The cryptocurrency scam scandal has highlighted the president's inclination towards gambling and betting in the financial game, as well as his promotion of disvalues from the heights of power. Javier Milei has been pointed out for explicitly encouraging financial speculation, including the participation of global vulture funds like Black Rock, with which the country is in debt.
American lawyers following the case of the cryptocurrency Libra have called it "misleading promotion," meaning a form of fraud. From the perspective of Argentine law, Milei could be considered a "necessary participant" in a fraud if the laws are applied correctly.
In addition to this scandal, other disvalues are highlighted in the presidential actions, such as the extension by decree of the national budget without the legislative approval required by the Constitution. The decree for the privatization of the Banco Nación and the appointment of court judges without the Senate's consent have also been observed.
Milei's challenge to the promotion of the national industry, public works, and social justice adds to a list of actions that go against traditional Argentine values. The restriction on public education service and the underfunding of the university teaching sector are part of these dissolving measures.
The president has shown a tendency to deny Argentine history and tradition since taking office, questioning national movements such as radicalism and peronism. In summary, the cryptocurrency scam scandal and other disvalues in presidential action send a bad example to the youth, who must learn respect for the Constitution, history, and honest work as a fundamental virtue.
