Income inequality is huge in Brazil. You may be better off than many others and as a result not be hit as hard.

I really hope that Brazil and Argentina won't go into depression, I really don't want people to suffer. Hopefully the Brazilian/Argentinian users here can give us updates on what's going on (although I may be the only one interested in the updates).

If i can give you one advice, being a fellow south american, wake up before its too late.

All these polititians are cut with the same scissor, they stick it up your ass slowly and when you finally realize, you have a 15 inch cock inside you.

Im telling you from first hand experience, i had to live with Hugo Chavez for almost 15 years of my fucking life, and now i have to deal with the borderline retard Nicolas Maduro.

Wake up now! Dilma, Lula and Cristina Kirchner are the same shit as Chavez.

P.D. Mercosur is worthless.

Well, I live here also, in Brasilia, and it seems that you're exagerating things a bit. It is difficult, but we've been through worse times.
Brazil is a great place to live if you're rich, but if you're poor, you're f*cked

Yeah, listen to Aegro. Venezuela is worth shit nowadays, and (sadly) it can and will get worse. I'm still a kid, so I don't have much to say. But do something before it all turns into disaster.

Maybe a little overreactive, but just hearing what my dad has to go through daily makes me really sad.

Ecuador is on the brink of disaster too. There is a too obvious pattern of which South American economies are doing well and which ones aren't.

Completely agree with you. People say things are bad, but nobody had to make a drastic change in his/her life. The only diference now is that U$ is worth more than it used to compared to R$.

I'd say that there is a politic crisis though, because most politicians just thing about their own interests. I see that these times could mean that the country is changing for better, that people will not accept some situations anymore and we finally have a strong sense of democracy.

Also, I'd like to say that most Brazilians just don't help to give a good image to our country. Brazilians always say everthing is worse or everthing is wrong here. I just imagine what people from other countries think that is going on here after reading such things, they must think we live in hell. Interesting that most people who come here are surprised to see that it is actually a good place. I'm not saying it's perfect, because we do have many problems, but it is not even close to beeing bad. 

This type of thinking of what allows the problems to exist. Even if it isn't as bad as before, it should be criticized and protested to stop things from getting worse and to help things get better.

Things in Argentina are really bad, the government is running out of dollars so there will be a massive devaluation after the elections with a high risk of hyperinflation. People are hoping Macri gets elected and magically fix everything, I am not so optimistic. If Scioli wins, we will end up like Venezuela, if Macri wins, we will end up like Greece, but much worse.
Fortunately Brazil woke up before it's too late, but they will have at least two years of recession.

Yeah, I know, the social inequality here in south america as a whole, i think, is very comon... :/
