It is as if we have resigned ourselves to our hostile government continuing to grow at our expense until our last freedoms have been smothered, the economy collapses under massive wasteful spending, our savings are erased by inflation, and we have been reduced to literal slaves of the insects scuttling around in the District of Corruption. But there are other options. Javier Milei shows the way:

Argentine President Javier Milei announced on Monday evening that, for the first time since 2008, Argentina registered a 0.2 percent surplus of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) during the first quarter of the year.

The president declared the achievement a “feat of historic proportions at a world level.”

That is no overstatement. Argentina succumbed to socialism generations ago under Juan Perón. The formerly wealthy country has been a basket case for decades. But where there is resistance to leftism, there is hope. Milei proves it.

If Argentina can be saved from moonbattery, so can other countries — including the USA, the founding principles of which have been an inspiration to Milei and his supporters.
