Our impeachment basically automatically occurs whenever the president has support of less than 1/3 of both houses. Anyone in the population can submit the request over basically any administrative violation. The worker's party submitted impeachment accusations to every president since the redemocratization except obviously theirs.

The last impeached president got that thanks to buying a personal use car (and just a fiat elba) with a ghost account related to his campaign treasurer. Not even a fraction of the recent scandal from the worker's party and he was considered not guilty by the supreme court after leaving presidency.

>>74818642
The austerity measures here are different since we can still pay our current debts (the interests at least) as long as the economy is growing or at least stagnant. Our economy is much stronger, we have our own currency and our debt isn't over our GDP for now.

The problem is that the constitution and laws were designed to always increase benefits over time and never scale down. For example health and education investments, salaries, pensions and all kind of worker's rights always increases. Another example for example is that civil servants basically cannot be fired, so you can't reduce the state size until they retire.

Outside of retirement pension (there are people retiring at young as 48 and living until 90 and others getting as much as when they worked or even more), all the others could work when the economy is growing, but with the collapse of almost 10% in 3 years of the GDP the state can't even pay what it's constitutional obliged. Basically what Temer is expected to do is to stop the exponential growth in costs that would make it become as bad as Greece in a decade.
>>
>>74819332
they're the exact same thing with the same policies

>>74819818
>For example health and education investments, salaries, pensions and all kind of worker's rights always increases.

How is that bad? Consumer spending spurs economic growth regardless.

The opposite would mean that somehow cutting wages would be good for the economy. Where do you see that?

During the Great Depression wages fell for obvious reasons.
>>
>>74819818

The actual politic of Jewmer is just ''prioritize banks instead of people''

>there are people retiring at young as 48

False. The minimum age to work signed is 16. You need work at least 35 years to retire.

So the minimum age to retiring is 51. If you work 35 years to the state, it's obvious you have the right to retire.
>>
>>74820095
>How is that bad?
It's bad because now the state can't pay anything, not health, not education and not even all the pension. Not even cleaning service and electricity for some of the largest colleges in the country, which are still in better state than schools. In Rio the justice had to imprison a bank manager to force the bank tp transfer from the state accounts against their will to pay late retirement.

>During the Great Depression wages fell for obvious reasons.
We are in a recession larger than during 1929 and wages are rising for many groups. The ones that the inflation is eating usually go on frequent strikes to achieve the same.

>>74820661
Isn't 48 for women?
>>
>>74819389
You know what else affects quality of life?
Economic meltdown, rampant inflation and very expensive credit.

The budget is terrible, and it can't go on like this, our credit rating has already dropped and would just keep falling further, increasing interest.
Before it spirals off control, it has to be contained. Public bodies need to show themselves able to balance their expenditures and interest payments.

You can do that by printing more money, which can work somewhat, like what the US did in the last couple decades, or not at all, like all cases of superinflation, like what's happening in Venezuela right now.
You can also increase revenue. The economy won't expandd because if the public budget is in such situation, no domestic or foreign investor will invest their money. So you need to raise taxes, which makes me country less attractive for investors, and foreign countries are very happy to create tax exemptions to bring those business to them. It's what happened in Greece, they greatly increased taxes, and many companies "moved" to Bulgaria. Their operations didn't change at all, but thanks to Bulgaria's lower taxes, many registered there.

The last option is decreasing expenditures, that is, austerity. Many don't like that because a big part of the population depends on the government, either directly or indirectly.
Costs must be cut all around, no more public works, expansions of government insitutions, tax cuts for consumption, etc.
This affects the economy because now it lost it's biggest spender, the government. A big slowdowm follows, recession is a real possibility. Unemployment might also increase.
The economy will only recover after investors feel confident to start business again. This confidence comes from cheap credit, which is only possible if the public insitutions are able to honor their debts and achieve good ratings.

First problem: Brazil is a federation and states can't print money, only the union.
Second and more important: print money -> money devalue -> inflation -> wages, pensions and other benefits are indexed by inflation -> costs raises together -> needs to print more money

>call me when unemployment hits 25% then you can talk.
January:7.6%, February: 8.2%, March: 9.5%, April: 10,9%
It's getting there. That's only considering people actively looking for jobs and not recently fired from stable jobs, currently 25% of the population is on welfare, usually meaning getting less than the minimum wage (or having tons of children in the family).

And welfare and an extremely bloated public sector have nothing to do with it.
Funny that you excuse the Greek government for taking loans that they won't pay the interest, but won't excuse the banks that took the same kind of loans from the Greeks.

Yes. You can't have a demand that doesn't exist, you can't just write that your employees are rich and so it shall happen.

And some US states are in deep trouble with their debts. Same as here, they also incur debt and then can't pay the interest, but they can't devalue the currency, like the federal government does.

