About 10% of Argentina’s electricity comes from nuclear power plants. But libertarian President Javier Milei wants to privatize the state-owned nuclear energy company.

So Milei appointed a 23-year-old internet libertarian activist, Ezequiel Acuña, to run the state nuclear company.

Acuña has ZERO experience in nuclear energy. He graduated high school in 2020 and started studying political science in college, but dropped out of the program. He never formally studied science, or even management.

Acuña is also being paid a starting salary that is 10 times larger than the average salary in the private sector, which he and Milei worship, as libertarians.

Acuña has never worked in nuclear energy or anything related. His only “qualification” is that he tweets libertarian propaganda in support of Milei. And the Milei regime thinks that is enough.

This is actually existing libertarianism.

    On the one hand, it’s very funny to call Argentina the first 4th world country

    On the other, there are millions of people suffering because of these twats. Imagine living in this hell being fully aware of the fact that you’ll never get another chance at life after you die. You just happened to be born in the times of struggle. Although that should also be the motivation, that the ones who come after get a better world than we did.
