Kim Kataguiri: Now, they didn't have the courage to do that; there was pressure from the corporation, one of the most powerful in Brazil, which is the Association of Judges, the Association of Prosecutors, and then they create a working group to enable the court to... add perks — there is no need to enable anything, it's very simple: if someone received above, cut it, period.
Kim Kataguiri: It doesn't matter what the nature of the payment is.
Now, they didn't have the courage to do that and in our country — a ready-made joke, a country of scorn and blatant disrespect for the taxpayer — a working group of judges to confront super salaries earns about 330,000 reais in a single month.
Kim Kataguiri: Until we have a National Congress with the courage to end this racket, there's no STF (Supreme Federal Tribunal) that will solve it, no CNJ (National Council of Justice) that will solve it.
