RE: Monday Morning Quote: "A wise traveler never despises his own country"
It seems unwise to despise a country even if one despises those that run it.

I see loads of brazilians despising our country because of politics @steemonkey
"I wanna leave this garbage country, there's no way to live here" - They say.
When in fact this type of thought is what makes politics so bad, we should be working together into making a better country, instead of despising it and running away. If they despise Brazil, why would they like somewhere else, when they'll be mere foreigners, it's so sad.
Politics and politicians are the problem. It's never the people who are always kept in the dark.
Yeah sure thing, but if brazilians united to do a great strike it would make a gigantic impact, we are milions over here.
Problem is that besides outstanding people, there are the ones who always try to get some advantage on everything, thus, acting like our politicians.
That's why I want to live in a sailboat hahahaha that way I don't need to deal with land stuff anymore.
I know what you mean ;)
I think it's the people, those politicians were normal people, and these normal people have much power bot they don't realize. If people were united, they could make big changes, but when they're selfish, there's not much hope.
That's such a great philosophy. I think people feel powerless and we're wired for negativity.
Sure thing @riverflows, and I do think that the government wants us to live like that, by feeling powerless we won't raise our forces.
It's the consuming mind attitude, "this country has nothing for me, so i should leave it". Though there are few great people with great ideas who leave the country to somewhere that supports their idea, but in most cases it's a consuming attitude,like we're just born to consume.
That's true, some great minds are leaving the country simply because there's no support here, especially when it comes to research.
