetary emission and achieving fiscal balance, the inflationary process has been dismantled.
-
Elimination of Distortions: Removing price controls and subsidies has corrected market distortions, leading to more accurate pricing and resource allocation.
-
Labor Market Reform: Modernizing labor laws aims to reduce unemployment and encourage formal employment.
-
Opening to International Trade: Reducing trade barriers and promoting exports are strategies to integrate Argentina into the global economy.
-
Institutional Quality and Rule of Law: Strengthening institutions and ensuring the rule of law are fundamental to attracting investment and fostering economic growth.
President Milei’s plan underscores a commitment to liberal economic principles, aiming to position Argentina as a competitive player on the global stage.
