Interesting take. I once heard a "hot take" that that's part of what has kept the United States from falling into decadence - every few generations America dethrones its elites and replaces them with new ones. All of them have been relatively peaceful, with one major exception (the Civil War). That way the decadenace and cavalier attitude of the nations leaders doesn't destroy the entire nation's potential. Case in point, some previous elites in American history were: Late 1700s - early 1800s: Northeastern merchants Early 1800s - 1865: Southern planters (This dethronement of the elite was, indeed, very violent) 1865 - 1930s: Northern industrialists 1930s - 1970s: Government beuracrats 1970s - 2010s: College-educated technocrats 2010s - Present: Technophiles (???)

That's so true and I'm so tired of people whining soooo much online. It's everyone's fault but never their own. People complain about wages but open companies and want to pay as little as possible to the collaborators. It's never them, it's always the others. And anyway, it's not even true that it's not going to prosper. In the 90s, over 80% of the country was in extreme poverty, that number has dropped to 32%. People complain that things are getting more expensive, but the truth is inflation is under control and the minimum wage policy always raises it by inflation + GDP growth. That essentially means the country is inching closer to more equality, which is a major issue. So what if some middle class families can't binge on frivolous ultraprocessed crap as they used to be able to before? The country's eradicating famine. Transportation has improved, environmental action has improved, infrastructure is getting better, multiple municipalities are tackling crime and homelessness. It's a MUCH better place than what it was when I was a kid. But people have the memory of a clownfish and can't for the love of God remember what we've already had to endure. Brazilians are WHINERS. They don't even realize that they're better off than most of humanity. They need someone to blame for every misfortune that they have. They're entitled. It actually reminds me of Americans.

Question I have is what does 'awaken' mean and why does Brazil need to? I'm guessing 'awaken' means becoming a world beating 'great' power contending in geopolitical contest. Historically, a great power arises out of generational struggle(s) against an existential threat which requires collective action by its population. Once the threat is resolved, the legacy (culture and traditions) of this struggle carries the nation into regional/world power status. However, Brazil does not face any existential threats from its neighbors or faraway foreign powers. So I don't see Brazil 'awakening' any time soon, though I cannot rule out possibility of a unique historical anomaly of Brazil 'awakening' without this external stimulus. The only thing I can think of that will push Brazilians into collective action in the near future is perhaps some kind of ecological disaster stemming from climate change. Only time will tell.

[@risaadthemerchant5142]

I get what you're reffering to and that's exactly the problem hindering development in the country, but not in the way most people think. The biggest problem in Brazil is how the country resolved their "generational struggles", not the fact that the country doesn't have one right now (it has, but it's more covert and much harder to solve) Historically speaking, Brazil has never had a "rupture" in it's social structures. Because of that you can trace the current elites way back to the colonial times. As an example you can take the Independence from Portugal that turned Brazil from the political center of the Portugal, Brazil and Algarves Empire to the Empire of Brazil, with the brazilian emperor being the son of the latter empire that went back to Portugal to become the king there, leaving his son as the ruler. That happened in every moment that could cause a rupture and restructuring of the backwards elites that rule the country and actually start working towards the interests of the brazilian people. Such moments happened in every developed economy around the world and are the main factor that made those economies do so well to this day

[@fabiofaria4243]

