What's up Noel. Currently in Argentina right now. I'm working on a job site, and yesterday... every single one of the engineers here supported Milieu. They are just fed up with the system.

I've been reading about dollarization lately, and I see a lot of pro and anti-articles. The one thing I don't see among the anti-dollarization articles is a realistic path forward. What policies could they take that could tame inflation?

My take is no matter what happens, status quo, dollarization, fiscal constraint, there is going to be mass social upheaval.

The engineers I work with advocate for dollarization because they assume that like in the 90s even if Argentina did get things under control, they would just backslide again. There is literally no faith in the government or institutions to behave responsibly. Their support for dollarization is basically their way of advocating breaking the system completely to restart a new.
