As Kamala Harris’s economic plan evolves around a failed communist policy of rent controls, Javier Milei ditched them in Argentina.
When Javier Milei was elected President of Argentina, one of his first orders was to scrap the country’s onerous rent controls. According to The Wall Street Journal, here’s what happened next.
Landlords are rushing to put their properties back on the market, with Buenos Aires rental supplies increasing by over 170%. While rents are still up in nominal terms, many renters are getting better deals than ever, with a 40% decline in the real price of rental properties when adjusted for inflation since last October, said Federico González Rouco, an economist at Buenos Aires-based Empiria Consultores.
Before that, they preferred to keep them empty.
In Buenos Aires—a city dubbed the Paris of the South for its broad avenues and cafe culture—many apartments long sat empty, with landlords preferring to keep them vacant, or lease them as vacation rentals, rather than comply with the government’s rent law.
In 2022, there were some 200,000 empty properties in Buenos Aires, up 45% from 2018, according to a report by Cedesu, a Buenos Aires-based policy group that focuses on urban development. Finding an affordable apartment under the rent-control law was difficult.
Harris’s economic plan will fail. It is the exact wrong thing to do.

Do You Want Your Prepper Bar Shipped to Your Home or Added to Your IRA?

The massive shift of money being exchanged for physical precious metals started in 2022 with Central Banks across the globe breaking records. The frenzy caught on with large investment firms and financial institutions like BlackRock and JPMorgan in 2023.
2024 has been the year of regular citizens making the same move. This year also marked the launch of the first gold and silver “utility bars” being minted in the United States. The Prepper Bar has been making waves since its summer launch and is now eligible to be including in a Genesis Gold IRA.
The question for Americans is whether to buy Prepper Bars with cash to put them in their safes and wallets or to include them in their retirement accounts to secure their future.
“We’ve seen a dramatic spike in interest this month, likely because the election is around the corner,” said Jonathan Rose, CEO of Genesis Gold Group, the exclusive distributor of Prepper Bars. “Some are just buying them with cash while others include them in tax-free rollovers or transfers of their retirement accounts.
“More and more, we’re seeing people do both. They’re having some shipped to their homes while putting some in their Genesis Gold IRA depositories.” […] READ MORE
