Samara Martins: Who said that poor people don't know how to think about the economy?
Samara Martins: They say things like, 'but poor people don't know what the Selic rate is, don't know what this or that is,' but they manage a tiny household budget to keep a family, they have to be creative to figure out how to make the month's income.
So, our people are extremely capable and competent and are not called upon to govern in this country.
Samara Martins: Even though it's called a democracy, which would mean the people in power.
Samara Martins: The people are not in power, because we are economically directed by this financial elite.
