So each society will awaken to the light of the ideas of freedom whenever it can.
And I'm optimistic that they will
become aware that the best thing you can do is espouse the ideas of freedom.
And we can exemplify this with Argentina.
We had inflation increasing 1% a day, so we were headed to 17,000%.
We halted fiscal deficit, which was 5% of GDP in the treasury.
We halted that in the first month.
It would have seemed impossible.
But it was not impossible for the world's best economy minister, Toto Caputo, and the best minister we've ever had in our history.
In only six months' time, we fixed the quasi-fiscal deficit, and we also stopped the money amount of the...
printing money.
Now we are looking at 24, 25, depending on whether you take the wholesale rates.
So everyone was predicting a hyper recession.
But Argentina reached a floor in April and then started to grow strongly.
The latest figures show the economy growing at 4.2%.
We have lifted 30% of the population out of poverty.
15 million people have been lifted out of poverty.
That the free market works, that free market capitalism works because those are the fundamentals I referred to yesterday in my Davos address.
Free enterprise capitalism is not only just and efficient, but it also lets the economy grow more.
When you design policies on the basis of ethical and moral values, the Western values, you thrive and you also enjoy social consensus because you're doing what is just, what is fair.
