You missed the point. Stoner and Kalashnikov did essentially the same thing. They invented one very successful product. The one that did it in a socialist country remained poor. The one that lived in a capitalist country became rich. It is the opposite of the claim you made, that the engineers and inventers are rewarded more in socialist countries. No one intelligent cares about communists and their nonsense labor theory of value. I couldn't care less what socialists care about or who they think is being exploited.

I think for people like you who lack intellectual curiosity, it's difficulty for you to understand that the history of geniuses in scientific and technological advancement are too consumed with curiosity to care about wealth generation. They are the type of people who if encountering some math problems, cannot step away from the problem until they solve it because they are addicted to curiosity to a newer debilitating degree. These people are not motivated by wealth generation because their brains are consumed with intellectual curiosity.

Milei is the socialist ****ers' nightmare.

He - once again - proves that socialism leads to misery, while freedom and small government lead to prosperity.

{BBC} Argentina president faces impeachment calls over crypto crash

Argentine President Javier Milei is facing impeachment calls - and legal action accusing him of fraud - over his promotion of cryptocurrency on social media.

Milei posted on X, formerly Twitter, about the $LIBRA coin on Friday, which he said would help fund small businesses and start-ups.

He shared a link to buy it, causing its price to shoot up. But within a few hours, he deleted his post and the cryptocurrency nosedived in value, losing investors most of their money.

Some opposition members of Congress say they plan to start proceedings to impeach Milei. Meanwhile, lawyers filed complaints of fraud in Argentina's criminal court on Sunday.

Some people online have accused Milei of what is known as a "rug pull" - where promoters of a cryptocurrency draw in buyers, only to stop trading activity and make off with the money raised from sales. They pointed out that the link used to buy the coins referenced a phrase the president uses in his speeches.

But Argentina's presidential office said on Saturday that the decision to remove the post was to avoid "speculation" following public reaction to the launch of the cryptocurrency.

Presidential RugPull. The classiest type.

Javie Bro hawk tuahd a meme coin because Trump had one for himself. So he either was a fool who pumped a meme coin that mislead retail into dumping 100M into it or he received a little something in return without disclosing it.

As for prosecuting "Crimes", the SEC was trash before and is even more trash now with elon and Sacks(rome) pumping crypto.

Shulda dun ur resurch dummy!!

Did I get in too late with the pump and dump?

Man I keep on missing these national leader **** coin pump and dumps. What next national leader is going to start a **** coin?

Also you can tell the difference between America presidential power and Argentinian presidential power in that Trump never had to back track or apologize for a literal pump and dump crypto scam and this Milei freak had to.

Guys is this a sign human society is collapsing? When world leaders do open and brazen pyramid schemes?

Who knew a self labeled libertarian who believes you can solve poverty with "unregulated markets" would start a national crypto pump and dump schemes as president of their country?

THOUGHT?

No one saw it coming

Naive or ethically unsound, more so the latter given the statements he's now made. There's no smoking gun here.

This caught my attention:
https://buenosairesherald.com/polit...stors-in-first-interview-after-crypto-scandal

He also denied initial estimates that 44,000 people were affected by the scam, because “many of those were bots.” “It was 5,000 people, at best,” he claimed. The president said that the chances of any of them being Argentine were “very, very remote,” adding that the affected were investors “hyper-specialized in these kinds of instruments.”

Did he inadvertently out Elon/X's bot problem? Is X using bots themselves?
