He does at least have some policies to help poor people but he has been giving a lot of concessions to capital indeed. Not that it's easy to go against them considering we have the most right leaning congress ever, but he could at least try to get people on the streets in support of good policies and see what can be done but he hasn't done anything of the like.

I hope I can vote for him in the second round next election though because I really doubt there will be anyone even remotelly close to be as good as him. lol

We wish...

he has illusions that capitalism can deliver that

Makes him more dangerous, no? Incorrect philosophical framework, leading to incorrect decisions, regardless of the nobility of intentions

I put the whole speech through DeepL and found the second part of the speech to be the interesting part:

Well, I'd like to tell you this: my ministers have quoted all the figures they could quote, so I'm not going to tell you. I'm just going to give you one thing. Just one thing for you. This country has spent four years. In fact, since the coup against President Dilma, this country has been like an old truck going downhill without control. This country stopped making social policy. How many houses were built after we left government? How many houses for the poor? Today we build houses for the poorest people and people on Bolsa Família and BPC don't pay for the house, because the state has the right to guarantee people the right to housing. It's in the Federal Constitution of this country. If we want to make a revolution in this country, Pacheco, we don't have to read a book by Marx. We don't have to be Leninists. We don't have to be Mao Zedong. We don't have to be Fidel. Read the Brazilian Constitution and let's regulate all the rights of the Brazilian people that are there. And that's what we're doing.

I've found hundreds and hundreds of paralyzed hospitals in this country. Hundreds and hundreds of paralyzed UPAs. Almost 6,000 kindergartens paralyzed in this country. I found 87,000 Minha Casa, Minha Vida houses abandoned. The other day I went to Ceará to inaugurate a house that should have been inaugurated in 2018. Because this plague of locusts that has swept through this country in recent times has only come to destroy, not to build anything.

When we came into government, they sent away the More Doctors that Dilma had brought in. They sent them away. Do you know how many doctors there were when we arrived in this country? Anyone who works in healthcare here should know. There were only 12,500 doctors. Today we have 26,000 doctors covering the health of the poor people of this country, in cities that often can't even afford a doctor, because doctors are expensive. So I said to you: I want to be president again. I had already been president. I had already been, you know, it was like, but I wanted to come back to teach a lesson to the people who don't like us.

This country has always been governed by only 35% of the population. It never reached 40%. It has always been governed. The poor were only seen at election time, because at election time, every candidate speaks ill of bankers and embraces the poor. When the elections are over, to hell with the poor and they go and look after the bankers they despised during the elections. And I wanted to prove that politics can be different. I, for example, think that bankers have to make money, because if they don't, the government is obliged to do what Fernando Henrique Cardoso did with PROER. Twenty-something billion to save the banks. I want businesspeople to earn money, because if businesspeople earn money, they'll invest, they'll hire workers, they'll pay wages, wages will turn into consumption, consumption will go to commerce, commerce will grow, stores will buy more things, industry will produce and people will eat more. That's the country I want to build. And it can be built.

Now, as this country was governed with only 35% of the population in mind, we decided to include the people in this country. In other words, the people have to be taken into account, because the people who are poorer are not poorer because they want to be poor. Nobody chooses to be poor. I choose to be a doctor, I choose to be an engineer, I choose to be a lawyer, I choose to be a teacher. The only thing we don't do is "I want to be poor, I want to eat badly, I want to live badly, I want to dress badly". There's no such thing. We want to eat well, we want to dress well, we want to live well. We want to have the latest television, we want to have good cell phones, we want to go on vacation, we want to go to the beach, we want to eat meat like people who eat meat. Why do we have to be trampled on all our lives?

Then someone asks me, a journalist: "But, Lula, don't you think they're spending too much? The minimum wage has already been increased twice. Good heavens, the minimum is the minimum. The name says it all. There's nothing lower than the minimum. Now, how can I discuss, make a fiscal adjustment, over the minimum of the minimum. What I wanted to do was make a fiscal adjustment to the profitability of this country's bankers, who make money speculating on the stock exchange, speculating, you know, every day. I'm not going to touch the humblest people. The humblest people, the state has to take care of them, because a middle-class citizen doesn't need the state. The guy who has a house, the guy who has a car, the guy who is well married, the guy who has a family, his children studying at a good school, he doesn't need the government. The government needs to look at those who need it, like a mother. I always say this: governing is about putting a mother's heart in our heads so that we learn to take care of everyone, on equal terms, and to take more care of the most fragile, the most dependent. This is the country we're going to build, people. This is the country I'm proving it's possible to build.

I'd like to say to the deputies and senators. I wanted to say something to you. I'd like to say to the vice-governor, to my companion who is perhaps the oldest person here, apart from me. I want to say the following: I doubt, and the press is here, there must be a lot of intellectuals here, I doubt that there was a day in the state of Minas Gerais that a President of the Republic came to announce the number of things that I came to announce here. I doubt it. I doubt it.

And we're going to build the BR-381, because we've already tried to hold an auction once, and the auction was empty. There's a stretch near Governador Valadares that's very complicated. So I said to my minister: "Minister, here's the deal: whatever the businessman doesn't want to do, which is to gnaw on the bone, the government will gnaw on the bone and we'll make this road". That's what's going to happen in Minas Gerais.

And so I forgot to tell you, but there's going to be an institute in Barreiro. There's going to be an institute. All that's left is for the mayor to sign the document. I hope that Camilo and the mayor agree to sign it, because what I want is to educate these people, because people who are well educated, people who have a profession, go ahead and nobody needs the state. And that's what I'm going to build. And I'll say it again, I said it here: I want to be president again to prove that we can take care of poor people. And I want you to know: I'm going to take care of you the way I take care of my son, the way I take care of my granddaughter, the way I take care of the things I love, because I'm only where I am, I'm only what I am, an illiterate northeasterner who's only trained as a lathe operator, to become president of the Republic. There are two things: the work of God and the work of the courage of those of you who had the pleasure of electing me.

That seems better
