"Alex Krueger, who I frequently quote, who is himself from Argentina, said, Mille is neither good nor bad. He is different. And for Argentina, different means good. Welcome back to The Breakdown with me, NLW. It's a daily podcast on macro, bitcoin, and the big picture power shifts remaking our world. What's going on, guys? It is Tuesday, August 15th, and today we are talking about the Argentinian presidential candidate who is a pro bitcoin candidate.

If you have been on bitcoin twitter in the last day or so, you've probably seen someone talking about the pro bitcoin Argentinian presidential candidate that just won a primary election. As a representative tweet, Marty Bent said, Argentina electing an anarcho capitalist president and embracing bitcoin would be pretty epic, especially when the world sees how quickly they recover from a multi-decade bout of fiat-induced economic mismanagement. This is indeed a really interesting development. However, it can be very easy, all too easy, frankly, for bitcoiners or crypto advocates to get so excited about a politician from somewhere else sharing our views on those particular topics that we fail A, to see the politician for their full set of policies and beliefs, or B, fail to put it in the context of what's actually happening in the place that politician has emerged. I think both of those things are extremely important and so today what we're going to do is just a little bit a very, very superficial background on Argentina, its recent economic turmoil, and of course the candidate in question, Javier Millet. So first let's talk about what actually happened. On Monday night there was a shock election result when libertarian congressman Javier Millet secured a victory in the presidential primaries with 30.1% of the vote. Millet came in ahead of pro-business center-right candidate Patricia Bulrich, who garnered 28.3% of the votes, as well as the candidate from the incumbent center left government Sergio Masa, who got 27.2% of the vote. Masa is the current minister of economy and is a party member of the Renewal Front, a part of the ruling coalition of democratic socialist parties. To get a sense of why people around the world are talking about this, economics professor Lawrence White wrote, 30% in the first round for a candidate who wants to abolish the central bank and dollar rise. Remarkable and encouraging whatever disagreements I may have with Millet on other issues. So who is Javier Millet? Well, he's a relative newcomer to Argentine politics. He was a founding figure in the libertarian coalition, which was formed in 2018. The party's power base is centered on the capital of Buenos Aires, but they are far from a dominant political faction. The party had a glimmer of success during the 2021 elections, obtaining a parliamentary seat for Millet. Overall, the libertarian coalition holds only four seats in the 257 seat lower house and none in the senate. One of the things this could mean that if Millet is successful in the final round of presidential elections to be held in late October, he might need to form an alliance with the center-right opposition in order to pass legislation. Before turning his attention to politics, Millet had a two-decade long career as a professor of economics. He is firmly of the Austrian school, believing in hard money principles. He has been highly critical of the university of Buenos Aires, which he views as being responsible for the, quote, proliferation of Keynesian brutes. Outside of economics, he is extremely socially conservative. He's put forward opinions, for example, around the extreme restriction of abortion, unrestricted civilian access to firearms, and climate change denial. Now, one of the things that you'll note if you've spent any time with Western press characterizations of Millet is that he gets compared to other right-wing populists like Trump and Bolsonaro quite a bit. In fact, most of the American coverage of him includes some phrase like Trump-loving or Trump-admiring literally in the title of the article. What's important to note is that his political communication is significantly more focused on politics. Indeed, his election campaign has centered on the economics of Argentina. During rallies, he has called for a massive reduction of government spending, formal dollarization, and the abolition of the central bank. He's also come out as a fierce advocate for Bitcoin as an answer to the control imposed by central banks over the money supply. However, before we go deeper into the Bitcoin dimension of this story, let's talk a little bit about the larger context. The Wall Street Journal characterized Millet's victory as a middle-class revolt, and it's pretty hard to argue with that point. Millet outperformed both the center-right opposition candidate as well as the center-left candidate from the incumbent government. Indeed, his victory in this preliminary stage of the elections is being viewed as a rejection of career politicians and the ruling class in Argentina. Current ruling party is part of a