That have been approved but execution has not begun will be cancelled. The Empower Work plan (social plan with about 160,000 beneficiaries) is maintained, but without updating. Now they charge 50% of the minimum wage in exchange for some compensation. On the contrary, the Universal Child Allowance (main social program in recent years) is increased by 100%; and 50% the Alimentar Card (with which you can purchase food). Import control is eliminated, which until now were subject to strict government control. Minutes after the measures were made public, the International Monetary Fund released a statement of support: “These bold initial actions aim to significantly improve public finances in a way that protects the most vulnerable in society and strengthens the exchange rate regime.”
The reactions in the opposition were also immediate. Juan Grabois, leader of a social organization and very close to Kirchnerism , was especially harsh, pointing out that the Minister of Economy presented “a social murder Phone Number Database without flinching, like a psychopath about to massacre his defenseless victims.” The former presidential candidate for the Trotskyist left Myriam Bregman assured that she is “facing a new and monstrous transfer from the workers to the most concentrated sectors of the economy.” And the leader of the Polo Obrero Eduardo Belliboni ratified the call to march on December 20 to the Plaza de Mayo, ensuring that “the Rodrigazo that Milei-Caputo announced will be defeated by fighting.”
THE RODRIGAZO Milei's very harsh adjustment plan has two antecedents: the one known as rodrigazo (1975), named after Minister Celestino Rodrigo , during the government of Isabelita Perón , and that of Ricardo López Murphy (2001), under the presidency of Fernando De the Rua . In both cases they failed and ended with the rapid resignation of the ministers. The first resisted 49 days, the second only three. The difference is that in both cases the adjustment measures were implemented with governments that were extremely worn out and in deep crisis. Milei, on the contrary, is beginning his government, has the support of 55.69% of the electorate and is doing what he had promised during the campaign.
