Tomorrow those that still living in Brazil have got to vote and choose the mayor to its cities. I living in Sao Paulo and could be a pleasure to enforcing the value my citizenship and choose whom I consider as the best politician to conduct one of most important and complex social clusters of world. But there is no option. Sao Paulo is the fourth biggest city within the five ones identifying as the great possibilities to business and to the sustainable development. With about 12M of inhabitants this city has big challenges by the next fifty years. As someone that worked in important task force to buy the best services and products with good prices for this city, I saw how difficult is give the end to the mafia system on Sao Paulo City Hall.
The suppliers finance the politicians just to ensure the future of corruption scheme and stabilizing the prices over the higher level global prices and gain with extraordinary profit the bidding contracts. In another hand, when some due diligence is made to identify the beneficial owners of those companies that own the bidding contracts, a big surprise is reveals: The owners are the same politicians that managing the city as secretary and sometimes the own mayor in many cases. They use a lot of front company to hide its faces through who is known as “XY Participações Ltda” that has a percentage of many others companies that in the end of chain is the company that has the millionaire bidding contracts.
All day, I was wandering, but I ended up looking by nothing on the online newspaper when I found an interesting picture (above) of the ministers of Brazilian Supreme Court Joaquim Barbosa and Ricardo Lewandowski, both judging the scheme of corruption called 'Mensalão", – the first one as adjudicator and the second as proof reader – that answered me what hell situation we are living in Brazil. In the same time, I remembered that today I bought the book Dracula wrote by Bram Stoker and there was no another philosophical thinking to explaining this catastrophic situation beyond to associate as satire the Brazilian's ethic context with literal universe of Count Dracula and compare him with Lewandowiski and defenders of corruption. And I wrote then:
There couldn't be a better moment to read Dracula in special edition in leather cover and printed in China, of course. "Joaquim, I will drink your noble black blood !" Said the Count Dracula aka Lewandowski.
