When he was chosen as finance minister, he was called the great hope who would save Brazil.
His resignation marks the beginning of the end for Brazil.

His job was extremely frustrating for him. His proposals for reform were ignored and the president insisted in her party "just give them the money we don't have" solution.

His introduction was like a circus show, didn't made a single difference and then he resigned.
It's like Dilma chose him just to continue exploiting foreign investors. Now foreign investors will run away from Brazil and never return.

I won't run away
I'm going to buy several taxi cabs in Brazil and start a "Crazy Taxi" service where we break speed limits and listen to ska

Why hasn't Brazil balkanized ages ago?

Rio Grande when? Parana when? Bahia when?
>>52340331
It's Pará, not Paraná.
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
>>52340371
>Paraná.
Grao-Para technically. Either way, Pernambuco too you faggot.
Parana can be independent too if they want to.
>>52340476
Paraná is the backyard of São Paulo.

They tried, the Empire curbed all revolts.
>Dilma places pro-austerity minister
>Congress doesn't approve any of his measures

>He suggests the return of CPMF seeing that it won't affect the average citizen
>Congress doesn't approve it
Fuck our congress desu. He was the only one who could save us but they kept blabbering about how a finance minister should have political influence, disguising the fact that the congress only wants to destabilize the government so Dilma can fall.
I'm not even leftist but this political fight for power is destroying our economy.

For the faggot OP: don't pretend you subscribe to ft and assume that we all do.

It's a country now, deal with it. You could have all sorts of cool civil wars for the next 50 years.
Fun.
>>52340861
The only civil war I'd want would be one to restore the Empire. Brazil died in the moment the Republicans came to power.
