They're repeating the same story as they have over the last few generations, up, down, up, down, up, down...when will they ever learn?
2. Inflation comes from low unemployment and high credit, it has nothing to do with subsidies for the poor. Are you an idiot? Look at your own economy, you have nothing to say about Brazil. Repeating the same story of last generations? I suggest you buy a few history books and inform yourself, that is, if you're actually capable of complex reading comprehension (which I doubt). Good luck finding a job. Good luck going to a movie theater without getting shot. Good luck sending your kids to school without them being gunned down by another crazy north-american high on medications. Good luck with the next terrorist attacks on the US, because sure enough they will come as a product of your foreign policy. Your contry has enough problems to worry about, and Brazil has given a slap to the face of the US for trying to meddle in it's internal affairs. How's that FTAA working out? Oh right, you got slaped in the face by Brazil.

Apr 06th, 2013 - 03:55 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Please tell me then who pays for the subsidies that are being made to preserve the car industry?
Who pays for the subsidies to the export companies to remain profitable on the international market?
Who pays for the massive losses at the electricity companies because the government artificially keeps the prices down?
Who pays (until recently) for the low cost of road fuels and the loss of revenue for Petrobras?
I will give you a clue: there is only one group involved; can you tell me who they are?
I bet you cannot looking at your diatribe to yankeeboy about inflation.

This was a time when the state provided no support for the poor (not even education in many cases). When will you ever learn?

Apr 08th, 2013 - 02:43 am - Link - Report abuse 0I assume that your post was not just a piece of flatulence and that you were trying to make a point. But what could it be?
Could you be saying that, for some reason you have not given, the policies that failed so dismally 30 years ago, and which left Brazil in such a mess, will some how will magically work if implemented now?
Or could you be saying something more fundamental? Could you be saying that the “science” of Economics is not, unlike for instance Physics, a repository of universal truths but is nothing more than the utterances of vain and vacuous people, otherwise known as economists, expressing the fashion of the day?
There is a third possibility - that you and the original poster are incapable of learning from history and prefer to repeat the mistakes of the past in the vain hope that this time the outcome will be different.
