RE: Brazil 101 - understanding a problem
Inequality in Brazil is a big problem. But that is the price you pay for living in a tropical country, where the weather is so amicable that allows the existence of extreme poverty living in slums, and even "meninos de rua".
I don't agree, lots of children die in winter in bug cities like Sao Paulo. If Brazil was colder, the number would just be worse.
That is exactly the point. Cold countries does not allow extreme poverty, because they would die in the winter. But Brazil allows poverty, and that is why we have lots of poor people living their live happily here. Brazil destiny is to become a new India, India 2.0.
I am German but I live in Brazil and I know how it is here. I really don`t know where people get an idea like that ??? If it dependes how cold or how warm an country is - how to explain for example the poverty in Romania?
