I can't speak to Brasil tax policy but 'self employed' has
grown more than 'employees' under very different (some might
say diametrically different) administrations:

 
"Self employed" here means you work for a firm but have no
benefits at all. You have to pay your retirement, health costs, food,
eventual injuries etc. And you can be fired at any time.
Also, you don't have the right to a minimum wage. The road
sweepers in our town are "self employed" and make around 110 dollars a
month. That was illegal before the 2015-2026 coup.
The minimum wage currently is US$ 280 a month for a 44 hour
week.

Paywall. ~US$ 200 and I had to give credit card details....
Maybe it's a Brazilian thing or else you have a subscription.

Very similar to the US.

Exports at the end of Bolsonaro's regime were practically the
same as before the coup. It was a "lost" 7 years.
2023 was the first year of recovery. Looks like 2024 will be
even better.
Brazil was the 7th largest economy in the World prior to the
coup. It slid to 12th. Can't blame COVID because all countries had
COVID.
 
If you look at Argentina's data and compare it with this
#FAKE_NEWS article:

So it appears that Brasil is functioning and growing, so
perhaps a crappy tax code is not yet at a crisis. Again I
don't know that.

 
Brazil is growing, but very slowly. The Central Bank was
"privatized" by Bolsonaro and the Federal Government has to pay over
6% interest(over inflation) on the National Debt Bolsonaro left
behind. Around 95% of our GNP.
But life is better, unemployment is down, wages increased and
our poverty is diminishing.
I can't see your links under this OS, it's too hardened. I
check them out on Linux tomorrow.

 
Done...

The GDP barely rose at all from 2020 to the present

Just this year, under Lula, the GNP rose over 3%. Lula only became
President in 2023, so you can hardly blame 2020 on him....

We are suffering something akin to the USA, trying to recover from the
mistakes made by the previous administration. It'll take decades.

and at this same time excess spending and wild eyed printing of money caused an inflation rate of nearly 20%.

And inflation is the lowest since the right wing coup. Unemplyment is
at a record low too.

This difference in growth of GDP and inflation ended up with about a effective loss of GDP of 15%.

I think sms's post clarified that there is no such thing as a
"turbo cancer".

I understand if all of the things that have been happening since the election fraud that put the Democrats
in charge

Funny, that's the same argument Bolsoaro used here. Every
single inquiry showed he lied. He just wanted to be dictator. Well,
he's waiting trial ATM.

is scaring people so that they want to deny it. But this is a discussion and we have
to at least try and be honest.

In Brazil you can vote for extreme right, far right, right or
center. There are no left wing candidates for presidency.
In the US you don't even have center ... it's just extreme
right( borderline Nazi/fascist) and moderate right.
I take it you are one of the Nazi supporters.
