    “From November 2015 to October 2016, the country registered a net loss of 1.5 million jobs.”

    Dilma was kicked out in August 2016...after 6 years of gross mismanagement and corruption...Temer took over in August 2016....unemployment figures already starting to recede...still any doubt as to who is to blame for the mess in Brazil ?
    Didn't think so.

    Hi, Jack!

    Blaming is very easy. What to do, to overcome the problem is the toughest part!

    With the corrupt/crooks continuing to be active in politics; the situation is most likely to worsen before - if at all - gets better.

    They are about to succeed in legalizing corruption. So what else are your expectations?

    @:o))
    You're right, “blaming” IS easy, especially when you know who the responsible party is...

    Despite the fact that Congress is doing its damndest to pass laws to protect the corrupt from past crimes, I still have hope that “someone” (Temer ? Carmen Lúcia ?) decides to take a stand against all this filth ....It is clear what 'should' be done, now that the PEC 2421 (55) has been approved......such as the reform of the social security system, the political and the tax systems....Brazil needs to increase productivity and clean out the corruption...
    Without it, Brazil will slip back into its old habits ....
