“We buy everything. It’s R$50 there, R$30, R$40. It seems like it’s nothing. But, when it comes to the end of the month, the sum of that amount of little things becomes big. And we start to get angry. ‘I worked all month, I received my salary and there’s nothing left’. So who are you cursing at? The government.”
Blaming the population for a problem is the mark of foolish governments. And he is not dizzy because family debt has increased. What leads him to blame the people is the polls. According to Atlas/Bloomberg, the government’s disapproval reached 54% and, in addition, a simulation of the second round of the election showed it technically tied with . The president has 46.6% of voting intentions and Bolsonaro 2 had 47.6%. Unlike his father, who took advantage of any opportunity to campaign, his son is playing at a standstill. He did not present a government plan and has little opinion on the relevant issues of national life. In a way, it feeds on voters’ bad mood with the government’s performance.
Lula 3.0 completed three years of government without setting a milestone. The queue risks reaching the mark of 3 million victims before October. Despite the Pé-de-Meia program, enrollment of young people in secondary education shrank by 6.3%.
It could be that the bad mood has to do with tiredness, with scandals that didn’t come from the government, with bad marketing or even with high heels.
An example of the dangers of high heels came from the Minister of Social Security, Wolney Queiroz, and the president of the INSS, Gilberto Waller Junior. Despite the government’s promises and the number of victims increasing, Queiroz maintained that the insured must be attended to “in the shortest possible time”. The doctor missed an opportunity to explain why three years of promises bogged down.
Planalto strategists were surprised by the erosion of Lula’s popularity downstairs. It couldn’t be any other way, retirees were robbed and policyholders can’t get care. Waller Junior offered a number that could explain the ruin: in 2022 (Bolsonaro government) the INSS had 36 thousand employees and in 2025 (Lula government), this number fell to 18 thousand. The president of the INSS behaves like an analyst who has nothing to do with government management.
The minister asked for “good advertising” of Social Security. Whoever knows how this can be done wins a weekend in Tehran.
Lulinha
April is coming and Fábio Luís Lula da Silva, the , defends himself with silence. That’s all the opposition needs.
A month ago he entered the INSS CPI frying pan and it is now understood that he traveled with Careca to Portugal to prospect for a business. Now it is known that he provided consultancy services to Fictor, thrown into the frying pan of the Master gang and other bad things.
While the INSS Careca business in Portugal was essentially private, at Fictor Lulinha it was linked to businessman Luiz Rubini, a former partner of the company, who became part of the Council for Sustainable Economic Social Development, the Conselhão. This plenary has a long name and zero responsibilities. It just decorates the CVs of its members.
Planalto still has time to deactivate this time bomb, set to explode during the election campaign.
Lula has dozens of relatives and, since Marshal Deodoro got into trouble with his family, he was one of the presidents who least mixed his family with state business.