coalition of Peronist democratic socialist parties which have carried forward the political ideals of post-World War II president Juan Perón. While obviously the political history of an entire country is way, way out of depth for this show, at a very high Wikipedia-style level, Peronist presidents have been successfully elected in 10 of the last 13 elections in which they have been allowed to run, and so in that way definitely represent the entrenched incumbents in Argentina. Their ideology features things like nationalization of industry, strong government-supported labor unionization, and a hefty dose of social welfare. However, this ideology has been increasingly on the outs over recent years. For example, between 2015 and 2019, Mauricio Macri from the opposing center-right party, the Republican proposal held the presidency. In 2021, the Peronist coalition lost their majority in the Senate for the first time in 40 years, leaving the party impotent to pass legislation in their own right. Now, Mille's surprise victory on Monday could represent the final collapse of power for both of the major political coalitions in Argentina. Pre-election polling had the Dark Horse candidate finishing in third place behind the more established party figures, but was obviously way off. Now, part of why there has been such a political shift is that Argentina is going on 25 years of economic dysfunction. Starting in 1998, a string of global economic shocks led to a three-year depression punctuated by a sovereign default in 2001. In that period between 1998 and 2002, the Argentine economy contracted by 28 percent. Because of that, the nation turned to the IMF for debt restructuring to deal with an exponentially growing pile of dollar-denominated debt. After 2023, growth did return. Both unemployment and the 2008 global recession with its growth intact, but the economy sputtered out again in 2013, and since then, Argentina has experienced five recessions in the past 10 years. Now, things arguably took a turn for the worst after the change of government to the longtime opposition in 2015. By the second half of that year, inflation hit 30 percent, and the Argentine peso was cut in half to an exchange rate of 30 pesos per U.S. dollar. The central bank responded by hiking interest rates to 45 percent and draining its foreign currency reserves to bolster the collapsing peso. Inflation never came back down significantly below 40 percent prior to the pandemic, and the peso continued to devalue year after year. In 2019, power transitioned back to the dominant center-left coalition, and capital controls were put in place. Citizens could no longer freely exchange their pesos for dollars. In this environment, the central bank sets an official fixed exchange rate, at which individuals are only allowed to exchange $200 per month without paying punitive taxes. In spite of that official rate, however, the nation functions as a semi-dollarized state with citizens exchanging currency at a free market rate known as the blue dollar. This exchange in physical dollar bills is illegal but generally not enforced, as anyone who has visited BA knows. Alongside the blue dollar rate, there are a range of other exchange rates designed to act as either a subsidy or a tax on certain import and export industries. Most notably is the agricultural or soy dollar rate, which was introduced last year. The soy dollar rate was intended to offer farmers a more favorable exchange rate after they began to stockpile their crops rather than participate in economically critical export markets, however still had the problem of not being the actual rate that dollars were fetching on the blue markets. Now fascinatingly, on Monday, as it became clear that Miele had outperformed his rivals at the polls, the government announced another adjustment to the official exchange rate. The peso was devalued by 18 percent to trade at 350 pesos per dollar. Blue dollar rates also shifted by more than 14 percent and now sit at 675 pesos per dollar. That is a new all-time low for the Argentinian currency. Alongside the devaluation, the central bank hiked its key interest rate by 21 percentage points to reach 118 percent. Inflation is now firmly above 100 percent per year, and there doesn't appear to be an easy way to stabilize the currency or the economy. Now the devaluation is being blamed on an economic meltdown in reaction to the election. Alejo Costa, the chief Argentinian strategist at BtG Pakchual and BA, said investors like Miele's economic message but fear the execution and institutional risk considering his lack of power in congress and aggressive style. Now one concern is that Miele or any other president will have their work cut out for them. Claudia Kalich, the head of emerging market debt at MNG Investments, said that whoever is in charge by the end of the year will need to begin unwinding unsustainable policies. And ultimately this is what makes Miele's success at the polls start to make more sense. The core pillars of Miele's proposed economic reforms are to