This, by far, is the most important video of my life.
Woe to you if you don't watch until the end, because I'm going to talk about it, exactly.
The 6x1 schedule.
- Neutral
About: end six-for-one work schedule without salary reduction
First of all, I never said I was against ending the 6x1 schedule.
I've already said that in several interviews, actually.
About: end six-for-one work schedule without salary reduction
The point about the 6x1 schedule is that I'm not opposed to ending it.
About: end six-for-one work schedule without salary reduction
Even because the worker has to have time for health, for leisure, to take care of their family, to have time for faith, to be able to go to church.
- Against
About: debate ending the 6x1 shift technically (no populism)
Now, my point has always been to discuss this seriously and not populistically, like the left is doing.
But, Nicolas, could it be a populist measure and am I being deceived?
Could it?
Answer me then just two questions.
- Against
About: print money to finance an increase in the minimum wage
So why don't we raise the minimum wage to 5,000 reais and print money to give it to those who need it?
If you couldn't answer those questions or said 'yes, let's do it', congratulations, you're being deceived.
About: end six-for-one work schedule without salary reduction
The point here is that precisely the PT, which has been in power for almost 20 years, hasn't ended the 6x1 schedule to this day.
And now, magically, in an election year... It discovered the worker and is worried about you.
Honestly, folks, after the picanha you can't fall for this stuff anymore.
See what's happening.
The discussion here, my friend, isn't only about the schedule.
It's about wages, it's about everything around it.
Do you know why?
About: reduce State spending and the tax burden
Because the PT government created this problem, fed this problem, wants to profit politically from this problem and now appears as the solution.
Because there's no point changing the schedule if you're at a bus stop and your phone got stolen.
Because then your salary will be worth less, because you'll have to buy another phone or keep paying for the one that was stolen.
Your salary goes away when you get to the supermarket and prices are sky-high because of inflation.
Your salary goes down the drain when you drive down a pothole-filled street and then your car, your truck has a problem and you have to take it to the mechanic.
And there goes your salary, once again.
Or when your child is getting sick and where are you going to take them?
Of course, to a private hospital, because otherwise you can't get care.
And once again your salary goes down the drain.
- Neutral
About: prioritize public policies aimed at reducing poverty and improving public services
So you see that the State doesn't give you health, education, security, infrastructure.
About: reduce the tax burden on workers
It raises taxes on the products and services you consume.
And now the left comes saying that Brazil's problem is reduced to the 6x1 schedule and that all problems are solved.
No!
About: reduce State spending
The problem is having an extremely expensive State that spends billions, for example, on international travel.
About: reduce the tax burden on workers
The problem is you having the highest tax burden in the last 15 years and not seeing that money return to you.
Brazil, for the 14th consecutive time, ranked last among countries that give returns to the population, while being the one that charges and takes the most from you.
Have you never asked yourself why so many Brazilians leave here and go to another country to work an even worse schedule, but accept it because, after all, they see their money go further?
After all, their phone won't be stolen, they'll have quality healthcare, good education for their children.
Then they'll take their salary and say, 'oh damn, I don't need to spend on all that, because the State is already giving it to me.'
So they buy more, they live better, they can see their money stretching.