Gentleman, our brains refuse to see what it does not want to see. So, European and American foreigners refuse to consider the hypothesis that Brazil is a nuclear power. My view, however, as a Brazilian civilian that has no connection at all with the official Brazil, is that Brazil has already the bomb and my doubts were removed by the fact that the Brazilian navy has ordered the construction of 4 nuclear submarines (the first one is scheduled to be finish by 2028 and then will be put to sea trials in order to be commissioned). Brazil builds already its 2000 metric tons of displacement traditional diesel electric submarines, which are modern, silent, and deadly and if the idea is to protect our 7000 km Atlantic coast, those subs do that job perfectly well. If the idea is to protect our coast, rather than building 4 nuclear subs with the same money we would build an extra 15 2000 tons diesel electric submarines. The only explanation I can find for the Brazilian decision to build nuclear submarines is because thei are the means of delivery of the bombs. I can not think of any other explanation. Now, you would still think this is just fantasy of a Brazilian civilian that does not know what he is saying. However, you have to consider that Brazil has large reserves of uranium, Brazil operates two nuclear power plants, Brazil produces the uranium drops that keep those two nuclear power plants running, and the question then is whether Brazil has the educated people (engineers, phisicists, chemistricians, metallurgicians, mathematians, statisticians, etc., necessary to produce the bomb. And the money to do that. Well, you foreigners insist on being oblivious to the fact that Brazil has the biggest particles accelerator in the whole Southern hemisphere, named Sirius, and right next to it it has build the most modern and biggest biosafety laboratory on earth, named Orion, and it was built next to the Sirius exactly to be able to benefit immediately from the results of the scientific researches undertaken at Sirius. On top of that, Brazil is among the top 10 countries on Earth in the production of scientific papers and again, is among the top 10 countries in the production of higher mathematics. So, the question I pose to you is this: if Brazil designs and builds and launches to the outer space its own satelites, if Brazil designs and builds first class aircraft which are a tremendous global success - Brazil has the third largest aviation industry on earth - , if Brazil designs and builds its own traditional and nuclear submarines, if Brazil has large reserves of uraniun, and if Brazil has all the raw materials it needs, all the minerals it needs, and 5 steel mills that can produce whatever kind of metal alloys necessary, and if Brazil is absolutely self-sufficient in energy and has the 8th biggest economy measured by GDP, obviously money is not a problem. Then, why on earth would not Brazil be able to build its bomb? Until 2019, I could give you a firm reply about this: no, Brazil will not build the bomb, because as you correctly mentioned, Brazil suffers no threat at all from its neighbors. And in fact, to be precise, the only country and in fact a military alliance named Nato, which in fact is a birds of prey alliance, which the US is the commender in chief, is the only military force capable of invading Brazil. That does not mean at all that Nato would succeed in invading Brazil. Brazil has been invaded in the past 500 years by all the great powers of the time and has always defeated them all, and defeated them alone, singlehandedly. And that has always been so because of the Brazilian geography. Brazil is a natural fortress, far easier to defend and far more difficult for offense operations. However, Nato has the bomb. And Brazil shares a common border with France (France has with Brazil 750 km long land border, which is the longest land border France has with any country), which is a Nato country. And if Nato decides to invade Brazil, it will certainly be hammered and Nato simply could not accept a defeat to Brazil because of the repercussions it would have along with Russia and China, and Nato would not at all allow itself to become the butt of international jokes. So, the solution would be to use tactical nuclear weapons in order to put Brazil on its knees, and Nato would not face any constraints to do that, because Brazil is far away from the US and from European countries and so, who cares about nuclear radiation precipitation after the detonations of such tactical weapons, right? And in my view, this is why Brazil decided to build the bomb, and this is why it is building its own nuclear submarines. The idea of all that exercise is to have that association of birds of prey to think that it is a very bad idea that of seizing the Brazilian rain forest from us. The Brazilian civilians never wanted to hear the military blablabla about the need to build the bomb until 2019. Then, in that yeart, that lilly white, the French Prime Minister, Emanuel Macron, carrying all the responsibility of a head of state of one of the most important countries of Nato, made a declaration that was just one inch from being a full declaration of war against Brazil. That idiot said candidly (wasn't he cute?) that Nato was reconsidering the Brazilian sovereignty over the Brazilian Rain Forest. And what impressed us, Brazilians, most was the American reaction to this unbelievable statement from Emanuel Macron. That is, there simply was no American reaction to it. Total silence. And since the US is the commander in chief of Nato, we decided that where there is smoke there is fire. And in the next day the Brazilian civilians sided with the military in order to produce the bomb. Again, our brain refuses to see what it does not want to see. Have you noticed that recently there have been several earthquakes happening about 100 km below the surface of the Amazon Rain Forest, and because these earthquakes happens so deep down it does not produce any damage on the surface?

