It ' s a better system than what we currently have . If you think they ' re gonna remove bureaucracy and cut government jobs while having free reign over the budget , you ' re gonna be disappointed . With the cap in place , it puts them in a place where the budget for their bureaucracy and shenanigans is competing with the money for education and health . This means they have a huge amount of pressure to align their spending with what the population needs , because they can ' t just mask it under a hey , there will be more money in the future , so we ' re gonna increase funding for X . It forces them into a place where they have to prioritize , and that , my friend , exposes the entire machine . If they want to increase something for their own benefit , they will either have to cut something that also benefits them , or something that benefits the population . Good luck making that look good . A lot of brazilians think it ' s a good thing because it actually puts a stop to the stupid amount of government spending that happens nowadays . I suppose this is going the opposite direction of the last president , but that ' s natural seeing as Brazil ' s leftwing doesn ' t have a great notion of economics and apparently thinks the government has unlimited money to burn . And yes , it ' s for 20 years , but the text also includes that the law can be revised after 10 years . If the country is in a better place
