What a downer. Larry you always find a way to get people visiting Buenos Aires get depressed!Reggie take what you read on this forum with a grain of salt. Some are overly optimistic with this President. Most of these people on this forum probably have US dollar savings or income. They are out of touch with the typical local that is struggling. I would guess many don't venture away from Palermo or other rich areas.
It is a horrible time and there are more strikes and protests after a Presidential election than history. A majority of Argentines aren't happy with Milei. A good indicator of how good economy is doing is unemployment rates. Milei is terminating tens of thousands of public sector employees. And private sector employers are also laying off massive amount of employees. Argentina is in a recession and most likely will go into depression soon.
Restaurants and many small businesses are going out of business or soon will go bankrupt or close. Many companies can't make money under these conditions. Tourism is slowing down as Argentina gets more expensive. You will see more and more businesses closed probably even before you arrive. I agree with others that say it will be safe so you will be fine on trip. But you will see more and more homeless. Many people don't have money to eat.
Just be aware and check ahead of time for national strikes which can paralyze the city. But things aren't optimistic like some pretend here or at least the reality is different for locals vs. expats with dollars or euros.
Also you will find that restaurants are probably not much less than what you will pay in the USA or Europe or many will be more expensive. Walk into supermarket and you will see it is probably the same price as back home. I don't want to spoil your trip but things here are not rosy.
