A Call to Economic Rationality in Brazil

In a couple of weeks Brazilians will go to the polls in the last round of voting in the presidential elections.

Two academic colleagues have written an economic manisfesto trying to deconstruct some of the fallacious arguments being used by the government during the campaign. It has been subscribed by many academic including myself.

The opposition hasn't been this close to winning an election since 1998. Let's hope they do for the sake of the country.

You can read it here (it's in Portuguese) and also the list of academics that have undersigned it:
