    When I say “work” I mean in regards of accumulating wealth. These people I am talking about that I meant were usually EU supporters and admirers of countries like Germany and others, not understanding that capitalism in the Global North works through the plunder of the South. Sure, this libertarianism will go nowhere, but if they embrace it it is by taking northern countries and philosophy as the point of reference.

      ok, but those European countries have never been libertarian, neoliberal in recent years sure, but that’s been the point where things went to shit. If they wanted to copy our ‘success’, they should look at our social-democratic period where the bourgeoisie were willing to pay off the workers (with the scraps of neo-imperialism which obviously is not available to Argentina).
