Just my 2 cents, but saying "paying one of the biggest taxes in the world" is really exaggerated

Income tax might not be so high, but taxes for products are very high. Electricity: about 45%, gasoline: about 50%. Import tax/PIS/Confins/ICMS are calculated one after the other, so you pay tax over tax.
