Even when it doesn't deliver results, the State continues to grow — as if it were rewarded for its own inefficiency.
In recent years, Brazilian citizens have been living with a disturbing paradox: the more inefficient the government appears, the more it grows. Management crises, endless lines, collapsing public services—all of this serves, in Brazil, as justification for creating new structures, new positions and new expenses.
The official explanation? “More investment is needed.”
The truth? It's just more institutionalized bureaucracy.
The State that fails and rewards itself
One ministry doesn't solve the problem? Create another.
Is a secretary holding everything back? Promote the manager.
Is the INSS waiting list doubling? Appoint another commissioner.
This is how the logic of those who does not have to deal with the costs of one's own decisions.
In the private sector, the rule is clear: if you don't deliver, you lose the customer.
In the public sector, if you don't deliver, you get a bigger budget the following year.
The politics of appearance: structure over results
Brazil today has more than 600,000 commissioned positions in all spheres, a state structure worthy of a superpower — but with the service of a bankrupt republic.
Leaking hospitals, schools with teacher shortages, overworked staff. And, at the same time, secretariats with soap opera names and directorates with undefined functions.
The truth is simple: the growth of the public sector has nothing to do with the well-being of the population—it has to do with maintaining power, favors, and privileges.
🎯 When the machine is the end, not the means
The State should be a means of guaranteeing justice, security, and freedom. But in Brazil, it has become a end in itself — an autonomous organism that grows, reproduces, and protects itself, even when it fails.
And who pays the bill?
You, who work outside the bubble.
You, who need public service — but not public politicking.
📢 It's not enough to cut spending — we need to eliminate the logic of government rewards for inefficiency.
Read, share and help dismantle this machine.
