No, the previous administration didn't get rid of the income tax (what we call "impuesto a las ganancias"), they modified the minimum salary required to pay it , you have to be earning 2.3 million ARS (or 180 montly minimum wages yearly, ~2000 USD per month as of today) to start paying income tax, where you would pay 27% of your income in the first bracket. The omnibus bill would lower this minimum to 1.8 million, but you'd pay 5% in the first bracket instead.
Thanks for the extra context hermano
Thanks
I mean, in effect that’s getting rid of income tax.
@@jabrokneetoeknee6448 ...dude 1.8 million aren't ''Argentina's poorest'', it's not even close. The average monthly salary in Argentina is 425 USD. This is basically just lowering the tax from the top 4% to the top 5% at most.
@@giantWario Alright, thanks for the correction
I feel like this is the third "will Milei fix Argentina" title I've seen in the past month or so
I agree I am from Brazil seing this unfold with curiosity and it's a headline in several videos and news articles
The left want him to fail so they could claim that socialism was the only way

i wouldn't put it past him to become the president of a country for a skit
I always thought he looked like robin williams.
@@MrBurnsExcellent dude I totally see it now
Javier Milei is a cocaine addict.
Income tax was NOT removed by the former goverment. They increased the threshold to pay it. However they then added or increased other taxes, so it was all a BS play for power anyways.
The video is misleading in many points; tax income is relatively low compared with many other countries, but we pay many other taxes that are absolutely unthinkable in most of the world, like 3 different taxes on capital and property, taxing repeatedly the same thing (which is ilegal in most of the world, even here but who cares about the constitution), and many provinces and municipalities tax things that are practically internal customs, wich again is ILLEGAL under the constitution.
You can add that taxes to wage (ie. gross wage to net wage ratio) is one of the highest in latin america and almost the double that countries such as the US, Italy or France, and 3 times that of Spain.
Argentina would've been better off with a simple progressive income tax, than this bureaucratic hell that probably eats half the tax revenue.
@@winzyl9546 Or maybe even a land value tax!
i think the problem with milei is that he comes with baggage. Economic reform can be all well but him being right wing on social issues and just generally an asshole isnt attractive to alot of people.
The vile cuts imposed on a generation in laat few years are slowly but surely being rejected world wide..and the new world leaders are amongst them..the measures were harmful..uneccessary and have caused much depression and ptsd amongst many .esp teens and 20s..Suicides and truency have trippled in many countries..Who/ big Pharma policies are NEVER EVER in the people's interest .Mil is reading the future..amd aiming to restore...I wish him and Argentina the v best of luck !!❤❤❤❤❤
Komehnni controls who runs. He therefore controls who wins.

