00:00I'm going to talk. Yesterday, Minister Petovello said he lowered poverty and made an announcement, Rubén, right?

00:05Well, let's look at the numbers because the studies that are being done in private, especially at the University of Itela,

00:11based on official numbers of the index, they would be marking that.

00:16This number is the number that exploded us, made us explode all over our heads.

00:2052.9% in the first half of 2024.

00:25Now, at that time, we already knew, because when you measure poverty, a minimum clarification,

00:31when you measure poverty, you are measuring poverty by income in Argentina.

00:35So there is structural poverty, there is poverty that can vary according to how income evolves.

00:40In Argentina, with inflation, that has been very volatile.

00:44So the number changes and changes.

00:46Let's see, when in a month you have 25% inflation, the number changes and changes a lot.

00:50So it was known that once that fire had passed, as many economists call it, this was going to calm down.

00:57What we didn't know was how.

00:59At the end of 2024, the evaluation that the private numbers are doing is that poverty is exactly 36.8%.

01:06That's where what Sandra Petovello said comes from.

01:11How is this explained? It is explained by two issues.

01:14First, the evolution of inflation, as I was saying.

01:17Low inflation.

01:19So the cost of the income, the cost of the basic basket, for your income to reach the basic basket, the relationship changes.

01:28And that's where poverty is measured.

01:30You are measuring poverty by what is the income you have to have to be able to access these minimum goods.

01:35One is poverty, the other is, as I said, indigent.

01:38So, the issue of inflation, obviously, lowered inflation and fell and made you change.

01:42But this issue, this other issue, is the one that also, in the most needed sectors, impacted more.

01:48It helped, of course.

01:49It helped a lot.

01:50The rise of the AUH was 351%.

01:54It was clearly above inflation.

01:56The universal assignment for the child.

01:58And the second point was the food card, which rose 137.5%.

02:03This, the government, and I recommend following an American economist, Mary Castiglione, who updates this continuously.

02:10The government said this and you could see it.

02:12What did the government do?

02:14It distributed, while it was cutting social plans and pursuing the issue of cards and card plans,

02:22it raised two tools above inflation.

02:25The AUH, Clara, you know this well, and the food card.

02:30And I'll add something, Rubén.

02:33Also, last year, there was a shock with the issue of the annual school aid.

02:39The annual school aid was, according to inflation, below.

02:43And as an exceptional single payment, it rose and was updated more than inflation.

02:48All this also helped the low of poverty.

02:51Of course.

02:52What we are clear about, here, I can use a word that Cristina used.

02:57There was no magic.

02:58What happened was that inflation dropped and, on the other hand, in the most needed sectors,

03:03it was always true that the government reinforced.

03:06It's not that it cut all the social aid.

03:08Plans were cut, the issue of plans was pursued, the issue of the dining rooms that didn't exist.

03:13Luis, we've been following this for a long time.

03:15How long have we been following this?

03:16Of course.

03:17The issue of 20,000 dining rooms, and when they passed the PIN, there were less than a quarter left.

03:21They started with 45,000.

03:22We have 45,000 dining rooms.

03:24I remember the first note we made.

03:26Then we got to 20,000.

03:27Exactly.

03:28Then we got to 8,000.

03:29I mean, it's not like they went for a little bit, right?

03:31Let's see.

03:32Less than a quarter of those who were denounced and who were on the register of the dining rooms existed.

03:37Well, all that was combed, but while they were doing this...
