Brazil's President Michel Temer has sought to reassure foreign trade partners that the corruption scandal engulfing the country's meat industry does not mean its products are unsafe.
Brazil is the world's largest red meat exporting country, and now its top packaging meat company is accused of having sold rotten products for years. Brazil’s constitution is in tatters and needs to be drastically reformed. The heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches should all be elected in alternating years, and 1/4 of all MPs should face election each year. The President should serve a single 5-year term with no right to run for 6 years afterwards. In addition, elections should be free of charge to all candidates.
