Brazils Petrobras in ChinaAt the same time as they are announcing Brazil's achievement of oil self-sufficiency, the newspapers are also informing us that 27% of young Brazilians neither attend school nor work. We know that another 25% work instead of going to school, and that, of those who succeed in completing high school, the majority do this without receiving a satisfactory education. Less than 25% of Brazilians graduate from a high school with a minimum of quality.

Ohhhh Cristovam...is back !!!!
written by Guest, February 28, 2006


As a presidential candidate, we thought you would be campaigning for your eventual election ! But it looks like you even have time to write articles on this site...apart from wheeling and dealing...with Caixas2, 3, 4 and 5 !

Your critics on education are very true ! So what did you do....while you were....Minister of Education ??????
And what did you do for education, while you were governor ?
It also looks like that campagning for becoming a brazilian president is not a full time job. Lets assume 4 hours per week !
Right ?

As to the lack of Brazilian Nobel prize, well you should listen and read to what his Highness Lula said : airplane is a brazilian invention ! Could be very well correct, with Santos Dumont, but he did not enjoy residing in Brazil, so he went to France to live and develop his invention. But sorry for Lula, if a foreigner residing in Brazil develops an invention it becomes a Brazilian invention ! So why then the opposite is not true, as per Lula, when a Brazilian residing outside Brazil, invents something in a foreign country ? Well, it looks like Lula has only half his brain working !

I dont know how many Saints, recognized by the Vatican, you have in Brazil !
What is sure is that Lula will definitely try to be cannonized, but being so smart, while stille alive. He will do everything to have his goal fulfilled...whatever the cost will be, because afterall it will not come from his own money but the government money !

Now Cristovam, time to go campaigning if you really desire to be the next President of Brazil !!!!!

Smile ! Cheers !
We invest a great deal in economic growt

Really you did, you do ?????

So why is everyone complaining about the lack of infrastructure, education, hospitals, healtcare, low cost housings ??????

And by the way what economic growth you are talking about ???????

Dont you know that Brazil, has the lowest economic growth of ALL developing countries either in a 1 year or 3 years period ??????

So tell us know, what do you mean by ....you invest a great deal in economic growth ???????

You are talking about corruption ? Ohhhh yess much investments were made there. But recovering the money lost in the "politician projects" will be almost impossible ! Guess why !

Smile !

Only a few deluded Brazilians believe that Dumont invented the airplane - a fantasy of monumental proportions for a fantastically underacheiving nation. Buarque is right that the Brazilian educational system must do much better. There is so much wasted brain power in Brazil - it's probably the country's #2 problem after endemic immorality. The latter is a mixed blessing - the same thing which causes the aforementioned corruption does make it easy to get laid!
