Why were anarchists in revolutionary Catalonia during the Spanish civil war able to enrich everybody equally in a short amount of time, but Argentina under austrian economics has not been able to achieve the same feat?

Anarchist who took control of Catalonia in Spain during the Spanish Civil War were able to enrich everybody in that territory by allowing people access to free goods and services produced by the collective labor of the workers. Everyone was as rich as everyone else because they all had access to the whole bounty of collective labor of the workers in that territory. People could go to the store and pick what they wanted without having to pay money or work for a boss, and they achieved this by reorganizing the economy by rule by worker’s committees in less than a year. Why haven’t the people of Argentina been able to do the same under a year or so of rule under austrian economics with Milei?

It seems to me that if Austrian economics were so valuable as it’s adherents claim it is (at least the current interpretation of it), then it would be able to enrich everyone as much as libertarian socialism did under their rule, in their territory did within the same amount of time, or at all. Is Austrian economics at least questionable because of this?
