As Ms Weber claims, it's true that Milei's measure caused an increase in poverty. But talking about inflation using y/y numbers is misleading: during period of high price change, it' better to use the m/m data. Monthly inflation is down from the pre-Milei peak in Argentina.

Stop abusing Community Notes to defend the highest inflation rate in the world. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(3-0-3) Author

Since Milei entered the office, the YoY inflation rate increased by 81% first and now it is only 25% over Dec-23 Similarly, he increased MoM inflation rate first that is now 4% due to the deep recession. Burning down the economy to disinflation is not an achievement NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(0-0-0) Author
