That has been a very good series of comments. Thank you very much. It's the kind of answers that only cross cultural residents can give.
I realize that it is still very early in Milei's term, and his first order of business is to get the excessive government expenditures under control, but how high on his agenda is it to get the corruption and unions under control?
I am also very interested in hearing how the ordinary people of Argentina are feeling about all the change. The official media likes to paint pictures one way, but I have lived long enough to know better than to believe "their truth."

I'm not naive enough to believe that this new government can perform miracles, but I do believe that a majority realise that we simply could not carry on with Massa's way of doing things, not to mention the Kaka corruption.

I very much agree with Splinter.
Sorting out the economy is the first priority and as it won't be easy it'll take time. Sorting out the unions and corruption will come further down the list....if time allows.

They have successfully tackled the social groups that have extorted the poor and weak, made sure that city centre roads are open during protests and uncovered countless corruption schemes so far, but it's a delicate balancing act.
The unions are so powerful that a different modus operandi is probably required.

Indeed. Those mentioned first are the small fry who don't have much clout. The bigger fish are the ones who do all the damage. God knows how they'll be sorted out. They're dangerous.
