Most systems won’t change overnight because of the guy on top. What makes you so sure Brazil would have done better with the opposing party candidate as president?

Maybe the problem lies in a supposedly chronically underfunded healthcare system, by a number of previous administrations? This would then reflect, in an electoral democracy, of the citizenry’s misplaced priorities.

Men, this guy fired 2 health ministers during a pandemic. And during a pandemic we don't have a health minister!

Most systems get built over time to be better.

Every crack pot on top harms the structure, until eventually One Guy does break the system.

Now if people want this outcome, its great. If you don;t want this outcome, its not.
