“Argentina’s self-described ‘anarcho-capitalist’ President, Javier Milei, has — to put it mildly — generated considerable enthusiasm on the libertarian right in the United States. … an executive with emergency powers ruling by decree. And draconian prison sentences for protestors who block streets. Sounds libertarian to me! … Another economic provision in the decree is a restriction on the right to strike in the case of ‘important services’ …. The former category includes ‘hospital suppliers; maritime, air, river, land, and underground transportation companies, continuous industrial activities (including steel and aluminum, chemical, and cement industries); the food industry; construction material providers; banking, hotel, and restaurant services.’ The latter includes ‘public utilities, telecommunications, fuel transportation, and public primary schools.’ It’s hard to think of anything that’s not covered.” (07/15/25)
