Two failures made Javier Milei indigestible, contrary to his thoughts: a blow. Before that stomach ailment, however, the week had started with a positive fact, the registration of a agreement with Hugo Moyano, who silently reduced his bellicosity—guaranteeing the calm of other union organizations—and aligned his union with official economic expectations without any overwhelming increase. Nobody wants war and the government achieved union peace.
Also the doormen’s union, so committed to the cultural battle for social demands, seems to fit into the same and acceptable equal level. It’s not going to be that someone unravels the relationship between employers and employees. There was a snubbed in the mess of the truckers, Pablo, the violence-addicted son of Hugo, who shouted threats of all colors. However, now it has subsidedas if the family liked to play good cop and bad cop. Both of them are not doing badly in that exercise.
The sacrifice of the silent majority
The granting of increases was carried out by a nice Secretary of Labor (Julio Cordero) who treats even someone he doesn’t know as a “friend”. With that personality he prospered in a multinational company. Nobody knows if the minister in charge of the area, Sandra Pettovelloeven found out about this negotiation completed and shared by Cordero with the Minister of Economy, Luis Caputoand the Chief of Staff, Nicolas Posse. A minor detail, of course.
Also The person in charge of Human Capital ignores what is happening in the field of Healthmaybe they have crammed too many responsibilities into issues that he does not understand nor intend to understand. And she does not lack cunning in getting through troubles: every time the angry foremen of the social plans stand in front of her ministry, she changes her whereabouts and takes refuge in an alternative office three blocks from hers, in the Ministry of Culture. It doesn’t leave Recoleta.
Like the failures are more noticed than successesin this same week the President got involved in the two failures anticipated in the column, with his own hesitation about the tariff increases – proclaimed by his minister Cúneo Libarona – in the automotive registries (more than a disastrous appendage of the political caste) and in the medical prepaid. He first enabled laissez faire for the increases and then forced the obligation to suspend them and demanded that businessmen lower prices in the name of the interest of the middle class. Unexpected excuse for a libertarian. Even for the exaggeration of certain increases, unreasonable, I would say the current doctrine of the Supreme Court of Justice.
Although the monetary preservation of the middle class was invoked, the truth is that the increases they dislocated the government in the polls, in those popular preferences that brought him to power and that he wants to preserve. Even sacrificing principles on the steps of the Casa Rosada.
Another element to consider has been the momentary recommendation to the businessmen to apply a gradualist or suspensive criterion of increases that would allow proclaiming next month the single-digit premium in the inflationary rise. Essential information for Minister Caputo, who today could already take credit due to the progressive decrease in the country’s risk, but requires a greater reduction in the event that the International Monetary Fund is not moved by Argentina’s fiscal reduction and avoids granting 15 billion fresh funds.
Between artificial intelligence and the forces of heaven
Perhaps these suspensions or price delays can be incorporated into the combo of keep a dollar as a stake or barely moved by a minimum monthly devaluation (2 to 4%), to moderate the inflationary rise. Despite, of course, the fact that inflation is only a monetary phenomenon, as explained by Milei, who finally He had to compromise with the history of his predecessors in office, intervening to ensure certain balances in daily life.
For this reason, prepaid became a stigma for the government, perhaps officially profitable in terms of advertising due to tariff excesses and even for constituting a cartelization demonstrated in that all companies have increased the same percentage for years, on the same day and at the same time. Of course, this cartelization was imposed by the same governments by unifying service prices: the State works miracles of that nature. As the struggle now became political, the head of the Chamber (Claudio Belocopittlocated as furthest away) they already stole him from the forum that brings together the cameras, he moved away: better not to take risks.
Milei suffers from this contradiction between price freedom and the fight against inflation —The State also becomes restrictive in other areas, such as electricity—which adds to the internal political conflicts due to personal ambitions in Congress or disagreements with the governors or opposition.
It’s not the only thing. Encountered by delays and shortagesas the regulations to a labor reform If this occurs, the meetings are delayed even with the Pro to agree on common points this week in the Bases project and one confesses Notorious shortage of published resolutions. At least if one compares them with previous administrations and recognizing the current government as a transformative revolution: It’s little you can boast of.
Maybe because there is a a certain ease in saying and little ability to do what is saidsince closures, layoffs, cuts can be announced and then it becomes impossible to carry them out for administrative reasons. It is difficult to eliminate the enemy, the State for Milei, especially if its secrets are not known.
