more than 20 sanitation services concessions to the private sector

Brazilian here: basic services should NEVER be privatized. While the state of sanitation is, indeed, sad, creating space for private monopolies people can't escape is never a good solution.

It's always better to force the government-owned sanitation companies to meet specific service-level and universality goals and use that to feed the budget that needs congressional approval.

As if you can force these communists to do anything. Some justice minister just publicized his solution to the wave of school shootings that has hit us recently: force social media corporations to come up with solutions instead of him. Why the hell do we have to pay taxes to these idiots?

Always justifying the perspective of increased expenses under the argument of the need for greater redistribution of resources

It's a communist judiciary dictatorship. I don't know why they even bother "justifying" anything.
