I wish a million people would march on Washington D.C. to protest our horrible government.

I stopped caring about Brazil lately, there is always a problem there. Just waiting for the civil war to start... I am surprised it hasn't started by now.... but then if one does start, the American's have another playground.

A cohesive government might translate to more growth and a better direction of public policies, though. It might be that poeple like it because the gains on quality of life and wealth outweight the potential losses with corruption when compared to a clear and competitive, but ultimately inneficient, government. |
In that case, they got what they asked for. They wanted somebody to control their lives and make decisions about their lives for them. With the understanding that politicians are humans with their own self-interest and not super humans and wholly altruistic, it is easy to come to the conclusion that the corrupt will find their way into such positions of power with few conseuqences. It is just a matter of time. Even if you vote for an angel, there is nothing preventing you from voting for the masked devil next time around. And I think the most centralized governments in history have had the slowest growth-rates until they've decentralized.

Ugh so sick of America trying to get involved in everything around the world. If Brazil has a civil war then let them be, we don't need to get involved.
Edit: I don't know if Brazil is close to a civil war or not, I'm really just ranting
Another color revolution sponsored by the US. What would be the difference in a regime chance for brazil? If you want prosperity it sure wont come from uprising and hippies

If you guys could overthrow the junta without having a civil war, no way this will get there.
