米莱在2024达沃斯论坛上的演讲
［ 阿根廷的案例是一个实证，表明无论你有多富有，拥有多少自然资源，或者你的人口有多熟练或受过教育，或者你在中央银行有多少金条，如果采取阻碍市场自由运作、自由竞争、自由定价体系的措施，如果你阻碍自由贸易，如果你攻击私有财产，唯一可能的命运就是贫穷。］
下午好！非常感谢。今天我在这里告诉你们，西方世界正处于危险之中。这种危险是因为那些本应捍卫西方价值观的人，被一种不可避免导致社会主义的世界观所同化，从而导致贫穷。
不幸的是，在最近几十年里，出于一些本着善意希望帮助他人的个人动机，以及出于希望属于特权阶层的愿望，西方世界的主要领导人放弃了自由模式，转而采用我们所称的集体主义的不同版本。我们在这里告诉你，集体主义实验永远不是解决困扰世界公民问题的解决方案。相反，它们是根本原因……
鉴于集体主义模式的惨败和自由世界不可否认的进步，社会主义者被迫改变他们的议程。他们抛弃了基于经济体系的阶级斗争，取而代之的是其他所谓的社会冲突，这些冲突对社区生活和经济增长同样有害。
这些新战斗中的第一个是男性和女性之间荒谬且不自然的斗争……这种激进的女权主义议程所导致的只是增加国家干预经济过程，给那些对社会没有贡献的官僚们创造工作机会。例如：妇女部或致力于推广这一议程的国际组织。
社会主义者引入的另一个冲突是人类与自然的对立，他们声称我们人类损害了地球，应该不惜一切代价保护它，甚至提倡人口控制机制或血腥的堕胎议程。
不幸的是，这些有害的想法在我们社会中扎根甚深。新马克思主义者设法同化了西方世界的常识，他们通过占有媒体、文化、大学等手段达到了这一目的……
阿根廷的案例是一个实证，表明无论你有多富有，拥有多少自然资源，或者你的人口有多熟练或受过教育，或者你在中央银行有多少金条，如果采取阻碍市场自由运作、自由竞争、自由定价体系的措施，如果你阻碍贸易，如果你攻击私有财产，唯一可能的命运就是贫穷……
如今，国家不需要直接控制生产资料就能控制个人生活的各个方面，他们可以使用印钞、债务、补贴、控制利率、价格控制和规章来纠正所谓的市场失败。他们可以控制数百万个人的生活和命运……
在大多数西方国家普遍接受的政治立场实际上是集体主义的变种，无论他们是公开宣称自己是共产主义者、法西斯主义者、纳粹、社会主义者、社会民主主义者、国家社会主义者、民主基督教徒还是基督教民主党人。他们实际上是新凯恩斯主义者、进步主义者、民粹主义者、民族主义者或全球主义者。没有什么大的不同。他们都说国家应该掌控个人生活的各个方面。他们都捍卫与带领人类走向历史上最壮观进步的模型相反的模型。
我们今天来到这里，邀请西方世界的其他国家回到繁荣、经济自由、政府有限……和对私有财产无限尊重的道路上来……
集体主义造成的贫困不是幻想，也不是不可避免的命运。但这是我们阿根廷人非常了解的现实。我们经历了这一切。我们经历了这一切，因为正如我之前所说，自从我们决定放弃使我们变富的自由模型，我们就陷入了一个恶性循环，我们每天都变得越来越穷……
最后，我想给在场的所有商人以及那些没有亲自到场但在世界各地关注的人留下一条信息。不要被政治阶层或靠国家为生的寄生虫所吓倒。不要向只想保持权力和保留特权的政治阶层屈服。
你们是社会的恩人。你们是英雄。你们是我们所见过的最非凡繁荣时期的创造者。不要让任何人告诉你，你的雄心是不道德的。如果你赚钱，那是因为你提供了更好的产品，价格更优，从而为整体福祉做出了贡献。
不要向国家的进步屈服。国家不是解决方案。国家本身就是问题。你们是这个故事的真正主角，而且请放心，从今天开始，阿根廷是你们坚定不移的盟友。"
Good afternoon！Thank you very much. Today I'm here to tell you that the Western world is in danger. And it is endangered because those who are supposed to defend the values of the West are co-opted by a vision of the world that inexorably leads to socialism and thereby to poverty.
Unfortunately, in recent decades, motivated by some well-meaning individuals willing to help others and others motivated by the wish to belong to a privileged caste, the main leaders of the Western world have abandoned the model of freedom for different versions of what we call collectivism. We're here to tell you that collectivist experiments are never the solution to the problems that afflict the citizens of the world. Rather, they are the root cause....
Given the dismal failure of collectivist models and the undeniable advances in the free world, socialists were forced to change their agenda. They left behind the class struggle based on the economic system, and replaced this with other supposed social conflicts, which are just as harmful to life as a community and to economic growth.
The first of these new battles was the ridiculous and unnatural fight between man and woman.... All that this radical feminism agenda has led to is greater state intervention to hinder the economic process, giving jobs to bureaucrats who have not contributed anything to society. Examples: ministries of women or international organizations devoted to promoting this agenda.
Another conflict introduced by socialists is that of humans against nature, claiming that we human beings damage the planet, which should be protected at all costs, going as far as advocating for population control mechanisms or the bloody abortion agenda.
Unfortunately, these harmful ideas have taken a strong hold in our society. Neo-Marxists have managed to co-opt the common sense of the Western world, and this they have achieved by appropriating the media, culture, universities....
The case of Argentina is an empirical demonstration that no matter how rich you may be or how much you may have in terms of natural resources, or how skilled your population may be or educated, or how many bars of gold you may have in the central bank, if measures are adopted that hinder the free functioning of markets, free competition, free price systems, if you hinder trade, if you attack private property, the only possible fate is poverty....
Today, states don't need to directly control the means of production to control every aspect of the lives of individuals, with tools such printing money, debt, subsidies, controlling the interest rate, price controls, and regulations to correct so-called market failures. They can control the lives and fates of millions of individuals....
A good deal of the generally accepted political [positions] in most Western countries are collectivist variants, whether they proclaim to be openly communists, fascists, Nazis, socialists, social Democrats, National Socialists, Democrat Christians, or Christian Democrats.
They are neo-Keynesians, progressive, populist, nationalist or globalists at bottom. There are no major differences. They all say that the state should steer all aspects of the lives of individuals. They all defend a model contrary to the one that led humanity to the most spectacular progress in its history.
We have come here today to invite the rest of the countries in the Western world to get back on the path of prosperity, economic freedom, limited government...and unlimited respect for private property....
The impoverishment produced by collectivism is no fantasy, nor is it an inescapable fate. But it's a reality that we Argentines know very well. We have lived through this. We have been through this because, as I said earlier, ever since we decided to abandon the model of freedom that had made us rich, we have been caught up in a downward spiral, as part of which we are poorer and poorer day by day....
In concluding, I would like to leave a message for all businesspeople here and for those who are not here in person but are following from around the world. Do not be intimidated, either by the political caste or by parasites who live off the state. Do not surrender to a political class that only wants to stay in power and retain its privileges.
You are social benefactors. You are heroes. You're the creators of the most extraordinary period of prosperity we've ever seen. Let no one tell you that your ambition is immoral. If you make money, it's because you offer a better product at a better price, thereby contributing to general well-being.
Do not surrender to the advance of the state. The state is not the solution. The state is the problem itself. You are the true protagonists of this story and rest assured that as from today, Argentina is your staunch, unconditional ally.
