Vol. 47 No. 139 (2023): Saúde em Debate

The editorial of the last regular issue of ‘Saúde em Debate’ from 2023, ‘Tax reform and health. After all, what do we pay taxes for and who do they serve?’, is signed by Francisco Funcia and José Noronha, who conclude at the end of the manuscript: “[...] it is necessary to forcefully undo the myth that there is no money to finance public policies and ensure constitutional ties to Health and Education. In addition, face the brutal regressiveness of our tax system to, in fact, reduce our cruel inequalities. For this, it is necessary to mobilize society, activate social participation, and increase the various mechanisms of political pressure to, after reconstruction, build a more just and supportive Brazil”.
