1.They are in a bit of a crisis like all EM

2.In my view Dilma the President has some blame but not all. It's true that some well run countries in South America are better (Colombia & Chile) and some bad run countries are broke (Venezuela & Argentina). Governments make a difference but all EM countries are doing bad. see the link below

3.Center São Paulo is not Brazil (much richer) but the quality of the services is above many things in NY or London. Exemples: Restaurants the kitchen is top, the Toilette is extremely good taste and they have Manobristas ( vallet parking). The gym (Studio Velocity)is much cleaner than anything i have experienced, the supermarket EaTALY is much better than the one in NY in my view. Of course much of this things are luxury items not necessary items. you need many jobs to perform them and people could live without them.

4.Companies are adjusting & firing people.

5.Since car insurance is not compulsory people are very careful driving (you might hit someone without insurance). No one horns like in NY or Europe.

6. Government just issued new law that creates serious liability for the employer of house service people. Probably they are going to hurt the employees.

7. According to the economist Brazil has a very low immigration. why? Rules are not friendlier to high skilled immigrants.

8.In central São Paulo there are some of the best buildings in the world.

9. The best salad in the world is at the Cantina do Sargento at Pamplona Alameda.

10. What is the way out for Brazil. I think Brazil should invest in everything linked to food. Seed investigation, nutrition investigation, irrigation investigation, new plants, etc... Why? because each country has specialized, Switzerland in watches, chocolate & banks, Italy olive oil&shoes, car's& chemical's in Germany, luxury, tourism &wine in France, Tourism &Financial services in UK, corks & Paper in Portugal high tech in US etc... Brasil has the best food, Mango, Coco, meat, everything tastes good. They should focus on what they already do well. They have soil & water & sun. They should go for it.