formally dollarize the economy and slash government spending to the bone. Given that the people of Argentina have seen their peso savings slashed by two-thirds in just the past year, the message appears to be resonating. So at this point let's start to bring crypto back into this story. Argentina is a place that has embraced crypto for some time now. In fact, I've often told this story on other podcasts, but in early 2019 I actually brought my father-in-law to BA for a couple day trip where we effectively just hung out with people who were working in the crypto space and that's where it really clicked for him. It was soon after that trip that he made his first bitcoin investments, which by the way, if you look at what bitcoin was priced at at the time, was a pretty damn good time to get in. Now back to Argentina itself, local laws allow for up to 20% of wages in kind, which some workers have used to receive part of their salary in crypto. That has represented a significant boost for global workers who otherwise would have had US dollar payments automatically converted into pesos with the banking system. According to International Payroll Company Deal, Argentina has more workers getting paid in crypto than any other nation in the world. Now a big part of the adoption in Argentina is around stablecoins. This makes sense given how dollarized the economy is. Many blue dollar exchange offices now accept and distribute stablecoins and their use in the economy as a payment method is also increasing. Several major banks even began offering crypto services in recent years. Now perhaps because of all of this, the amplified adoption of crypto in Argentina has alarmed the IMF. Since 2020, the government has been seeking IMF assistance in restructuring its debt, but negotiations have been painfully difficult. The IMF has insisted on a range of economic reforms and austerity measures, but a lack of a parliamentary majority made it difficult for the government to make a firm commitment. In March 2022, the government signed a letter of intent with the IMF on a loan of $45 billion and one of the terms of the agreement was that central bank would discourage the adoption of crypto in Argentina in order to quell money laundering, informality, and disintermediation. This was, of course, the IMF's very own Operation Chokepoint Argentina and despite there being no formal policy, multiple major banks suddenly shut down their crypto services. Now $5.4 billion of the IMF loan was distributed to Argentina earlier this year, but with elections and potentially a change in government coming, it's not clear when the balance of the loan will be paid out. For many citizens, the current government has used the central bank to pursue a failed policy of currency controls and sky-high interest rates. And in spite of all of that, inflation is still above 100% and shows no signs of slowing down. Is it at all surprising then, that Argentinian citizens are attracted to a politician who pledges to burn down the central bank? Now, several months ago, when Mille was enjoying a groundswell of support, he made an appearance on national TV to put forward his economic positions. In that interview, he was asked specifically about his views on Bitcoin and what its adoption could mean for Argentina. Mille answered, and of course, all of these quotes are translated from Spanish. The first thing we have to understand is that the central bank is a scam. It is a mechanism by which politicians cheat the good people with the inflation tax. What Bitcoin is representing is the return of money to its original creator, the private sector. Money is a private invention. In order to be used to solve problems, for example, in a bartering economy, the double coincidence of wants and indivisibility. Then paper money appears in order to solve portability. And then that evolved and the currencies that people chose were silver for small transactions and gold for bigger ones. Then, because back then it was very dangerous to move the gold, people used to deposit the gold and get in exchange a receipt. Then in the year 1445, in the first Genovese Congress, the states appropriated the exclusivity to issue the money. That's the legal tender, which is a key point. Because legal tender allows the politician to scam you with the inflationary tax. Bitcoin has an algorithm that one day it will reach a certain amount and there is no more. It can compete with other currencies. In fact, it competes with Ethereum and others. And what is the good thing? It's the return of private money. But what is the problem? The problem is that governments will not give up the legal tender because with legal tender they can scam you with the inflationary tax. Bitcoin is the natural reaction against the central bank scammers and to make the money private again. The flip side is that the thieving politicians are not going to allow you to go against legal tender. In economies with high inflation, the scam problem is bigger. That's why, as I suggest, you can propose to close the central bank.

