In my experience, Conservatives usually don't do anything to improve the income levels of working class people.
There are other options than laissez-faire capitalism or communism.
The issue is that there has to be pain in the present for a much better future.
Tbf, Milei isn't a conservative, he's a genuine AnCap, which is somehow even more pathetic. He's tearing down everything in general, rather than trying to entrench Capitalist Power via fascism.
Not saying this won't lead to fascism, there's a large chance it does, but rather than moving directly towards fascism, Miley is moving directly towards destruction of government, which will likely result in an acceleration of Capitalism to fascism.
Edit: conservativism is terrible, but grouping AnCaps in with conservatives is like saying aspens are oak trees. Both are unique brands of stupid, but one of em has a MAGA hat and the other has a gadsden flag tattooed to their ass. Recognizing the differences between types of reactionary is useful.
