In libertarian circles, where the leader of the German liberals, Christian Lindner, regularly moves, it has become chic to refer to the ‘successes’ of the Argentine president elected a year ago, thus creating the impression that shock therapy could also be appropriate in this country. The Argentine president, Javier Milei, is being held up as a paragon of liberalism before anyone can even present well-founded empirical evidence that his radical approach is having positive effects. Even the no-less libertarian Elon Musk is repeatedly cited as Milei’s kindred spirit, presumably to show how much money can be made if you have the right attitude.