[@VincitOmniaVeritas7]

Brazilian expat here. Sadly it won’t. Brazil lost its demographic window in the last two decades and will become old way before it gets any richer. It now has a below replacement fertility rate for the first time and a deficit to GDP ratio similar to that of a developed nation. It managed to scape the hyperinflation of the 80s only to raise taxation enormously in the 90s. The commodities boom of the 2000s made politicians increase government spending like there would be no tomorrow. When the downturn arrived in the 2010s, the high ranking bureaucrats fought tooth and nail against any reform of government expenditure and even raised their own salaries and benefits while the population suffered with inflation not seem in decades. Brazil is a semi-elected managerial oligarchy right now, with a political / bureaucratic caste detached from the reality of their population (it has one of the largest discrepancies between public/private sector salaries in the West). Brazil has become too politically divided to elect a reformist candidate like it just happened in Argentina. And even if they did elect a Xavier Milei equivalent, the establishment is too much entrenched to be removed as quickly: it would take multiple successive terms to do it (and Latin American electorates aren’t famous for being patient and tend to flip after a couple of cycles). I am sad to say that Brazil’s promised future will never come to fruition and it will crumble under the weight of its own Leviathan state as it yearns for a time when it could just coast along on high commodities prices.

It might be controversial, but I don't think public salaries are too high in Brazil, but the private sector pays terribly. The highest ranking salary you can get in the public sector normally is somewhere less than 80,000 (when you deduct taxes) dollars annually, but 40,000 is already a gigantic salary. The private sector, on the other hand, pays at best 10,000 for someone with a good degree and recommendations. Only very old people and doctors can make the same amount as a high-ranking public sector employer can. It's also the case that Brazilians aren't good workers or business man, middle-class Brazilians have a lot of opportunities to do so, but they mostly spend their entire lives being paid by their parents to succeed, which leads to most liberal professions being filled with useless people.

The fact is that everything that we decide to speciliaze, we are able to do it. Aviation, medicine, chemistry sector, agroindustry, military innovation, pharmaceuticals. In many of those sectors, or we are leaders or we are giving a hard time to the top economies in the world 😂 I just seat and watch ❤🇧🇷

Brazil lost a lot of economic complexity in the 90s and 2000s. This was a trade-off of opening the economy to foreign companies and investors. All the promissing businesses that could eventually be successful were not ripe in order to compete with huge conglomerates from USA and Europe and with China imported goods. So competition crushed them. Now we dont have relevant companies for common industrialized goods such as cars, machinery for factories, etc.

Brazil can attract industries and intellectual capital if the government decides that it is what they wanna do. But they don't. Instead, they created the highest VAT in the world, squeezing even more the workforce, without giving then anything as exchange, not even jobs.

Brazil has three regions socially and economically distinct. South and South East are relatively developed with higher GDP and HDI and these characteristics led these states to pay more taxes to the federal government. The North East is lower in GDP and HDI and there are no navigable rivers that allows them to economically make trade to other parts of the country. Furthermore, it is separated from other parts of the country by a biome called Cerrado, the most biodiverse savanna on the planet but with a land very difficult for human beings. The last region is Amazon basin. The largest tropical forest on the planet and corresponds 48% of the whole country. Very low HDI and GDP and lacks in many basic aspects, for instance there are people that has no basic sanitation and no drinking water. All these three geographical regions make political desires from the population very different and it causes division in the parliament to make policies in pro of the country and also it is a trigger for populist politicians to get into power and make false promises to the people.

