Plus its annual inflation rate is 2.2%, proving that common sense and hard work are sufficient to run even a country with no natural resources well.

Taiwan. It's gdp is projected to grow over 9% this year. It's government debt-to-gdp ratio is around 23%. National healthcare is excellent, affordable and available to all residents regardless of age. It's government is efficient and fair. Taxes are low. Infrastructure is excellent. In short...

The money quote: In other words, the only way for a country to become wealthy is for its citizens to create goods and services the rest of the world wants to buy. That's what resource-poor Taiwan and Japan have done and what nanny state Argentina has failed to do since the 1930's. Trying to...

New York City is not and never has been socialist but it's about to be under self-proclaimed democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani, America's answer to Juan Peron and "Justicialismo."

I'm a U.S. citizen originally from the Left Coast. Fact is I'm happy Mamdani won by promising a lot of free stuff that will be paid for by other people's money, which New York City has plenty of. It's about time socialism was tried somewhere where it has half a chance of working. Russia and...

You're confusing socialists with communists.

I like it fine because it's true. Milei is probably enticing wealthy New Yorkers to come to Argentina so he'll have enough other people's money to muddle thru Argentina's transformation from nanny state to successful capitalist economy like Taiwan's.

I spent several months in Argentina in 1996 studying Spanish and getting to know how things worked before deciding to expatriate to Taiwan instead. It was clear even then that Argentina's free money system would never work because it lacked enough other people's money to make it work and...

That's good because socialism only works if there's enough other people's money to pay for all those free things Mamdani promised.

Once New Havana City is up and running this time might be different.

It's often been said that Mamdani-Leninism didn't fail. It's just never been tried. That's because Russia is the last place Mamdani-Leninism should have been rolled out because there's just not enough other people's money there to ever make it work. Manhattan is where M-L should have been tried...

The 'Other People's Money' visa has a nice ring to it.

What nobody in Argentina seems to get is that government doesn't create wealth. Individuals like Jensen Huang, Morris Chang, and Elon Musk create the goods and services that make a country wealthy. Biden printed the money he gave out. That's why it was inflationary. Taiwan is returning tax...
