Brazil Lula's Family Voucher Is No Charity and Makes Economic Sense PDF Print E-mail

Brazilian family helped by Bolsa Família In the results of Brazil's National Survey of Sample Households (PNAD) there is an explanation for the President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's popularity that intrigues the center, the right, and part of the left. Brazil became less unequal in many senses. To call the advances which have been achieved "welfare" doesn't help to understand the current reality nor to work toward more profound changes.

- Bolsa Familia budget equals to 8 billion Reals for 45 millions people, giving a result of a 0,50 Reals a day....for 3 delicious meals as Bin Lula
is so proud of repeating !!!!!! Hmmmmmm !!!!
- Based on the GDP per capita, Brazil is ranked as a middle income country. But Noooo country in the world with similar GDP per capita
has as much péoverty than.....Brazil ! Nothing to be proud of !!!
- Brazil is ranked the World Second Worst after South Africa....for both the wealth inequality AND the crime rate. Noting top be proud of either !
- Brazil prefers to export agricultural goods to the tune of over US$ 50 billion annually instead of better feeding their 25 % of the population that is either under nourrished or starving ! Nothing to be proud of either !

Viva Bin Lula the Brazilian Robin Crook !!!

True Brazilians are proud of being Brazilians

Thanks to President Lula, Brazil has a chance. It's wonderful to see that a country with such potential is finally reaching up to it and succeding. And what I find most amazing is to see a President putting all this effort into building these changes, and have ignorant people bad mouthing his government. Do these greedy unfortunate souls think there is another way to fix things than by starting with the poorest classes? They expect the government to do nothing, so they can have something to complain of, sad for them this government is not giving them anything, so they bring out pessimism instead, saying that Brazil ain't that great because the streets aren't build out of gold and our trees don't grow dollars. Yes, Brazil is pretty far from this Utopic Kingdom that this selfish people want to live at. If we are realistic instead we see that Brazil is definetly going the right direction, and is developing with a lot of strengh and consistency, and making the changes to it's social aspect that no other government in its entire history(!!!) ever tryied or wanted to do. I'm proud to be Brazilian, and proud of the government I helped elect. No the population is not starving so we export more! No Brazil is not ranked second worse after South Africa! But yes, Brazil has a lot of poverty, and may be considered a middle income country. However, the poverty we have is related to many years of being a low income country, so you can't expect for things to change from night to day. In a few more years poverty will be reduced even more, and than Brazil will be compared to the other middle income countries, that for sure have been that way much longer. I gotta tell you, it feels so good to be Brazilian

Cala a boca ô desdentado batendo no peito. "Oh, como eu tenho orgulho de ser brasileiro"...
Ninguém tá nem aí pra isso, o mundo tá cagando pro teu orgulho.
Let's keep the pessimists out of Brazil

It is annoying reading comments from the same blood suckers that, I's sure, supported the atrocities we faced with previous governments. Finally we have a true democratic government in the country working for who elected them, the poorest of Brazilians.
So, if you don't like what you see, do something yourself or get out.

According to my investigation, millions of persons in the world receive the mortgage loans at different creditors. Thence, there's good chances to find a financial loan in any country.
