So I was watching a bit of a discussion about the situation in Argentina and if their ancap president has been successful? Mostly it was libertarians calling it a victory because it makes them look good politically. It is also a style of doing things that is making its way into the US, as DOGE was inspired by the Argentine Admin.

While there are something that do seem to imply an economic recovery they did just get a huge bailout (not sure why a recovery that is doing so well needs one) as well as food insecurity, along with pensioners protesting.

Aside from this specific case that will be very polarizing; how do you try to discern in real time what is misleading?

    One thing that will help is separating between if a policy is effective in achieving a political goal and if achieving the political goal over other political goals is effective.
