That has been the bane of brazil for decades, every politician, at every level, undoes or stops whatever the previous politician was doing so there's absolutely no guarantee what you're doing today will still work tomorrow.

Its a terrible state and situation to invest in a business doesn't benefit anyone. My hometown had a large cultural center built by the mayor, he couldn't run for reelection again, new mayor is elected, completely ignores the whole thing was built and lets it rot. Everything is only done for an election cycle, the next cycle could bring something else entirely.

Its terrible to live in a place like this, Americans have no idea how bad this is going to be for the country.

For decades one political party has fomented this by pushing disdain for intellectuals and experts and the effectiveness of government itself.
