I do not give a damn, but I want Brazil to have some fun and make a few bucks. They have been hurting the last year or so.

Brazil is one of the world's largest oil producers, but it does not spend some of that income on it's poor...



I hope that it is a major bust, causing the global community to revise its attitude on this hyper-expensive, absurdly pointless festival for brats and egos.

Brats and egos?  Where do you get THAT from?

It actually does.

Brazil has come a long way in the last three decades. As its economy roared to life,

the country transformed from a debt pariah into a rising global star. Between 1988

and 2013, GDP doubled and inflation fell from 5 percent a week to 5 percent a year.

More recently, since the late 90s, there has been a middle class boom. More and

more Brazilians watched their incomes rise and some 25 million people ascended

from poverty into the middle class, which now represents some 70 percent of Brazilian

citizens.1

 This thriving group outnumbers the combined populations of France and the

UK, and accounts for just over half of the country's total consumer spending, now a big

piece of the country's economic story.

Crime once again will be a concern like it was with the World Cup.

Is there anything you don't have an issue with? Is there anything you don't try to tear down and present in a bad light in the name of your own self-serving interests?



You are without a doubt the most miserable SOB alive.



Do us all a favor old man and fuck off and die. If you are what old age looks like I hope I get run over by a bus before I hit 50.

[Bricktop]

Just to be sure, I'd go for an 18 wheeler. You vs a bus might be a mismatch.
