Without mentioning the removal of the fiscal package from the omnibus bill, or the dismissal of former Minister of Infrastructure Guillermo Ferrero, this Saturday President
Javier Milei surprised
on social networks by thanking the Spanish professor
Jesús Huerta de Soto
who praised his program and
proposed it for the Nobel Prize in Economics
.
"Thank you very much PROFESSOR Jesús Huerta de Soto... Long live fucking freedom,"
says Milei's brief message on social networks, but he attaches the video of Huerta Soto in a class in which he praises him for almost two minutes and proposes it for the prestigious Swedish award.
"A
disciple
, who has been one of the reasons for greatest joy in life, contrary to my recommendation, I already say it in my articles, do not destroy your life by dedicating yourself to politics and he has dedicated himself," Huerta Soto begins before the students .
"By chance of fate, the hand of God, he has ended up as president of the Argentine Republic. He has sacrificed his life. They
do not know what it is to dedicate themselves to politics and even more so in a country like Argentina,
not that it is especially bad, It's like Spain, it's destroying life," says the Spanish economist, lawyer and writer.
"He is going to immolate himself on that. I don't know what will happen with Milei and his program in Argentina. I only know two things: we already owe him something of immense value for humanity and that is having brought the idea to the agenda and made popular of freedom, terms such as anarcho-capitalism and awakening citizens from their lethargy," he emphasizes in a high tone.
"How many now are saying:
'I didn't know it, now that I listen to it I realize what I am, an anarcho-capitalist.'
It doesn't matter what happens in Argentina, although I want it to be very successful, but now what Milei has achieved has immense value
," says Huerta Soto.
"I've been repeating the same things for 40 years and now it has a universal echo. Good for Milei. And two, if it turns out well to moderately well... Look at how it's organized," he says in a joking tone.
Thank you very much PROFESSOR Jesús Huerta de Soto...!!!
LONG LIVE FUCKING FREEDOM

And he says: "
It would be to give the Nobel Prize in Economics
to Israel Kirzner as the greatest living representative of the Austrian school of Economics, and to President Javier Milei
as someone capable of putting that ideology into practice
."
Huerta de Soto is a professor of Political Economy at the Complutense and Rey Juan Carlos universities in Madrid.
At the Madrid university he is also the founder and director of the Official Master's Degree in Economics of the Austrian School.
Milei's relationship with Huerta Soto
At his inauguration, Javier Milei gave his speech with his back to Congress and quoted the Spanish economist: "As the great Jesús Huerta de Soto says, anti-poverty plans generate more poverty, the only way to get out of poverty is with more freedom ”.
Huerta de Soto thanked the president "enormously" for having mentioned him in his first speech as Head of State.
