Javier Milei wants Argentina to swap the peso for the US dollar

A chainsaw-wielding, self-professed “anarcho-capitalist” is now one step closer to overhauling Argentina’s beleaguered economy — by throwing out the nation’s peso currency and adopting the US dollar as legal tender.

This bold move proposed by Javier Milei has sparked a heated debate among economists and politicians in Argentina. While some see it as a potential solution to the country's economic woes, others are skeptical about the implications of such a drastic change. Only time will tell if this controversial idea will come to fruition.
