TIL: only 4.3% of the Brazilian Government expenses go to investments. 1.6% to education funding, that is nearly half of the administrative costs (3%). 🙀
Nice chart directly from the Federal Government. Unfortunately, it uses GitHub, though. 😅

"The #Bolsonaro family’s recent behaviour has prompted an official from #Brazil’s intelligence agency ABIN, to say that he believes everything they are now doing is being scripted by the #CIA. #Trump’s tariffs certainly appear to be a move straight out of the US #regimechange playbook. After all, destabilizing foreign enemies economies has been a tactic used by the US all over the world for decades."