Acho que sua análise ficou simples e superficial, primeiro na parte geo-economica o sul e sudeste são claramente divididos(o IBGE faz essa divisão por uma razão), no sudeste é onde fica a maior parte da economia do país com São Paulo, Rio e Minas tendo a economia as mais dinamicas por uma serie de razões. Ja o Sul tem uma economia menor que o sudoeste, mas melhor distribuição e qualidade de vida, com só o RS tendo uma economia comparável aos estados do Sudeste. Há também a região centro-oeste, que parece que você esqueceu na sua análise o que é incongruente, Pois é a região com maior produção agrícola do país e também uma das regiões com maior importância devido a nossa economia ser baseada em commodities. Outra erro foi colocar o Nordeste como isolado geograficamente do país, mas isso não é verdade a maioria da população do nordeste reside na faixa litorânea de mata Atlântida conectando a região ao resto do país pelo litoral. Já em relação à economia do nordeste, atualmente o Nordeste assume o papel de região "deficitária", que tem mais foco do Governo Federal por razões de desenvolvimento, essa é uma situação temporária que ocorreu historicamente em várias das regiões do Brasil, por exemplo ocorreu no sul durante o período imperial e ocorreu no centro-oeste na segunda metade do século 20.

Gentleman, Brazil is too big a country for a foreigner to grasp it correctly. It is not at all easy to understand Brazil for the non-initiated. Brazil was founded in the year 1500 and become independent in 1822. For the first 322 years Brazil was a Portuguese colony and as such was not the master of its destiny. So, as an independent country, Brazil begun equating and providing solutions for its problems only as from 1822 onwards. Right after having become independent the top number one national priority was to keep the country united, which we did with astounding success (Spanish America split into 9 different countries just in South America). Then our second national priority was to defend the country from our Spanish speaking neighbors, who, being Spaniards, had to be anarchical and belicose and from 1822 until 1870 Brazil was involded in wars with Uruguay, Argentina, Paraguai and French Guiana. And we again succeeded in accomplishing our second national goal (defending the country against invasion). Having solved the two most urgent issues, our third national priority was to abolish slavery (this is a Portuguese liability, not Brazilian, but we are suffering the consequences of slavery up to now, just like the United States), and in 1888 we abolished it, and we granted full citizenship rights to the former slaves. You compare the Brazilian approach with the American solution. They abolished slavery 89 years after having become indepedent, while we abolished slavery only 66 years after having become independent. And in order to accomplish the abolition they had a civil war which cost the life of Abraham Lincoln, but they did not grant to the former slaves full citizenship rights , but rather considered them as third class citizens that did not have the same rights the white people had and had to live under odious segregation policies, and the Americans only granted full citizenship rights to the Afro-Americans in 1965 (after the death of Martin Luther King), so, all in all, the Americans only granted full citizenship rights to the Afro-Americans 189 years after their independence. We did that only 66 years after our independence and this is why we have to racial or religious problems in Brazil while the US has both. The Afro-Americans only achieved full citizenship rights 59 years ago! So, every Afro-American who is older than 59 years old still bear in their minds the humiliations, the discriminations, they had to suffer, 59 years is to short a period for the Afro-Americans to let it go, while in the Brazilian case the Afro-Brazilians enjoy full civil rights for the past 136 years, which explains to a large extent why we do not have the huge racial and religious problems the Americans do face. This is another great national accomplishment of the Brazilian society. Then we entered in the 20th century. Brazil was the only Latin American country which fought in WWI and WWII, we suffered (like all other countries the huge problems caused by the Spanish Flu, the Great Depression, then the permanent attempts by the left to seize the power which led to a military government much like in the Spanish fashion under Franco, but we begun our industrialization process (which we succeeded fully, today Brazil is a fully industrialized country), we moved our capital to the hinterland of Brazil more than 1000 km from the coast, and began our steady but relentless