Many countries have their national giants, those who bring wealth and spread opportunity and prosperity wherever they set their feet. In Brazil, the Workers’ Party had a vision of expansive business conglomerates that would conquer the world. The real intention, however, had always been to divert public money to their party's coffers and into the pockets of politicians and the people connected to them.

damage to numerous business owners, workers and – ultimately –

to the country’s taxpayers.