Of fucking course, it's the US, the largest economy in the world. Just proves what I'm saying, countries which are able to responsably pay their interest rates have much cheaper credit, therefore can keep increasing the debt and still be able to pay interest.
If the US somehow becomes unable to pay interest in time, you will see more and devaluation. If it keeps going, the same thing that happens to all other economies can and will happen to the US.

But of course, the US will be the last country in the world for that to happen, because it can tax the US economy, the largest in the world. It also controls the availability of US dollars, the most liquid currency.

>why should Greek citizens have to suffer [...]
Because they voted those politicians in? Because they keep voting for them? Because no investor should be forced to offer credit to Greece just to keep their unsustainable economy afloat?

>Portugal still has a stagnant economy [...]
Good for them. Stagnant is much better than recession.
The population isn't growing, to expect that all economies will develop forever at a fast pace is utter madness, and what got the world economy on this mess in the first place.
Growth will only come with increases in production, not through cheap credit funding consumption of foreign products.

>According to Roche's research, hyperinflation's root cause is actually severe economic circumstances which resulted in an increased money supply. These include: a collapse in production, government corruption, loss of a war, regime changes, and ceding of monetary sovereignty. "While government debts and deficit spending can exacerbate a hyperinflation, they have not generally been the cause of hyperinflation but rather the result of other political and economic events," Roche said.

A government can always pay it's debts and the money supply can always be controlled by the government acting counter cyclically

Not when you fucking have to payback in a foreign currency and 99.9% of the loans are made in a foreign currency since no one takes anything but Euros and Dollars and in case of the EU in a currency whose value can't be controlled

Hyperinflation here once in part was caused by high inflation rates , foreigners and traitors used to borrow money from outside and give massive amounts of loans at a higher interest rates than they took. Since there was a shortage of foreing currency as the government had to pay back the debt people took those loans, this ended up emptying the central banks reserves which led to hyperinflation
Back then we had a relatively self suificient national industry and energy supper plus but still stuff had to be imported

Everything is valued in dollars internationally, the only country that gets away scott free is the US cause they can manipulate the dollar

That just explains why a country would print so much to the point of causing hyoerinflation. Of course it's some extreme measure like those mentioned, if the country has need of such an amount of issuing, it's in an extreme situation.

>by the government acting counter cyclically
And that can never happen because when the conomy is in a boom socialists tend to get ellected, who then go on to increase both taxes and expenditure in expecting the boom to last forever.
It's what happened here, there was a large increase in revenue during our boom, thanks to high commodith prices, attractive economy for investing, oil reserve founds.
But, it accompannied huge increases in expenses. The public sector increased in size, many costly tax breaks for consumer items, large public works.
And now that the economy cooled down, we can't keep going with these expenses. We can't even dream of cutting taxes, the deficit is already too high.

The solution was to have started decades ago, thinking about the future. Now we suffer the consequences, we can't afford to earn less, so the next best thing is to spend less.
And hopefully we will go through the next boom already expecting it to end.

>Just don't pay them!
That's what austerity is, expect it has the decency of telling employees they're now out of a job, instead of delaying their salaries.

We can't do that. We're running on a serious deficit, our debt and interest is increasing too quickly.

>>74826985
We don't have the political capacity to increase taxes, all attempts by the government to probe possible increade faced stiff opposition from the population, business and politicians.
Everyone is tired of our high taxes, we pay some of the highest in the world and see it being squandered.
Pretty much everyone wants the government to spend taxes better instead of wasting it on bloat and corruption. We can't be bled even more to pay for a barely functional government.

Our deficit is damn serious for us because we aren't the US, we don't control the world's economy.
Our federal govermment's credit rating has already dropped on all rating agencies, if it kept going like that, we wouldn't be able to borrow money anymore.
We would have to choose either stop paying salaries and collapse, or inflate our currency through printing. As I said, higher taxes aren't an option, Brazil has always run by being squeezed dry.

A nation can, and does run out of money. It's what happens in hyperinflation, you could pick all the money ever issued, and wouldn't be able to exchange it for a dollar.

Besides, international companies have no country, countries are constantly in competition to attract capital investment and austere countries win. Plus the amount of opportunities capital imports bring to local wealth generators are what's shooting Ireland's economy through the roof.

>and they still get all the benefits from being in the EU like access to cheap goods and the Euro

Free trade is beneficial of course, the Euro itself as a currency is not really that big of a deal, it's just less shitty than the US dollar at the moment, but the devaluation against gold shows it's doing poorly. Ireland could probably have a better currency, like Switzerland, if they wanted.

Our austerity failed but at least now our deficit is much smaller than it was 5-10 years ago.

It failed because our retarded governments decided to fuck the private sector up. Meanwhile , the public sector was left unharmed because public workers are their voterbase.

Brazil should open up its markets, reduce taxation and cut spending if they want to succeed, aka do the complete opposite of what we did.
