Then there were more improductive people, i.e., children, than people paying taxes. Lula has more tax payers since he is ruling during demographic window time.

Give you an example: Once children leave home, standard of living go up.

My father had seven kids. His 7 offspring, plus spouses, all put together, had 11 kids in total. Dramatic drop in reproduction.

That was the result of urbanization.

My sister had three kids. They worked hard only to bring them up. Once they finished school and got jobs, their standard of living skyrockted.

They are mid-20s to late 20s, none married, all living in the same house. All saving money. All pursuing further education.

All of them have good teeth.
