What he said is not the reality of the country at all.

Like any other country, Brazil have been facing some issues because of the current world crises, but it not remotely close to what happened to countries like Spain, Portugal or Greece.

Currently, Brazil's biggest problem is part of the media and some politicians that what to put an end to our democracy by not respecting the president that was democratically reelected last year.

By the way, I see a lot of prejudice against countries like Argentina and Venezuela everywhere. Oddly, most of the people believing that these countries are the worst place in the world never went there to see and understand what is really happening. Pro tip: They are just ordinary third world countries dealing with ordinary third world country issues.


Don't worry. In 3 years people will forget everthing and reelect most politicians and then start complaining about them the following year.

Fun fact about the media: the president was reelected with more than 50% of the votes, but according to their "polls" she had the approval of less than 20% of the population since 2014.

She did not have my vote (neither did Aecio), but she was reelected and that has to be respected. Also, she did none of these things that people complain so much. EVERTHING has to be approved by the legislative and some good things that she and some other politicians proposed were disapproved, like the end of campaign donations, which she proposed, the legislative did not accept, but STF thankfully put an end on it today.

Most people don't even have an idea about how things work and just blame the president.

Okay, so it is normal and healthy for a third-world country to have a current account deficit at 10% of GDP and a large fiscal deficit alongside it. Got it.



 
I WON A BET AGAINST AZUREN! WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Coming from South America there's this concept call 'viveza.' It means taking advantage of others whenever you can. That's why most South America-in Peru at least- people are so distrustful of strangers-unless they are white foreigners- since strangers could screw them over. To protect themselves people in third world countries tend to be very cliquish and adopt a sheep mentality.



Im Brazilian, its going trough a crisis and all but its far from imploding, the government is corrupt as fuck and had it been a little bit smart the country would be one of the richest in the world right now, but like always they decided to rob everything and misapropriate money and stuf and so were on the same place weve always been here in Brazil, a country that everyone thinks will be an economic powerhouse one day but that is held back by its own politicians greed and corruption.

And Argentina has imploded already like 3 or 4 years ago, has recovered pretty well and is somewhat stable now.
