Residents in Buenos Aires sell belongings to survive worsening poverty amid inflation, austerity, and job losses under President Milei.
In Buenos Aires’ Villa Fiorito, residents are increasingly selling personal belongings at street markets to survive a deepening economic crisis fueled by rising inflation, austerity measures under President Javier Milei, and widespread job losses.
Many, like vendor Gladys Gutierrez, rely on informal trade, buying goods on credit to resell, as nearly 90% of families carry debt—mostly for food—and over 40% of workers operate in the informal economy.
Despite Milei’s anti-inflation promises, economic hardship has intensified, echoing the 2001 collapse, sparking voter frustration and declining support in a key constituency ahead of mid-term elections.
