Renan Santos
1:55
I say this not because, as a political leader, it's my role.
Renan Santos
2:01
But because, in a much more humble way, I don't have a tenth of your brilliance.

Renan Santos

I was a supplier of automotive systems through my father.

I was a supplier for infrastructure battery works in the area of doors and windows in Brazil.
Renan Santos
2:18
And all those problems ended up occurring.
Renan Santos
2:21
And they make everything much more expensive, everything slow and very risky.
Renan Santos
2:24
It's very difficult to work in a country like that.
Renan Santos
2:27
And if we don't change this dynamic, it'll be more worthwhile for you to realize your dream with the ideas you created in another country.
Renan Santos
2:33
Because at some point you'll get tired and you'll give up.
Renan Santos
2:36
And your giving up isn't wrong, because you can't waste the talent that was given to you by your parents, by God, call it what you want.
Renan Santos
2:43
You can't waste it, because your talent is a good for humanity.
Renan Santos
2:46

Renan Santos
3:05
As long as a guy like you, as long as young people who work in programming and engineering, have difficulty becoming very, very rich doing what they know how to do, while a bum of a prosecutor who earns 150k a month, a judge who earns 300k a month, while a piece-of-shit politician who takes part in a corruption scandal and then flies around in a little private jet, like the party president does — if that situation were fine, this country would be shit.
