Periodic Reminder
By Mitch Berg
It’s time for your periodic reminder: free markets solve pretty much everything:
Even the picayune exception you’re about to throw into the conversation?
Yes. If the market is free enough, and you give it enough time and the fundamentals of the economy are strong enough (we’re talking Argentina, here – a nation that’s been enervated by almost 20 years of near collapse)?
Yes. That too.
Carry on.

It’s simple.
Milei has done exactly what our DOGE will supposedly be doing; getting rid of useless government employees. He called in “the Bobs” to ask their famous question, “just what is it that you do here?” and got rid of the useless ones.
Elon and Vivek are our “Bobs”.

But what about equality? Diversity? Inclusion? What about from everyone according to their ability to everyone according to their needs? Revolution in 3… 2… 1… Milei is a dead man walking.

It’s amazing what people can do with their resources when they’re assured the government won’t be stealing them for the crime of doing something productive.
