"The result is disappointing, and the way we played makes it even more painful. It became an open match, and that is somewhat embarrassing given our qualities. We never really got into the game. We also had almost no chances. Fortunately, we have another match on Thursday. We need to make this right." #Eredivisie #PSV #Feyenoord (translated)

Dandi from Consignado wrote that the 1988 Constitution expanded the electorate by millions of people but did not hold accountable, in his assessment, the elites who benefited from the regimes between 1930 and 1980. According to him, FHC and Lula I postponed the problem by making the economy more efficient and resorting to indirect redistribution, while Lula II postponed it with economic growth. The author stated that misguided decisions from Dilma I were followed by unsuccessful attempts from Dilma II and Michel Temer to manage the situation. He also mentioned that Bolsonaro began to transfer costs to the poorest and that Lula tried to do so with the wealthiest, but none of the initiatives succeeded because divided elites remained indecisive. Dandi stated that the fiscal problem and stagnation of productivity could no longer be postponed. As alternatives, he presented the opening of the economy, microeconomic reforms, a significant increase in taxation of the wealthiest, the end of inefficient sectoral policies, and a restrictive environmental agenda—measures that, according to him, would benefit the poorest and burden the richest. The other option, he wrote, would be to deeply cut social spending, allow the expansion of the agricultural frontier without correcting the inefficiencies of agribusiness, maintain industrial policy, and let inflation reduce the value of debt. He concluded that postponing this choice would no longer be possible without social conflict or the continuation of malaise. #Economia #Política #JustiçaSocial (translated)

JH Fonseca wrote that Flávio should explore, in a Globo debate, topics such as violence, supermarket prices, interest rates, and taxes. He suggested that he present examples and solutions for public security and explain how, in his view, Lula's spending affected the daily lives of families. He also recommended that Flávio characterize Lula as radical and assert that he had deceived centrist voters in 2022. As an argument, he suggested mentioning appointments to the Supreme Federal Court and promising names with impeccable curricula in the judiciary. He further defended proposing that the Bolsa Família and its adjustments be included in the Constitution. Regarding sanitation, Fonseca stated that in 2002, before the PT took office, India and Iraq were far behind Brazil, but both had surpassed the country in the World Bank rankings, despite Iraq having gone through a war. In education, he recommended mentioning that Brazil continued to rank among the lowest in PISA and accusing the PT of having abandoned the issue, in addition to presenting concrete proposals. Concerning corruption, Fonseca suggested provoking Lula to lose his patience and, in the face of attacks, respond quickly and return to discussing proposals and change. He also advised Flávio not to waste time with "grandstanding." #Lula #DebatePolítico #Brasil (translated)
