There is no truth in this article.
Dr. Milton Friedman's libertarian economic philosophy that insisted on
removing government oversight in favor of private sector, actually killed
the Argentinean economy. The Argentinean economists of the late 50's and
early 60's, all of them tutored by Friedman in Chicago created the mess.
Argentina was the largest experiment of the FREE Market theory. It just
didn't work. Many other south American countries refuse to practice it.

Argentina Impoverishes Itself Again: What happens when government meddles
with private wealth.
From the article: "Argentina is a constitutional republic with many
historical similarities to the U.S. It has a rich immigrant heritage and an
abundance of natural resources. But the U.S. is a rich, advanced country and
Argentina is poor.
How did the breadbasket of South America fall so far behind? One explanation
goes back some 90 years, when the Argentine Supreme Court began chipping
away at property rights as a way of addressing economic inequality.
Argentine politicians quickly learned that lawful plunder was their path to
power.
This history is still being written, and the latest chapter ought to
frighten Americans."
