Right on, Bruno...
I can`t count how many times I`ve heard misinformed kids from outside Venezuela, praising Chavez just because they`ve seen some piece on the news or because they saw some propaganda paid for by the venezuelan government. (The Revolution will not be televised for example)
I`m in no way a Bush lover BTW, far from it.Apparently some people think that if you are against these so called leftist governments you are a right wing conservative.

The Brazilian government sucks. But IMHO the American Goverment and canadian and many others do too, in many ways. Of course, Brazilians are in a much worse shape than the Americans. Its not something you can compare at all. But what makes the scenario this way is not really the government in my opinion. The problem for us is that we have been a colony where the goal of our colonists was to pile as much money as possible. This stayed alive through business. Companies from all over the world come here, make their profit and send money back to their country. This is Brazil´s #1 problem. If you add the bad politicians - you have the current scenario.
Now... I really think people should not be saying things about other people´s country, unless there´s a business reason for it.
I do my part. I voted for who I think was the best option. I pay my taxes, employ people and pay them a good wage. I bring money to my country and I don´t talk about other people´s issues, because HELLO, nobody knows whats the reality until you are INTO that scenario.
Thats my two cents on the subject.
