Brazil's truck drivers on strike

samedi 2 juin 2018 à 02:00

Brazil's truck drivers are on strike against increases in the price of fuel.

The price of fuel must increase so society will use less of it. But I suspect that some details of the way the government imposed this put the burden on individual drivers rather than on companies and rich people that can cope with it. For instance, if drivers have to pay for fuel and what they can charge has not increased, the whole burden falls on them. There is no justice in that.
