Was in Buenos Aires earlier this year. Watta mess. City and country. We took a tour of the city and our guide was very honest about the history and problems. Apparently, the dollar is the unofficial official currency for all important transactions including real estate. 100% inflation and all. Horrible corruption.

#7  Milei said he wants to dollarize the economy, making the dollar the legal tender.
Problem is, Argentina doesn't really have dollars left in the National Bank.
