Inside the Mercedes-Benz factory, in São Bernardo do Campo, in the Greater São Paulo, southeastern Brazil, engineer Gilberto Leal and his team work to place on roads trucks that are prepared to consume greater and greater volumes of biodiesel. In the meantime, in Mucuri Valley, in Minas Gerais, truck driver Marco Antônio Teixeira is aware of the information that fueling stations provide as to how to reduce the emission of truck pollutants and makes a point of having biodiesel in the tanks of his vehicles.

Yesssss...from which companies ?
Foreign or Brazilians ?
Hmmmmm !
And I continue to
And UNPAVED ROADS are obviously also GREATTTTTTT for Trucks Maintenance
Costs, slower speed, higher transportation costs, more trucks needed in view of the slow speed !
I cant stop
Viva Brazil !
Dont pave your roads too fast. Dont create railways too fast.
So that you continue shooting in your own rear for a few more decades.
Brazil LOVES being inneficient. It creates more jobs...they believe !
Just like your vast army of Bureaucrats.
As per Doing Business Report, Brazil is ranked World Second WORST for a company to determine its various due taxes !
2400 hours (no mistake) per year against 20-60-100 in most countries...even including many emerging countries !
And there too its creates a lot of UNPRODUCTIVE JOBS AT BOTH SIDE OF THE EQUATIONS !
1) MORE UNECESSARY government jobs
2) MORE UNECESSARY corporate jobs filling & figuring out the ENDLESS government FORMS FOR.....taxes/taxes/taxes/taxes/stamps/licences/authorizations...etc etc... !
It even helps your PULP AND INK AND PUBLISHING industries !
Ohhh and of course also your transportation industry.
All these forms need to be transported back and forth....obviously !
