Comings and goings surrounding the increase in the tax on financial transactions (IOF) and pension reform proposal revealed an internal dispute in the team of President Jair Bolsonaro during the first week of his administration. Onyx Lorenzoni, head of the civil household, and Paulo Guedes, Minister of Economy, on the other hand. The first is the captain of the team and the second has the key to the safe.
The idea of increasing the IOF to compensate for the loss of income by extending incentives to the northern and northeastern regions – announced yesterday by Bolsonaro and abandoned a few hours later the Special secretary of the Internal Revenue Service, Marcos Cintra, even stood up for a few hours.

In the palace of Plbadto, there are those who attribute the news of the increase of the FIO to the chief minister of the general secretariat of the presidency, Gustavo Bebianno, who would make a kind of "double" with Guedes. Behind the scenes, Onyx and Bebianno contest the protagonism in the political articulations.
It is not today that the head of the Civil House is strangely foreign to that of the economy. Onyx was very upset in recent days to learn that Guedes had persuaded PSL Bolsonaro to support the bid for re-election of mayor Rodrigo Maia (DEM-RJ).
In the diagnosis of the Minister of the Economy, the reinstatement of Maia It is fundamental for the government to have more peace in Congress and approve, for example, the reform of social security. Bebianno has the same badessment of Guedes and even thinks that some changes in the rules of retirement could have gone through Congress if the guarantee to Maia had been announced before.
Despite being DEM, Onyx resisted to support Maia. He was even more irritated to know that the approach between the PSL and the mayor had been made by Guedes. MPs elected by the PSL then announced that they had opted for this agreement, otherwise the Bolsonaro party would be isolated, without seats in the strategic committees of the House, such as Constitution and Justice and Finance and budget.
Onyx was convinced even after members of the new parliamentary bureau of the Civil Chamber – composed of non-reelected deputies – declared that "Maia was" ignored "by the PSL, this would pose many voting problems of interest to the Plbadto
The Minister of the Civil House has also been the protagonist of the information considered disjointed about the pension reform project.The shuttle does not like the technical team preparing the text because, in the evaluation of these advisers, uncertainties surround the strategy of the proposal that will be presented after the resumption of the work of the new Congress in February.
At the first ministerial meeting of the new government, yesterday the day before yesterday, Guedes proposed a more severe reform pensions, with a higher minimum age for retirement.Bolsonaro did not agree and asked the ministers to always pr Senter two lines & # 39;. Action President defends a minimum age of 57 for women and 62 for men.
Maia thinks Guedes is right. The mayor said yesterday that the reduction of the minimum age compared to the proposal of the government of Michel Temer "kills" the rule of transition. Temer proposed to men to retire at age 65 and to women, 62.
The interview given by Bolsonaro to the SBT, commenting on points not yet defined in the proposal, also worried the market, who saw the risk of seeing the reform come to an end
