Hundreds of thousands of Argentine students protested in the streets on Wednesday against sharp spending cuts at public universities by President Javier Milei's libertarian government.
The protests were organized after the administration threatened to veto a law Congress passed weeks ago to guarantee university funding, as Argentina faces an economic crisis with annual inflation close to 240% and over half of its population in poverty.
"The government has a systematic, methodical and gradual plan to destroy public education," Ricardo Gelpi, head of the University of Buenos Aires, said in a statement.
Milei's government has repeatedly justified cuts, deriding public universities as sites of "socialist" indoctrination, but the institutions have a strong reputation among Argentines.

The honeymoon is over for Milei that is for sure. Argentina holds elections this month next year, will be interesting to watch over that time how things go.

In 1995 Democrats protested Newt Gingrich's budget cuts, and now Democrats call the fantastic result "the Clinton economy."

LOL!!!

Students are always protesting, since their minds are mush and easily manipulated by leftism.

At the rate he is going, he will be a one term leader.

I can see why, he is just like a Repub in the US, gut education and build up the military.

Perhaps. People are scared of freedom.

Yeah, the globalists hate it when you stand up to them.

We have been predicting that the leftists would do this since his victory.

Socialists absolutely HATE having to actually work for a living.

Only if you leftists kill him.

But but but without central control of education how can leftists indoctrinate the children?

That's not fair!

Kids these days.

People like to be able to eat and feed their children.

It is an odd thing I suppose

I love how a little libertarianism pisses off "libertarians"

This is why libertarianism can never succeeded. One cannot just do a 100% u-turn, going from all to nothing.

If social security were taken away today, would you blame those that were relying on it to survive for being upset?

As for Argentina, there is nothing libertarian about pumping up military.

Hypotheticals that can never happen, for $500 Alex.

Isn't funny how this so called libertarian twists himself into a pretzel to support every Marxist talking point...