@@CaesarTjalbowell the way english speakers say his name, they do sound similar.
If they were going to force a hardliner victory, they just wouldn’t have let a reformist run. Why would you let a reformist run, and then go through all the effort of rigging an election when you could have just… not let him run? Iran’s probably trying to test out a more reformist path in a controlled environment, I.e better to let a mild reformer run and win, then force hardline politics. Remember, the Iranian leadership was active in 79’. “If it could happen to the Shah, it can happen to us”
Wait what, no income tax in Argentina? Google seems to say otherwise
We have income tax yes but it is low and very few people pay it.
that octapus looks shady
you into octussy?
Its collection was postponed by the previous government until after the elections as a way to get a few more votes. But it wasn't removed altogether
There's income tax and still many "registered" people pay it. But the thing is the scales are a mess, once you start paying it it's a huge amount of your wage. Previous government rised the floor in order for less people to pay it and get reserved only for high income earners. Milei's proposal will make a lot more people pay that tax (floor was supposed to be reduced to about 50% of the actual one) but make the scales less steep. Over all if the government pretend to get more money from that modification it is a rise in taxes.
@@zeq9021 It is not a huge amount of your wage. The scales only go up to 35%. Other countries go up to 50% or more, our neighbour Chile goes up to 40%.
Not to mention the amount of people who evade it right now.
People in the comments are raging like income tax isn’t a normal thing in every country around the world.
it is, and that's ok. The debate is on where the floor is. If your income tax is about 1.2 times the minimum wage, it's not that fair, is it ? It is supposed to apply on those who earn substantially more
@@toriannasigourney9737 sounds reasonable to me. Many countries tax everyone, even people on minimum wages. Income thresholds, if present, are generally below minimum.
Shouldn't be. It is essentially a tax on labour, that has zero impact on the higher income, but disproportionately impacts the lower class's spending power and living conditions.
@@penzorphallos3199 in terms of economic theory, labour is better to tax than capital because it’s less mobile. Which is why countries tax companies and capital gains at lower rates.
There’s also evidence to suggest a more flat tax structure encourages people to work harder and increase investment. Which is why countries still tax lower income people and don’t just tax the top 10% like Argentina does currently.
(Me, living in a country where minimum wage earners are income tax-exempt...)
Lots of half truths and poor research.
If all your videos are of this same quality, it's very worrying.
"income tax for higher earners" is a bit of a stretch.
The law imposes a tax on wage for workers making barely above a livable wage. While it has a lot of tax cuts for the ultra rich.
Before then barely anyone in the country paid tax, which doesn’t seem like a particularly healthy system.
As it should be. It is even better.

He's trying to back up the state treasury with incoming revenue. It's basic accounting that you want more credited to an account than debited. I think even for how wacky he is he realizes he needs to balance the state budget to be in any position to recover the economy.
Who would've thought that if the Congress and Senate (dominated by the Kirchnerist opposition) _force_ him to raise taxes against his will, _he has to raise taxes!?_ Wild.

