When the laws are created by the crooks; they first create the loopholes. By using these loopholes - if they are caught - they go scot free and continue to remain in power [and continue to steal].

And to think that just a few years ago DumbAss Dilma wanted a permanent seat on the UN because she considered Brazil the equivalent to a first world, western country.

I don't know about that, she could always claim Brazil to be equivalent to the Vatican.

Full of MIB d's 'heroes' (MenInBlack dresses) sitting on untold wealth kept for their own use and shagging everybody they can, irrespective of sex and age.

Perfect match!