"Gina is not my daughter. Gina is my sister. For those who don't know, I have a severely autistic older sister and I am her conservator. So when my parents die, I basically inherit her as essentially my child. And I want to protect Gina. I love her. She adds a lot to my life. I adore her beyond words and I will always look out for her, but I can't lie that one of the reasons why I will look out for her is that she's my sister. I wouldn't take it as a responsibility of mine to look out for another autistic girl if she weren't my sister. Correct. So the only question is if she were your sister because your parents adopted her. Oh, I would do that too. Yes. I know. Oh, I would. That's all my point. Part of my blood schmudd argument is I've asked people, so you're going to be stuck on an island for six months. Do you want to be with a friend or a relative? Well, that's totally true. So that's big. Can I give you another example of the importance of blood? We would die for our family, but we live for our friends. That's a good one. It's a pre-eurism. That belongs on a t-shirt. Exactly. My mom has a napkin that says friends are God's way of apologizing for family or something like that. That is hilarious. Another example of the importance of blood. Judaism. Yeah. What about it? You need to promulg- there are so few Jews and the bloodline really matters. But Judaism also did the opposite. You could not convert to be an Egyptian. You could only convert to being a Jew in the ancient world. Then, of course, Christianity. But Christians were not a nation. Jews were a nation. You could convert to being a Jew. Non-blood. The Messiah will come in both the second coming or the first, indeed. But for Jews, the Messiah will come from a convert. How's that? My middle name. There are no words. I found you talking to Invisible Dennis Moore movie. I can't believe that. That's a very big deal that the Messiah will come. The Jewish belief that is the Messiah will come from the descendant of a convert. In my blood-shmud presentation, that is one of the proof texts, as it were, that I use. And the simple one. If you were stuck on an island, very few people would choose a relative. Yes, it is true. Because everyone has a role. Relatives have a role, and friends have a role. But remember, you choose friends, you don't choose relatives. So it makes perfect sense. It's not an insult to your relatives. Here's the thing, though. Society – and I totally agree with you. I would probably choose a friend over a relative if I were on a desert island. I think that non-blood ties are hugely important and essential, a la adoption. However, I don't think society would function if we didn't think that we had a certain allegiance above others to our bloodline. Imagine if parents thought, oh, well, it doesn't matter that they're my biological kids. I like that kid better. I'm going to invest more in that kid than my own. For those for whom that is a need. And I'm not saying that patronizingly. It's a good point to end. That's good. But we'll do a Bludgemont thing. It's an extremely interesting – and I'm very obviously – I'm so pro-adoption. Which so many people would not expect of you. I feel like you need to publicize that more. There are so many parts of your life that people would not – they would think that, as I say, you are this nuclear family absolutist because you're this conservative. My wife and I are godparents to a gay couple. That's another one. How many people know that? And the amazing thing is, even if they know it, though, it doesn't matter. See, the left judges thought more than behavior. That I treat gays as no differently than anyone else. That is so right. Is not important because I think marriage is between a man and a woman. Yep. Well, another final example I'll give is I was watching one of – as I say, I watch you a lot. I was watching one of your YouTube videos about men and women. And I guess maybe you were saying something that pissed off some feminists. And someone wrote, Prager must be married to a Stepford wife, docile. And I looked at that comment and I went, oh, my gosh. They have no idea how wrong they are. Stuff written about me out there is so conjecture. Let me tell you, I have the honor of knowing Sue Prager. Sue Prager is not a Stepford wife docile person. She is – she'll tell you how she feels. There are very few males that are as strong as she. Oh, yeah. There's no question. Oh, oh, totally. Absolutely. That's correct. But she's quite feminine. That's right. She's perfect. Before we go, what was Mr. Snuffleupagus's first name? What was Mr. Snuffleupagus's first name? Sean asks. You're looking at the wrong girl. The important things that come through these earphones. He didn't have a first name. Oh, he did. He did? Dennis. Sean. Zach. Rick. Yerachmiel. Alejo. Tony. Beryl. Excuse me? Aloysius? What's his first name? Aloysius Snuffleupagus. I love it. He's entering Prager territory. I love names. Maybe I need to watch Sesame Street. I don't understand. That is truly – Three quarters of your references. Somebody would ask me, what is the most surprising thing about you that no one knows? I now have an answer. I know everything about Sesame Street. And you watched it when you were in graduate school. Every day before leaving. As you were writing your Why the Jews book. No, but I do that. I was reading The Other Night in Modern Times by Paul Johnson, which is a really heavy book. And then I was like, you know, I'm done. And then I turned on The Kardashians. I'm the same