More wealth extraction
When milei took power Argentina had %46 poor people today after 6 months Argentina has %55 OF poor, the Argentine peso is devalued by %110 and although inflation is GOING DOWN to one digit everything is even more expensive than before, public transport WENT UP %200, etAnyone can corroborate these data,
The most recent scandal of Javier Milei's government is that his government had more than 10,000 tons of food stored in warehouses while they closed the public kitchens for the poorest, until the media announced that there was food that the government is hiding and forced them to distribute it to those who are starving.
And in a talk that Javier Milei participated in, he said that those who did not have enough to eat would find some way to survive because they are not stupid enough to let themselves die .
CRY HARDER 🤣😆😅😂
I left Argentina almost 8 years ago, have never looked back xD
So you ran away instead of fighting towards improving your own country.
Very ungrateful and cowardly behavior.
You made the right choice.
@@AndreVictorGoncalvescope
@@AndreVictorGoncalves Ungrateful towards what? I mean, someone needs to first do you a favor in order for you to ve grateful.
Besides, some other country obviously offered better and now they have something to be grateful for.
Your socialist mindset of shaming the free people is the reason why EU countries have a brain drain in favor of US.
I think you should fact check your inflation numbers. Milei has gotten inflation down to 4.2% in May, definitely not "world highest inflation rate" as you would have us believe.
They use the annual inflation rate to show milei in bad light when he is in the office for 6 months only whereas in monthly rate inflation reduced from 25 to 4 percent
yearly inflation rate is still over 250 percent
@@Protont The yearly inflation rate is pointless if he hasn't been in power for a year
@@jonasastrom7422Thats not the issue, even if you extrapolate the current monthly inflation to the year, you get crazy values. Just because they meassure monthly inflation, which makes sense given the situation, it makes it look normal while in reality it's still crazy
@@Lukav1 Annual inflation would be 50,4% if the current inflation rate stayed flat, which it won't, it will fall yet again
The economy collapses even further.
Wasn't Nigel Farage on I'm a Celeb last year
"The first step towards the recovery of our greatness." Milei maybe didn't get the US Dollar to Argentina, but he sure as heck got it's ego.
I hope that Milei faces no obstacles in implementing his policies.
I want to see whether these policies will work when implemented sincerely.
To be clear, I don't actually _believe_ that these policies will work as intended, but I think there's enough of a chance that they will work that it's worth trying it, and that if you try it you should give these policies the best opportunity they can get. I expect mixed results which result in a net negative, but I am willing to be proven wrong. At least part of the rationale behind Milei's policy is logical, though I think it's overly-simplistic and will be easily corrupted (similar to Marx's original concept for communism, which was corrupted into Stalinism).
If these policies _do_ work, they should be adopted by other countries. If these policies don't work, at least we'll know that for sure.
Pal it's just shock therapy, He's selling his country to the US for a bargain so we can steal all their lithium. It's not gonna work in the sense of improving the lives of working class Argentines. At best they'll be the Saudi Arabia of lithium but new discoveries make that less likely as well. Another point I'd like to make is this narrative that this reform is "necessary" is patently false. The Chinese were offering credit and infrastructure building in exchange for mining rights. Credit at far more generous rates than the US. Javier CIA is just proof the Monroe Doctrine is alive and well.
@@jacobjones630because being indebted to the Chinese communist party is definitely smart for your nations national security
The funny to see the Argentinian roller-coaster economy is still going wild.
Isnt a U.S security deal with Ukraine basically NATO membership by the back door.
Depends. If USA binds itself to help Ukraine then technically USA has to act outside NAT0's rules and step in by themselves.
On the other hand, we all know US is NAT0's strongest muscle.
Reuters report that Argentina's monthly inflation rate in May was the lowest since 2022, official data showed on Thursday, cooling for the fifth straight month to 4.2% amid a tough austerity drive by libertarian President Javier Milei. He is clearly doing something right.
really ? how did austerity work out for the UK ? , they are in worse shape than I can ever remember right now , and Im 60
@@stevensmith797 “If you can’t take the heat, leave the kitchen” Is not an option in economics.
Literally look at every recession/depression up to and including 1920-21, they all did austerity, problem solved itself.
@@stevensmith797the UK was not having an issue with inflation when austerity was implemented. It failed because not investing in the future means the future won’t be well and the future came.
Argentina is having a problem of hyperinflation. Austerity starves growth and demand which should starve inflation. Living standards will drop from austerity, but it will also drop from hyperinflation. Solving hyperinflation will be hard, but if it can successfully be done then the country will be able to invest in its future. That’s the calculus for many voters including the left.
@@dex6316 like you just said , dont invest in the future , the future will come anyway , austerity means stopping that investment , and the people will pay now and in the future , just like the UK has
Why u use “hardline President” where just 'President' does the work.
Early
For all the Argentinians who thought things couldn't get worse - well, you're about to find out just how much worse they can get.
Oh really? Things got pretty really fucking bad for me when Tío Beto won the PASO in 2019. And then I've had to endure 4 years of the "government of scientists", where everyone and their grandmas stole whatever they could scratch off that corpse of an administration. Then the Massazo of a helicopter money scheme which shot up inflation to the moon. But Health was ministry, there was a women's ministry who did who knows what, little Brayan could snatch yer phone on the street and gift you a corchazo as a favour and walk scot free with more impunity than the Impudic Touchments mayor or the Cat-in-a-Yatch other guy.

