Im not a Brazillian myuself but I heard the IMF could get involved. If so they'd better be careful because the IMF rarely has the interests of the native population at heart. Im not sure how much of Brazils assets are nationalized but if significant entities exist chances are they'll come after them like pack of rabid dogs through glorious "privatization". Just look at the IMFs history throughout Africa, The Middle East and South America. Its shady to say the least.

That'd be my thoughts as well.

Regardless of smoke-and-mirrors that seves as an excuse for these political perturbations, when I researched the subject it seemed very fishy to me. Though I don't know much about politics in Brazil, what I do know is that today at the peak of global deflation, when assets are cheep (I mean real assets, not overpriced corporate crap of some gizmo production but some valuable assets: energy, food, minerals, roads, infrastructure etc.), it's such a good chance for a massive sell out. And that's what in fact is happening around the globe. I'm not exactly sure why Brazilians, or whoever, should be paying for these deadbeats.

If I were Brazilian, I'd be looking through the media for whatever new faces in the government have to say. The word "privatization" should be one huge red flag.
