For Milei, the Argentine currency “is not useful for payment” and that is why he has proposed dollarizing the economy. “The peso is the currency issued by the Argentine politician and, therefore, it cannot be worth even excrement. That garbage is not even useful for fertilizer,” said the new Argentine president.
