Don't think he's being dishonest. Vargas was indeed a fascist, and I don't see what our being shamefully late to abolish slavery has to do with our labor laws being good or bad.
- mateus1 6y agoThis is barking at the wrong tree. Brazil has tons of structural economic problems since its inception ever since the Portuguese came over. Saying the labor laws are to blame is completely wrong.
- pcstl 6y agoThey don't help either. Most of our labor laws are there for middle-class people to look at them and think "wow, aren't our labor laws great?" while most actual lower-class people can't get jobs that actually follow the labor laws because most people who employ them aren't able to both pay the bills and deal with all the financial obligations and regulatory uncertainty our labor laws create.
