    In May 2016, economist Javier González Fraga explained the essence of the economic model adopted by the government of president Mauricio Macri.

    “We are coming from 12 years where things were done in the wrong way,” Fraga said in an interview. “You made believe a middle-level employee that his wages could buy things such as cell phones, plasma TVs, cars, motorbikes and travel abroad.”

    No doubt, Fraga's words were not only prophetic - Macri's Joyful Revolution has succeeded beyond the economist's wildest hopes...

    No doubt these kind of achievements (and others) will make Mauricio Macri deserving of being re-elect with honours in 2019.
