@lethn @ChristiJunior @TheMadPirate Seems to be a recent poll. 👇

Cubans are a famous exception, but I'm told second generation Cubans go leftist anyway.
Milei: I want to audit public universities to see what they're doing with the taxpayer money they receive. :milei_smug:

University of Buenos Aires: Sure, whatevs, dawg. Audit away. IDGAF. 🗿🚬

Milei: OK, I'm gonna start with you. :milei_wtf:

UBA: OH YEAH? WELL I HAVE THIS INJUNCTION THAT SAYS YOU CANT! :pinkwojak:

That's how it's going currently. :doge_laugh:
They are hiding something. Probably rampant corruption; but there's rampant corruption everywhere else already, so I suspect the UBA is guilty of something greater.

We shall find out. :pepe_sherlock:
Some public administration jobs could be passed on to your relatives without them earning them. Hereditary jobs in government. Milei just ended that. :milei_disgusted:

As for OP's comment, after the government eliminated AFIP (our equivalent of the yank IRS), one of its former employees jumped out a window to his death.

One libertarian troll quickly found and published the suicide letter, proving it had nothing to do with Milei, but personal issues in the man's life.

Others point out how evil AFIP is and how we should have zero empathy for them killing themselves, especially now that they've gone from feeling superior to everyone to trying to milk some sympathy for being thrown on the street after decades of living on lavish salaries.

A remaining chunk ask when are the other AFIP employees gonna jump. :pepe_troll:

You see, people aren't feeling extremely tolerant with government parasites as of late. :pepe_fact:

For people living in real countries like the USA and Europe: the recently disbanded AFIP (IRS) had employees whose job was to go into supermarkets and check that the prices didn't go over what the government had decided. That is, full blown socialism. :comm:

The "shelves law" I believe it was. Milei struck it down with an executive order on his first week as president, if I'm not mistaken.

So, the process was that the government would print unlimited money, that would drive inflation up, but supermarkets had to keep particular products within a certain price range as to not abuse the public with impossible prices, or so went the narrative.

In practise, this would cause supermarkets to raise prices of other goods or, more often, stop providing less sold products and focusing solely on the very basics as to lose as little money as possible. Many closed down. Even Walmart left Argentina as a result of these practises. A total disaster.

Those AFIP employees are now jumping out of windows, chimping out in marches and making death threats at the president from their echo chamber WhatsApp groups. And they expect empathy now that they've been left on the street. :peperly:
