Guilherme Cezar Coelho, an economist and the founder of República.org, a think tank advocating for public service reforms, highlights that the issue of 'super salaries' – excessively high public sector wages – will be a focal point in this year's elections. He attributes this heightened awareness and concern to growing public pressure, which he believes will help advance discussions on the topic. Coelho argues that such discussions are vital, especially as the Congress remains largely unresponsive to the issue due to the influence of lobbyists representing privileged groups within the public sector. These factions, he claims, have effectively captured the legislative body, making substantive reform difficult.
