All in all, I do not see anything good in store for our neighbors.

i see what you quoted but i cannot find the original source you quoted so i can't see my entire comment in context.

anyway, no matter, it still makes sense to me. because:

1) i stopped listening to the "reports" and actually listened to the guy. i have changed my mind about him,

2) even though i changed my mind about him, i can see how some of his proposals don't sit well with mainstream voters. and even though jxc did not win as i expected (probably condemned by macri's former failure) they still are in a coalition with him. which is bound to move him closer towards economic orthodoxy.

i am fairly hopeful about his gubmint. liberalizing that disgraceful ruin of an economy is important. they are going to need a shock treatment, which will be hard, but that is preferrable to a slow but certain death. it wasn't even so slow anymore... the decline has been too quick lately, as a matter of fact.

anyway, here's to the end of populism of all stripes in latin america...
