If you dislike the CLT and whatever happens with labour laws in Brazil right now I'm completely open to hear you about a reform but don't talk out of your ass like all labour laws are problematic, they are the core foundation on removing employer abuse as almost any employer is in a much more powerful standing than any single employee.

Stop being a Brazilian advocating for liberalism because you like to use the US as a role model... I know too many of you back there and most are completely ignorant to the problems that arises from that, you don't have a clue what you are talking about.

I don't like to use the US as a role model, why do you think that? Also, how do you know I am a brazilian?

I could spend a lot of time here elaborating a reform proposal, but that would be pointless, right? You don't have the power to do the reform even if you get convinced.

It is better to just come here and state the obvious, hoping that other commenters may be interested in learning some basic economics -- not of Keynes variety, which is a separate discipline -- and accept that labour laws are mostly bad.

After we get more people convinced of it we can elaborate a politically feasible reform.