march to the West, and we were able to solve our huge inflation and huge foreign debt because we were heavily struck and put on our knees by two consecutive oil shocks, and Brazil which was not an oil producer suffered a very heavy blow. And in the end of the 20th century Brazil established as its main priority to achieve full energetic independence, which we did. This is a great story of succees of Brazil. And Brazil began the 21st century in fifth gear, at high speed, and we are beginning to take-off. The greatest achievement is that Brazil has tamed the tropics, meaning by that that Brazil has learned to put the Tropics to work for it and not against it (and this is a hell of a game-changer). Just to highlight what that means, in 2022 The United States produced 120 million metric tons of soy (it used to be the first World producer), Argentina 40 million tons (second world producer) and China 15 million tons (third world producer) and in that year Brazil produced 170 million metric tons of soy. The USDA is projecting that Brazil will be producing by 2040 300 million tons of soy. That miracle is happening to with wheat, corn, etc. We are already the biggest food producer on Earth but in the coming years our position will become stronger and stronger. And here is a typical bias of left-wing economists. They tend to understimate or even minimize a country's agribusiness production, believing that a country in order to be "rich" must produce and export industrialized goods and a country that produces grains, raw materials, minerals, you name it is an underdeveloped and poor country. This is an idiotic approach. There is nothing in the economic literature that confirms this viewpoint. Much to the contrary, all rich countries (the US, Canada, France, Germany, you name it) all have a powerful and thriving agribusiness. But Brazil has become fully industrialized. Brazil designs, builds and launches to the outer space its own satelites, using designed and built in Brazil rockets. Brazil has the third largest aviation industry on Earth, and currently is producing supersonic fighter jets equivalent to the American F-16. Brazil designs and builds its own conventional diesel electric subs and its own nuclear submarines. How many countries can you list that can do the same thing? Brazil has become absolutely self-sufficient in energy, having achieved by far the best energy matrix on Earth, with 75% of it being generated by hydroelectricity, which is non-pollutant and renewable, but Brazil is becoming a very big solar energy and wind energy producer, as well as green hydrogen producer and Brazil is currently the second biggest ethanol producer, with the US being the number one, but this is going to change very soon and Brazil will overtake the US in this game. And Brazil has now become an oil producer as well, so very few countries on Earth can enjoy the energy independence that Brazil has acquired. And Brazil is criss-crossing the country with new, modern, efficient roads and railways and we are currently building two transcontinental roads and two transcontinental railways linking the Atlantic to 6 Pacific ports (three in Peru and three in Chile), and these will be game-changers too. And finally, Brazil has built a very complex network of canals bringing in water to the Brazilian Northeastern region which has always been draught-stricken, responsible for 20% of the Brazilian territory (the size of Alaska) and 25% of the Brazilian population, bringing in water from a perennial river, the São Francisco, and now this region will have all the energy it needs and all the water it needs so it will become in the next decades the region of Brazil with the highest rate of development. Because of all these game-changers, Brazil is expected to double its current GDP which today is about 2,5 trillion dollars in the next 10 years, i.e., by 2034 it will be 5 trillion dollars. And it is expected again to double 10 years afterwards, i.e., by 2045 it will be 10 trillion dollars. This is not a summer night dream, gentleman. This is very much achievable, because our growth is absolutely self-sustainable, and the world has 8 billion souls which need to be fed, and Brazil, together with the US will be the great granaries of mankind and will supply all the rice, corn, soy, wheat, animal protein, etc., that the world will need. This is going to be a firm, non-elastic, permanent demand, and by reaching the Pacific, we will obtain lower FOB prices, because we will reduce our logistics costs, the round trip will be shortened by 30 days, hence, lower financial costs, etc. You foreigners fail to grasp and detect those tsunamic changes which are taking place in Brazil right now.

