2 new charming initiatives by the Milei Maladministration:

1. A xenophobic push to restrict immigration and charge foreigners for (up to now free) health and education.
2. An push to deregulate gas station rules and allow self-serving, which will probably result on all gas stations firing employees and moving to self-service (this is trivial compared to the other, but I was just yesterday reading this [thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-found-a-service-station-today/1011050) feeling pity for the barbarian wastelands of the USA where you have to pump your own gas…) Mileites truly love the worst things about the U.S. and are hellbent on importing them.
