Unions are meeting to discuss their response to an adjustment plan whose burden, they warn, will fall on the working class: ‘A total social tsunami is coming’
Yearly inflation for December 2023 has been 160% (stuff that used to cost 100, now costs 260)
A 50% devaluation, is the same as a 100% inflation: stuff that used to cost 100, now costs 200.
Milei has promised a reduction in inflation for the next year, from the 160% to just 60% (stuff that used to cost 100, plus through the 50% devaluation now costs 200, will end up costing just another 60% more, or 320“160”).
Meaning: instead of having to anounce a 220% inflation for 2024, he’s split it into “50% devaluation, plus 60% inflation”.
…see? He promised to reduce inflation, and he did! 🎉🤡 /s
