Facing headwinds, Dilma changes course Source:

     The government announces plans to privatise infrastructure, and disappoints striking bureaucrats. In recent years Brazil's government has been able to avoid tough spending choices. Faster economic growth and falling tax evasion have translated into steadily rising revenues, allowing the federal government to hire more workers and pay them more, as well as to boost pensions and social transfers. But the fat times are over. In 2011 economic growth was only 2.7%; this year 2% looks optimistic. Tax revenues are rising only a little faster than inflation. The government can no longer satisfy everyone.

     The noisiest demands come from public-sector workers. Teachers at federal universities have been on strike for three months; they have recently been joined by federal police, tax offi cials and staff at some regulatory agencies. The strikers'demands would swell the government's salary bill by up to 50%; inflation is running at 5.2%.
