Record of direct assistance
The management of Javier Miley carried out a strong adjustment on public employment. He also cut real wages and national public works. However, the Government decided to expand the direct social assistance.
The amount of benefits of AUH, To feed y 1000 Days Plan grew noticeably. These benefits reached a record of 7.4 million of beneficiaries in 2025. The State eliminated intermediaries in the delivery of these resources.
The AUH reached its highest real level since 2009. This program grew by 375% compared to December 2023. This represents an improvement 145% in real purchasing power.
Today, the 93,5% of social resources reaches families directly. At the beginning of the administration, half of the money went through social intermediaries. The sum of plans covers the Basic Food Basket for minors.
The fiscal adjustment fell heavily on formal workers and retirees. The Government applied the plan «Zero Deficit» strictly. The chainsaw affected transfers to provinces and general consumption.
This policy prevented a social outbreak after the initial devaluation. Assistance works as a dam for indigence extreme. Without this income, destitution would practically double in the country.
The labor market suffered greater precariousness between 2023 and 2025. The middle sectors face the increase in transportation and rent costs. Working poverty expands while destitution diminishes.
In cities like The Silverthe deterioration in consumption is very evident. The commercial decline and the fall of changas affect the social climate. The Government protects the food floor but the social elevator remains stopped.
Current social stability rests on this focused containment. The ruling party did not eliminate the social plans. On the contrary, it made them more decisive for technical governance.
The future depends on the recovery of the private employment genuine. If formal income does not increase, the emergency network will lose effectiveness. The current balance is necessary but is still very fragile.
