The government threatens to legalize a series of measures approved in the Senate and called tax bombs.
Among them is a plan for debt relief in the agro sector, which was pushed into the same drawer as projects benefiting professional categories or corporations.
They are different things, and all of this has a huge cost to the National Treasury.
Agriculture is facing a perfect storm caused by adverse weather conditions, cost inflation, reduced margins and already high debts.
A different thing is to establish salary floors for certain professional categories, for example, as was approved by the Senate.
The government does not want one for reasons, above all, political.
Agriculture is a sector in which it does not expect to get many votes in the next elections, and the government thinks it would have the votes in the Supreme Court that it does not have in Congress to block this type of measure.
Even more so after the Dean of the Court, , published a text on social media signaling to the government the legal path to contain expenses created by Congress.
Everything is getting tangled up because, at the same time as it “kicks the shins” of the Senate, the Palácio do Planalto wants the senators to approve the reduction of working hours and the end of the work schedule that has already passed through the Chamber, where the president of the house intends to fix the life of his regional oligarchy in the state of Paraíba, supporting President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT).
However, he wants to be re-elected as president of the Chamber, counting on votes from the parliamentary agriculture front – which supports Desenrola for agriculture.
It should be noted that the merits of any of these issues are not up for debate, but only the electoral gain.
