Argentina cerró su primer superávit fiscal sostenido en más de una década. Lo lograron haciendo lo que ningún gobierno argentino se animó en toda mi vida: dejar de gastar plata que no existe. Recortaron el gasto público, eliminaron ministerios enteros, liberaron precios, y la inflación mensual bajó de niveles que licuaban cualquier salario a un solo dígito. Sin rescates milagrosos ni trucos contables. Pura disciplina. La lección vale igual para España y para Estados Unidos. Un Estado que gasta menos de lo que recauda practica aritmética básica, y los países que respetan esa aritmética prosperan mientras los que la ignoran terminan fundiendo los ahorros de su propia gente. Milei demostró que se podía.
