Newly elected President Argentine President Javier Milei is working to restore his country. In a courageous speech at the World Economic Forum,  he opined the grave dangers to the West from collectivist doctrines sneaking in under the guise of “fairness” and “equity”. Such doctrines are neither fair nor equitable.  Empirically, what succeeds is capitalism, embracing private property, and preserving liberty. But instead, as he remarks,, we are “opening the doors to socialism” and hence potentially condemning our people to “poverty, misery, and stagnation.”

Argentine is a once-beautiful and prosperous land that, like Venezuela,  has been subjected to the ravages of crime, inflation, corruption, and injustice that inevitably comes with far left policies that ignore human nature.  In his magnificent speech, the newly elected President made this insightful observation:

“[I]t must never be forgotten that socialism is always and everywhere an impoverishing phenomenon that failed in all the countries where it was tried,” Milei said. “It was an economic failure. It was a social failure. It was a cultural failure. It also took the lives of 150 million human beings.”

Truth.  Can you handle the truth?
