Already started, BLM movement.

Our daughter in law is from Brazil. My wife and I traveled there last November. The country is absolutely beautiful and immense. But, it is sad to see the effects of what a corrupt political system in place for so many decades has done to a once prosperous society.
The people are a proud people who understand that their predicament for the most part may be hopeless. It is sad to have made friends with our in-laws and to see their plight and know they could be so much better off ironically in a country like America, except our road to ruin just happens to be 50 or so years behind where Brazil currently is.

Clinton WAS impeached.

The Senate, by a simple majority voted to remove him from office but it was not the 2/3rds majority needed.

Bill Clinton: impeached, disbarred and convicted of perjury.

We sit and watch instead of doing, we would rather let a low life loser destroy our country before our very eyes because we are afraid of being called a racist, we are truly sick

There are a lot of "wes" in there, amigo. True we elect the low lives WE call congress and WE expect them to do their job but WE get screwed every time.

The only thing WE are guilty of is not storming DC with weapons blazing and blood dripping off of our bodies from these traitors

I do not mind being called a racist even on this board and have been called it many times here on FR for calling Obama what he is, a mullata halfbreed nigra. Here we go........

We were there in the late 80s and the country was under military control.

The exchange rate when we got there was 1000 cruzeros to a dollar. When I left 10 months later it was nearing a million.

I was in the state of Bahia in the town of Salvador where the slavers made port back in the day. I traveled to my start up assignment about 140 km every day so I got to see a large piece of the State and the impoverishment that went with it. From people selling a downsized armadillo that grew there to seafood along the roads to overloaded buses that ran off the sides of the mountains killing hundreds.

The town was a mess and the people were dirt poor and wages were suppressed beyond belief. I made twice as much a month on my COLA (cost of living allowance) as they did in a month.

The Brazilian government had bounties on homeless children. Do not know if it was dead or alive just that they were paying a bounty. We were warned not to leave our kids unattended when we went to the Marcados or on the beaches. The river that ran through the city was the main sewer line and where it dumped into the Atlantic/Caribbean children would be seen down there fighting the buzzards over discarded waste.

The people on this post seem like this country just got this way overnight with this president. It has been this way a long time. Graft and corruption is #1 priority and a way of life.

Bargaining and dealing is expected down to the smallest shopping item and a way of life The government pukes just deal bigger.

Yes. But seven years of a patently unqualified occupant of our White House and all congress does is cover up and enable it. Go figure— they’ve sold us out and must be voted out as many and as soon as possible.

Brazil has been the country of tomorrow since the 19th Century.

Endemic corruption has been the problem.

Remember, Allende had his own Marxist militia, armed and trained by Cuba, to attack the military (they might have been known as MIR or by a similar acronym). They waged street guerrilla warfare until literally wiped out by Pinochet’s military, which wasn’t happy keeping prisoners.

Lulu is a Marxist. Rousseff is a Marxist terrorist. Their covert supporters and bought off supporters will fight back.

Let’s see if it is 1964 all over again.
