Argentine presidential candidates attacked Massa
The different candidates assure that the management of the economy minister has not been very good
The candidates for the Presidency of Argentina attacked this during the second electoral debate against the also candidate and current Minister of Economy, Sergio Massa, for his economic management.
The ultra-liberal Javier Milei, from Libertad Avanza, assured that the main culprit of the country’s economic situation is “an impossible fiscal tangle” and a “caste spending model” that “generates fiscal deficit and raises taxes, or issues money and generates inflation, or goes into debt and then generates more risk for the country.”
“The measures to combat the caste model have to be complemented with a modernization of the labor system and reduction of penalties, so that there is growth with capital accumulation and rise in real wages,” added Milei, as published by the Argentine news agency Télam.
Candidate Patricia Bullrich, from Together for Change, has charged against “the political and union mafia of Kirchnerism” due to the “blockade” and “closing” of companies that “end Argentine work.”
“We are going to lower taxes on work. We want to make a real law for informal work so that, if you have informal work or have social plans, you can get jobs”, she proposed.
During his turn, Juan Schiaretti, current governor of the city of Córdoba and candidate for We Make Our Country, proposed a tax structure “that does not punish production.”
“We have to have a tax structure that does not punish production. We must eliminate withholdings on exports from the countryside and the agro-industrial complex. And we must replace distorting taxes such as Gross Income with a tax on the last sale or a provincial VAT such as Brazil has,” he said.
The candidate of the Left and Workers Front, Myriam Bregman, rejected that the “labor problems we have are the fault of the fact that there are workers who have many rights and that if we take them away from them, everyone else will be happier.”
