People didn't become poorer from one day to another, here in Argentina food, services and health are heavily subsidized indiscriminately with money the country does not have.

Money that until last year was printed indiscriminately as well

As the subsided amount is being reduced because there is no way to pay for it, it's understandable people will start entering the brackets for poverty.

Also, as more money is not being printed, inflation has been lowering as well.

Which has the side effects of lowering poverty as well

The current poverty index is sitting at 49% for the May -October period.

So it is clearly improving

Beyond that i don't see a reason why you ask people to not reason with others. That's basically the whole point of communication. Which I would understand if you had no argument to discuss, but you seem articulate so it does look weird.

Turns out people have forgotten the oldest rule of the internet, don't feed the troll. When I was younger I thought people like you were just uneducated, and that if I could reason with you, you were actually going to change your mind. Turns out it's not like that, you are not here to change your mind when presented with new evidence, as regular people with a pinch of self reflection do, you just want to amplify what your little echo chamber says. Trying to reason with you would be time wasted, and now I'm older and tired to just argue for the sake of it, so hard pass.
