Marina Helena stated that Lula was the favorite of part of the Brazilian elite and said that government spending raised interest rates and transferred wealth from taxpayers to rentiers. According to her, interventionist and state-driven policies allowed entrepreneurs willing to violate the Penal Code to ally with the government, preserve their fortunes, and protect themselves from competition. Helena said that this elite accepted, in exchange, a bigger state, higher taxes, slower growth, and the maintenance of dependence of the poorest on the government. She claimed that workers, entrepreneurs, and freelancers threatened this structure and that, in a country with lower taxes, spending, and interest rates, competition could displace the current privileged. She also mentioned that this group was realizing it was right-wing and that it was the majority. In the end, she advocated for voting for Flávio Bolsonaro, number 22, on October 25. #Lula #economia #direita (translated)
