Argentina's dollarization - will it work?

A few countries tried it and failed miserably.
Will the country be worse off or do very well?
I bet The regular guy will not benefit.

That new guy ni mdomo tu! He will be in for a big surprise. Making noise is easier than running government and a country's economy.

The dollarization will not work. It has never worked outside the US and will not work in Argentina.

That for sure. Let us hope he will sober up a bit. Otherwise he will not even survive two years.

Just met an Argentinian driving Uber , he gave a detail situation of the current crisis . I also asked him about Dollarization and he told me the country has major Dollar reserves and they can tap on the bond market. But he still opined it wont solve the situation until the government changes its socialist policies and over taxation .

Reality is setting in very quickly. The man should watch his back since his fans might eject him from the top faster than he thinks.

The economic crisis will have political leaders chose whether and how to serve the people who vote them in.

How can the billions of world population be working for the shadowy financial systems. The human cost is just genocidal.