0:45 Milei given himself "Emergency powers" doesn't sound very democratic and it's one of the main criticism he vented about the "communist" Mexico president when he made a similar move.
Until now and still today milei's party has around 20 percent of seats in the Congress and the loosing party still holds between 40 and 50 percent of seats and there are many deputies that just vote against anything. I think that isn't very democratic. If you like milei or not he is doing what he promised during campaign.
@@julianfeldmann1757 I'm just saying that's a slippery slope and just highlighting the hypocrisy in his discourse, rules for thee and not for me.
literally every single president since the return of democracy was given these emergency powers by congress, and congress is a less democratic institution than the presidency since whoever gets a majority is president, while someone who only got 36% of the votes gets to have 49% of senators and 40% of representatives
Practically all presidents in Argentina since like 2003 have had some emergency powers granted to them by congress to deal with some pressing issue, usually relating to the economy, so this isn't anything new. And by the way, the emergency powers will be granted to Milei for just one year and on very specific areas of government. The decrees he makes will also have to be ratified by Congress. This is just a way for the president to be able to make quick decissions on pressing matters that need to be solved right now without having the need to wait for each measure to be debated in Congress and approved, which would take years.
I can't believe Milei is destroying Argentina's prosperous and thriving economy like this! /s
nothing wrong with being wrong on something and then admitting that but what I despise is that people who supported him from the beginning, spread any kind of mislead minor stats they could on twitter to make him look like a genius(from Musk to others)and if Milei takes Argentina down with him most of these people will take no responsibility and just pretend like they didn't like him or care, these types of people are the worst

The continuation of the conflict in Ukraine could potentially lead to further devastation for its people. The situation appears dire, with concerns that Russia may persist until it achieves its objectives, as observed in the gradual annexation tactics used in Georgia. The political dynamics within the United States have also impacted Ukraine's war efforts. Given the linguistic commonalities, as many Ukrainians speak Russian, it may be time to consider the likely outcomes.
Your world salad relies on 3 worn out & debunked arguments
Russian speaking = want to be ruled by Moscow
Ukraine is not willing to endure hardships of war
They are helpless as Georgia
Sure, the continuation of the war is bad, but you don't seem to realize that the alternative scenario is capitulation to Russia - and Russia doesn't really seem to want peace. In that scenario Ukrainians will suffer even more, and most Ukrainians understand that.
And that argument of "language" is just dumb. The US speaks the same language as the UK - should the US be a part of the UK again just because of that?
@@diogorodrigues747 The United Kingdom and the United States are separated by an ocean, with the UK often perceived as the less dominant partner. Ukraine has an extensive border with Russia, which has been further extended since Belarus entered into a union with Russia. Should Lukashenko pass away, it is speculated that Belarus may be integrated into the Russian Federation, thus expanding the border with Ukraine. There have been instances of Ukrainians enlisting in the Russian Federation's military efforts against Ukraine.
This is the soft form of the truky bizarre thing I see Putin's partisans saying-- that somehow the Ukrainian government because they're getting their people killed instead of letting Russia win.
I'm not calling the OP a Putin supporter. I just think "people are dying; it's time to let the guy causing them to die have what he wants" is a baffling statement.
@@user-id2jy6iv8t OK, let's use the Canada/US scenario. They also speak the same language and even have more or less a similar accent on that same language, should they be the same country? Or Argentina and Uruguay, should they also be the same country because they speak the same language? That's not a valid argument.
And no, if Lukashenko passes away, the mostly likely scenario is that the country will go through some sort of "Belarusian Maidan" since most people there are very pro-West, not pro-Russia.
"There have been been instances of Ukrainians enlisting in the Russian Federation's military" - sure, how many? Not relevant at all. And I think most of them did it because they had no choice but to do it.
And once that passes, Milei will become a dictator. RIP Argentina
you clearly never saw how Argentinian Politics works, is a tradition that a new president make a decree or make a law that grants them special powers during a short period of time to start working on their government programs asap or to solve very specific problems (example the economy) and is approved by the Deputy chamber and the Senate most of the time, for example during Kristina Kishner and Alberto Fernandez presidencies the congress gave them many powers without a hassle, but since Milei wants to reduce the spending of the State and strip away power and funds from those politicians and labor groups who were using tax money for the extortion of workers and poor people to do their bidding in exchange of food, money, and other welfare benefits now is called a dictator.
socialism is indeed a brainrot condition.
Good luck Argentina you gonna to need it 🇮🇱❤️🇦🇷

...And who has a supervillain alter-ego
Far wiser than giving any power to the governments that predate him. He literally can't do it worse than it already was for Argentina unless he invades Brazil or sth.
