Of course!

THAT too under the garb of [FAKE] Democracy! FAKE, because under it's “protection”, they enjoy special privileges & special benefits - besides their ridiculously absurd salaries. NO wonder the politicians & the political parties keep flourishing!

Afterall, THEY make the laws and interpret the legal system in THEIR favor. Exactly, the SAME is true, about the constitution. The “Writing on the wall” which the masses don't or can't see: “Brazil is heading towards legalizing corruption”!
