The criticisms towards dollarization of the economy that proposes Javier Miley, presidential candidate for La Libertad Avanza, are varied. Some come from economists and others from politicians. However, in the last week the president of the Supreme Court of Justice, Horacio Rosattito criticize this measure that the liberal leader would take.
True to his style, the national deputy did not remain silent and during an event in Parque Norte he crossed it: “We have a consensus that stealing is wrong, now if it is wrong, let’s think about this exercise. He stole a photocopier, I start copying bills and I want to buy their goods. I like your boots, I print tickets and I want to buy them. “No one would give me anything because it is counterfeit, it is a scam,” he began.
«The state can do it because there is a forced course that is protected by the monopoly of violence that the State has, it is unequal treatment before the law, it is theft, it is violence. So the first thing that, for example, Mr. Rosatti would have to explain why for stealing it is good because for me and all Argentinians it is good and wrong«, responded Javier Milei.
Following this, he pointed out that “there is another criticism that says that Argentina could not be dollarized. The reality is that I would have to let the Argentines choose the currency they want and if they choose the dollar, it is the Argentines’ problem, but we are talking about currency competition,” added the presidential candidate.
What had Rosatti said?
For his part, during the week Rosatti had criticized dollarization in Argentina because it went against the National Constitution: «What is the currency of a country? The one that emits: it can be peso or patacón or whatever. If dollarization eliminates the Argentine currency it is unconstitutional. If I abandon one currency and go entirely to the other, it is a path that, for me, It is unconstitutional«said the magistrate.