way. No, you have to. Of course that. I go from extremely highbrow to extremely lowbrow. So that's worthy of its own discussion. Wait, The Kardashians is not Real Housewives. That's totally separate. I've never seen The Kardashians. I have seen Real Housewives, which the only reason that I'm surprised you love it, although I may have an explanation and then we'll end, is I totally get, you know, tune out not intellectually elevated stuff. I totally get it. But I tuned in. So, for example, if you watched, what is it, when they're abandoned on an island, Survivor. If you watch Survivor, make perfect sense to me. But when I watched Real Housewives, I think once in my hotel room, and I thought, I can't prefer to stare at the ceiling. I think the conversation was so vapid. So I have an explanation. How does one of the deepest human beings I know, Julie Hartman, enjoy the vapidness of Real Housewives? So I have an answer. Women, the female part of you, their discussions in some way fascinate you. That's the answer. That is the answer. There's a huge female component. I can't imagine men watching Real Housewives. What's a male TV show, like a trashy male thing that people would watch? I'm not sure. I'm sure there is one. That's an interesting question. Most people who watch Real Housewives are women. Sean watches trash. Sean watched pro wrestling. Yeah, I can't relate. I can't relate to wanting to watch pro wrestling. That's the best. It's so gory. It's vile. I love watching sports, but oh. Pro wrestling is theater. And that's all you need to know. I don't think there's anything real, except they are in good shape because they get bounced on the ground a lot. Oh, that's for sure. By the way. Okay, sorry. I know we keep having to end. Cauliflower ear. Do you know what that is? Yes. It's if you get punched in the ear a lot. Your boxers get that. I never knew that was a thing. I saw some guy with it the other day. He said he was a boxer. He didn't want to be rude, but he had it. And so I went home and googled boxer ear. Well, Zach on our staff of 14 people will make this possible. He boxes. I don't know if there's 14, but we can go with that. He does what? Kickboxing. Yes, exactly. How can people reach me? By going on Hinge. Oh, no, that's the surest way not to reach me. That was a good one. I answered your question and you don't like the answer. Yeah, go to Hinge Los Angeles and you'll see me. Anyway, Julie at Julie-Hartman.com. You can follow me on Instagram and Twitter at JulieRHartman.com. And you can follow Dennis now on Instagram. Right, Dennis? We can follow you on Instagram.

Mark is a good middle name. Isn't it, Mark? Yes, but why is it good? It's not, it's not Gordon. I never use it. I never ever use it. It's not on any of my credit cards. It's not on my license. Okay, only on your Wikipedia. No, yeah, Wikipedia did it. That's how I know it. No, Denmark, you're Denmark. That's what's cool about it. Yes, my grandmother called me Denmark. Denmark. Yes, that's why we thought of Denmark. Why is D.M. Prager impressive? You can DM Prager. DM Forster? DM is direct message. Oh yeah, you can DM Prager. You can DM Prager at The Dennis Prager on Instagram. So here's this, my initials are DP. Department of Police, Department of Parks, Double Play, Displaced Person. I'm happy for you.

The issue is spike protein, the toxic substance that attaches to your cells to allow MRNA to enter. Many of us have collected excess spike protein over the past few years, putting constant stress on our immune system and causing compounding symptoms. Fortunately, over-the-counter solutions are here. People I trust, Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Harvey Risch at The Wellness Company, formulated a spike support formula combining scientifically researched ingredients. One of them being nato kinase, an enzyme researched to dissolve spike protein.

"Hasn't got as much attention to that should just what they've been able to do in terms of top down. I mean, Vladimir Gutierrez and some of the even those Younger named Tony Santana. Just having success at the big League levels of rookies and you know, if you if you can develop pitching, you're going to have success at the Big League Noble for a long time. The roster news today. TJ Antone activated Sean Doolittle is did fade your reaction to Sean being the odd man out. Yeah, I mean, it's tough for him just because it seemed like he was showing signs that he's pitching better. His velocity was up to 97 recently. But it's one of the things that the problem with the nine man bullpen is. There's going to be guys left out. You know, he's just really didn't have a consistent role only pitch four times this month. I'm here, Garrett. I mean, he's kind of the When he's going well. He's as good as the left as you can have an hand pitched in 11 days, so I think it's one of those things where the nine man bullpen was starting to catch up with them, Um and you just had to make a move and it speaks to Tony said Tian. If they could have optioned him to the minor leagues, kept too little and then brought back Santy in in September, with the rosters spent, 20 declared the 28. But it said they showed how important this week is keeping their town and Bloody Nipsey in the bunker. Bobby with options like Max Rock, Alejo Lopez and R. N. C. R to Triple A. Are you surprised? They're sticking with the nine man bullpen and going a man short on the bench? Little bit. I mean, I think it's just part of where their roster is. I mean, if you get rid of any reliever they have