Interesting view and a logical one too.

It's a similar problem to the one China is facing with rising living standards, improved wages for workers and strong movement towards being a country that could one day have good living conditions.

The downsides are immediately obvious when manufacturing and export industries can become uneconomical due to far higher costs like most western countries.

The “topics” president Rousseff is talking about are precisely the same challenges that Argentina is currently facing and tackling..........

Expect much more cooperation between Argentina and Brazil in the next coming months about new “Defensionistic Meassures” .........

Actually think they really aren't but nice try.

I think realistically you have to expect less co-operation since Brazil isn't adopting the same stance as Argentina.

Erm... Brazil IS a RICH country. The fact that the majority of Brazilians are poor is the fault of a small number of very wealthy Brazilians. Of course it plays better at home to blame it on Gringo.

2 'I don't Think'

No mention of Argentina here 'I don' Think'. I think I may know why that is!

I don't think Rouseff is stupid at all. And she would have to be stupid to ally her country to yours with the Mad Bitch killing the economy by her own actions.

You just love to twist things, or when you KNOW you are in the wrong. to put out a few lies hoping the gullible will agree with you.

Hasn't worked this time 'I don't Think'.
