Brazilian Government offers bribes to bureaucrats that actually do their jobs

The Brazilian government's PAC (Accelerated Development Program), responsible for distributing millions up to the next presidential election, has just sent an URGENT CONSTITUTIONAL project of law to the congress.
This law will pay hefty sums to bureaucrats who actually do their jobs instead of just showing up at the ministries to collect their paychecks (or send a "secretary" to do so).
The law stipulates $25 million US to be divided among 2,974 federal bureaucrats if the do their job of spreading around the money allocate to the PAC programs before the election.