right now, except for T. J and so then of those guys have options, so you're going to have to designated for assignment. That people will make the point like those guys to a lot of those guys have struggled at times this year. What's the big deal? But those guys are going to get claimed teeth every did not last very far on a waiver wire. Chuck Dolittle get picked up pretty quick. I would be surprised if Michael Police got picked up pretty quick. When he got designated the first time, and I mean, there seems like the Dodgers were disclaiming everyone they can because you need pitching depth, especially for September. You know if injuries start to happen, say two or three guys get hurt in your bullpen. Don't have traits that you can get these guys back. So that's kind of the fear is trying to get rid of these guys that I think that spent the core reason why they accepted that man bullpen. Um and but I think in a perfect world, they go back down to eight and Have the extra guy off the bench. Last question. Been great with your time Does that does this third base thing of Suarez Moose continue or does does the left side of some combination of Barreiro and farmer enter the equation at some point I think they're still going to bride Moustakas and four to see how long they get. I mean, I know you'll get to a certain point where it's like you have to wait gave these guys have to produce. You relegate either of those guys the bench full time. You know you're losing a Are basically the rest of the season. I mean, that's hard to come back from to establish guys. Two guys who have done it their whole career that a lot of power on your bench, obviously, but, uh, you know, Jose Barreiro. He's a fantastic defense, the short stuff they need to give him. I think more opportunities, try to get him in the lineup more, but it's one of those things that they get. The stock at your store is going offensively.

It looks like no moment is too big for them and and they're part of nearly a dozen rookies Vladimir Gutierrez, Tony Santiago Alejo Lopez that have been brought up and thrust into significant moments for this team. And they've delivered it it's not a one-off you know, what time? Game. We're talking about months of composed. Success, India's home run against Marc, Melanson was one of the, that would have been arguably the best moment of the first half of season have they not, you know, given up the four runs in the bottom of the ninth inning, but that's, you know, water under the bridge as they say John and still that, that game when she saw that performance from Jonathan India, that kind of speaks of what you're talking about, right? Yeah. Yeah, that's, that's who he is. You know, when he got him a couple of more times later in the series, too, we worked a walk. He had another base, hit both in life sentence. For the Reds were trying to Rally against, you know, that same baseball leader and saves, you know? And the only times he's lost when he's blown saves this year has been against the Reds and half of his blown saves home against the Reds. So there is that that pluckiness to this team and I think David Bell has been an under-the-radar managerial success to he, you know, by his General name. Risk kind of quiet. Understated has a measured Longview kind of picture. He was a sailed for the bullpens failings and the early stage of the year, I would contend that. Among most of those decisions.

Now David Bell deserves credit exactly for that point on, because, you know, given the fact that you're without your best back end by leverage pictures, he has had a mix and match the last four or five games and they've won all and you know he has an Overexposed anybody. I think there was a a thought, you know, maybe several weeks back three or four weeks back that you know he was over exposing that Bullpen which happened to be a weakness of birth Seen and I think he is stepped on the pedal a little bit more with the starters and they responded and it's shortened, the exposure of the bullpen and it's made them more effective.

"Traditional American song in a new arrangement. By the Pulitzer Prize winner Caroline Shaw and played by Yo Yo Ma on cello and Katherine Stott on piano. That's from their collaborative record called Songs of Comfort and Hope, which Human Katherine Stott released at the end of 2020. A year, when when we were all looking for those things, comfort and hope. I mean, even more than usual. Up next on new sounds another duo from Caroline Shaw, but this one is a much more uncommon pairing. The river town duo is Claire Happel Ash on harp. And Philip Alejo playing the bass and the peace, Caroline wrote for them is called for Claire and Philip. Now that combo harp on base. It is uncommon, but it's not unique because during quarantine in 2020, harpist Brandee younger and bassist Desert Douglas were stuck in their Harlem apartment, and they decided to make use of their time by doing a weekly serious of live streams from home. Later in the year. They released this album called Force Mature with some of the covers and some of the originals from those weekly streams and we're going to hear two of them now, their version of the Kate Bush song this woman's work. And a very short version of Pharaoh Sanders Album Length Jazz Classic. The Creator has a master plan so to pieces by the harp and based duo of Brandee younger and Desert Douglas. After this piece by Caroline Shaw for the River Town duo again Base and harp. Mm. Okay? Yeah. Right? All right, Major. That is music from bassist Desmond.
