The security agenda promoted by the administration of Javier Milei has overwhelming social consensus at the start of 2026. According to a recent poll, more than 73% of Argentines agree with lowering the age of criminal liability to combat youth crime. As learned by the Argentine News Agency, the 'Public Report' by Giacobbe details that the 'hard line' position is the majority: 63.6% demand lowering the age of criminal liability to 13 years, while 9.5% accept lowering it to 14 years. Only 20.1% of respondents prefer to maintain the current limit at 16 years. Yellow light on economic reforms While security is in favor, structural reforms show more divided support: Labor Reform: It has the highest acceptance, with 45.6% agreement versus 42.7% disagreement. Tax Reform: Support drops to 36.4%, with a rejection of 27.2% and a high level of ignorance or lack of opinion. Pension Reform: This is the most critical point for Milei. According to the survey, only 32.1% agree with changes to the pension system, while 35.6% are against, and a large percentage of people do not have sufficient information. The survey was conducted via mobile devices on 2,500 cases nationwide with a margin of error of +/- 2%.
