It seems extremely naive and dangerous to trust that the crazy anti-science right wing populist actually having a working plan for anything, much less ending a national deficit.
He’s been around for over 10 years repeating the same stuff, and when you take a look at it, it does make sense. I don’t trust him completely, but I like this proposal a lot. Ecuador had a great experience after dollarizing, this can be seen in the inflation data and I have also heard good things from fellow Ecuadorians.
I know nothing of the situation, but consider if he is the o it one saying it it might he for a reason. Populists never end well. They tell you what you want to hear. More often than not telling you what you want to hear morphs into making you agree with what they say.
