La NaciónIndependent🔒ConservativeFactual 65Objective 552 days ago What is the "fiscal grid", the local adaptation that Javier Milei wants of a mechanism used in the United StatesThe Argentine government, led by President Javier Milei, is proposing a fiscal 'shutdown' mechanism inspired by the U.S. system but adapted to fit Argentina's needs. This measure would automatically activate if the country remains in deficit for several consecutive months without Congress restoring fiscal balance. During this period, high-level officials including the president, vice president, senators, deputies, ministers, and other senior staff would lose their salaries. The proposal was developed by Milei along with his ministers of deregulation, economics, and the central bank governor. While the U.S. shutdown occurs due to political disagreements over budget approval, Argentina's version aims to prevent deficits by legally enforcing fiscal discipline. Officials emphasize that the goal is to maintain a surplus rather than force political compromise. The plan includes potential steps allowing Congress to reduce certain spending before triggering the shutdown.

PerfilIndependentProgressiveFactual 60Objective 552 days ago "Milei is preparing for a defeat?": Jorge Carrera's warning about the reform of the Central Bank in "QR!"Exviceministro del Banco Central, Jorge Carrera, criticó en el programa 'QR!' la reforma propuesta por el gobierno de Javier Milei para reorganizar el Banco Central. Carrera argumentó que el enfoque oficial se centra solo en la emisión monetaria, ignorando el impacto del endeudamiento acumulado por varios gobiernos argentinos, incluyendo períodos de dictadura, menemismo, y gobiernos de De la Rúa y Macri. Sostuvo que estas prácticas generaron consecuencias igualmente graves que la emisión monetaria. Además, alertó que limitar únicamente el financiamiento monetario excluye otros tipos de deuda, como la con instituciones públicas, privadas y organismos internacionales. Finalmente, sugirió que la reforma podría verse como una forma de establecer reglas económicas predefinidas incluso si Milei pierde las próximas elecciones.

La NaciónIndependent🔒ConservativeFactual 55Objective 652 days ago Milei will send to Congress a project to reform the organic charter of the Central BankPresidente Javier Milei anunció en cadena nacional una reforma a la carta orgánica del Banco Central Argentino (BCRA), que busca limitar sus funciones a la preservación del valor de la moneda, prohibir su uso para financiar al gobierno o entidades locales, y fortalecer la independencia de sus autoridades. La propuesta incluye restricciones a la distribución de dividendos y la eliminación de letras intransferibles. Milei destacó esta reforma como parte de un paquete más amplio de cambios estructurales, incluyendo un 'grillete fiscal' que podría provocar un shutdown si el Congreso no restaura el equilibrio fiscal. También anunció proyectos para liberalizar el mercado de capitales y reformar el sistema de seguros, con el objetivo de mejorar el acceso al crédito y promover la inversión. Durante su discurso, Milei criticó históricamente la gestión del BCRA, acusando a la 'alta política' de haber utilizado la emisión monetaria para financiar gastos, lo que ha generado altas tasas de inflación.
