About: increase taxation on trade

What is at stake behind the big US tariff hike is that entire sectors could go bankrupt. This is not idle chatter. It's the actual bill that doesn't add up: with a 25% tariff increase, which could reach 37.5% when combined with other surtaxes under consideration, Brazilian industry, agribusiness and digital services lose competitiveness overnight. A closed factory means people on the street. An indebted producer is an entire town suffocated. The saddest thing is, Lula doesn't have the capacity to engage in dialogue and the other candidate is worried about the election, not about Brazil. Polarization is becoming very costly for families and for the country! 🇧🇷
