    China and Brazil are on opposite movements. And precisely because of that these two countries have become one of the largest alliances in the world today.

    - China migrates from one investment position focused on exports for a strengthening position of the internal market through consumption.

    - The Brazil migrates from a position of growth based on domestic consumption to investment in productivity and products with higher added value focusing on the Chinese market.

    It is interesting to note how the BRICSA countries act in fine tuning. The convergence of political and macroeconomic actions leads me to believe that these group of countries will lead the world for many centuries.

    There has never been in the world such an alliance.

    I expected a little more intelligent debate.

    I was a little disappointed but I understand given that you are North-American.

    I'm not racist. I'm nationalist. If anyone disparage my country or my America I will defend me and then immediately will attack the country's adversary.

    Is he?

    It could be worse Hepatia. He could be like you, an Argentinean living in the US pretending to be intelligent.

    And I am sad to hear that none of the Brasileiros will be travelling to the fellow BRICS countries of India and South Africa.

    I, on the other hand, look forward to visiting Brazil and enjoying my time there. I can't thing ago any reason why I wouldn't.

    Hep C .....You prove that statement you can have all that I own !!!!!!!!!!!

    Born and breed in NYC as......Williamsburg Hosp as I told YB. While I have nothing against the brits..........I am the farthest thing from a brit. Come to Massachusetts and I'll show you..... Oh, but you can't. More than you can say you viral piece of shit. You might want to let the US military know that all these years I had lied of my place of birth AND all the federal agencies that my current licences are authorized via, my homeland clearance are wrong et al. Go back to the test tube at the lab in La campora that you were born in.

    While most here have no less than 3 screen names and most are either islanders or Argentines, we are all not.

    Meet me in Worcester Mass you fucking idiot. But, I would prefer you get your due and suffer the pains of a kirchner governmnent.

    So yeah Hep C........let's hear you make your case here? You side like a politician.....say something, anything........and pretend it's real.

    @2 brASSHOLE, the one 'with shit for brains'.
    “China and Brazil are on opposite movements.” Very profound...but meaningless.

    “It is interesting to note how the BRICSA countries act in fine tuning”. Indeed. All of them, with the exception of India, sinking together

    @4
    “I expected a little more intelligent debate”.....
    it's hard to put aside a first-class education and to try to reason like an ignorANUS. Maybe easier if you got an education....and if you did, you might then realize what an idiot you've been.

    @6
    “No. It means that I do not give the slightest value to english language.”
    Just confirms that your priorities are confused, which explains your absurd statements. Just like Lula, who is proud to not have studied and is an ignorant s.o.b.

    @8
    “I'm not racist. I'm nationalist”......
    You sound racist . You hate whites. Blind nationalism is for ignorant idiots who know no better. Maybe you should return to Africa.

    @10
    “You're an idiot! Like most of his country in debt.”
    What's that supposed to mean ? Just gibberish.

    @12
    “To any English-speaking country I never will travel.”
    I wouldn't worry about that. None would let you in.

    BrASSHOLE, haven't heard much recently from your pal 'with no brain'. Did you kick him out of your shack because he was farting too much in bed ?
