Brazil feels like having finally waken up from a long enduring nightmare. Enough with the truth-twisting official speeches, just as delirious as the theory of a developing coup d’état raised by an ailing regime in despair.
A country in trance had marginally reelected a president based on lies and fraud that soon started coming afloat, leading to an administrative standstill that magnified an economic crisis induced by her very erratic policies. The rule of law and the voice from the streets have ultimately triggered her downfall. That is the plain truth.
The first appointments of the recent interim government seem to have mercifully reinstated some logic to the scenario. Those now nominated may not be flawless, but they do have a public service record to their favor. The new cabinet points to a more business friendly attitude and that is good enough for a country in need to get back on track.
There will surely be no easy path, but the general mood has already shifted overnight. It is time for a little goodwill and patience, for sour measures are just at the corner for Brazilian taxpayers. Yet, if remedy is inevitable, let's start the treatment right away and make it the least painful possible.
For those who might think this is a biased account from inside out, here is an invitation to further look into it for yourselves. The giant lives on and better times will inevitably come. For some of the ultimate acute vision, the glass is definitely half full.