Fábio, só vou discordar de você em dizer que é um problema da esquerda desconsiderar o agro como uma forma de evolução. A problemática da esquerda no agro é outra. Mas não pode- se negar o quando o agro do Brasil é forte e evoluído. Eeeee também devo colocar em discussão a parte da abolição da escravidão, nós sabemos que não foi bem como a teoria dos pelos direitos. A prática foi uma exclusão dos escravos, eles foram para a margem da sociedade e é onde. A maioria de seus descendentes estão até hoje. Massss há mérito em estarmos tratando disso na atualidade e lutando para dar aos negros e seus descendentes o valor que eles merecem na nossa sociedade. Mas em números eles ainda são a grande maioria nas cadeias e a grande minoria das universidades e nos cargos de poder. Do resto, concordo com o senhor! E gosto muito da sua visão de potência que o Brasil pode ser! É o otimismo que o brasileiro precisa ter!

[@fabiofaria4243]

@@paulapalhao9034 Oi Paula. Fico feliz por você me dar esta oportunidade de a gente trocar figurinhas. A questão da raiva da esquerda para com o agro é absolutamente, completamente, totalmente ideológica. O homem da terra, seja ele um fazendeiro, ou um sitiante, é um homem profundamente conservador, um homem que administra uma fábrica à céu aberto e que todos os dias pede à Deus Pai e aos seus santos protetores que os ajudem, que mandem água mas sem ser em excesso, que não mande geada para queimar as suas plantações, enfim, ele tem que ser um homem profundamente religioso e a esquerda obviamente odeia esse tipo de gente. Acresce que o homem da terra é profundamente ligado à sua propriedade, aquilo que é seu, que ele herdou dos avós e vai transferir para seus netos, e a esquerda fala em coletivização das fazendas, expropriação e invasão de terras, então é óbvio que o agro sempre foi e sempre será contra a esquerda, e a esquerda sabe que para ela prosperar ela precisa liquidar o agro. Acho que essa é a razão principal da esquerda ser contra o agro. Agora, sobre a questão da escravidão, cara Paula, eu simplifiquei um tema que deve ser possivelmente a questão social mais complexa da história da humanidade, ou seja, como integrar no tecido social de uma determinada sociedade ex-escravos. Estou convencido de que a única solução para esse mega problema é o tempo, são as gerações que irão se sucedendo, e com o tempo os escravos, ou melhor dizendo aqueles cujos ascendentes foram escravos. É fácil fazer uma conta aterradora, cara Paula: O Brasil foi fundado em 1500 e aboliu a escravidão em 1888, ou seja o Brasil praticou a escravidão por 388 anos. O Brasil tem 524 anos de história, e 388 significa que em 75% de toda a nossa história o Brasil praticou a escravidão. Ou seja, somente nos útlimos 25% de nossa história o Brasil aboliu a escravidão. Isso é muito pouco tempo para se curar todas as chagas sociais produzidas pela escravidão. Tem um outro aspecto também muito importante. Os europeus entre os séculos 16 e 19 trouxeram 8 milhões de escravos para o continente americano. E desses 8 milhões, 5,5 milhões vieram para o Brasil. Ou seja, os europeus enviaram para todos os outros países americanos escravos da África, e são 35 países no continente americano, e 34 desses países receberam 2,5 milhões de escravos distribuidos entre eles. Mas o Brasil recebeu 5,5 milhões (75% de todos os escravos), e quando o Brasil se tornou independente, a gente tinha 20 escravos para cada cidadão livre. O nosso patriarca com justa razão dizia para Dom Pedro que era inviável construir um país onde a maioria esmagadora da população era composta por escravos. E esse foi sem dúvida um problema gigantesco. E o Brasil era um país pobre, sem recursos. Os ingleses acabaram com a escravidão na primeira metade do século 19, e obrigou os proprietários a libertá-los, mas os indenizou. E como a Inglaterra já era naquela época o pais mais rico e poderoso do planeta, o governo britânico pode se dar o luxo de mandar libertar os escravos e indenizar os proprietarios, e para isso a Coroa Britânica teve que fazer um empréstimo gigantesco, que ela só terminou de pagar por volta de 1970, mais ou menos. No caso brasileiro, a solução foi drástica. A nossa grande Princesa Isabel sacrificou a nossa monarquia, para acabar com a escravidão, e ela acabou com a escravidão na mão grande, na porrada. Mandou os proprietários de escravos soltarem os escravos sem receberem indenização, o que era um atentado às leis do país, porque durante a escravidão, era perfeitamente legal as pessoas comprarem escravos, e quem comprava pagava impostos ao estado, em suma, era um negócio perfeitamente legal. E de repente, aparece uma princesa louca que rasga as leis, viola a constituição, e estupra os proprietários de terra, literalmente colocando a mão no bolso de todos aqueles que tinham comprado legalmente escravos e pagado os impostos. Isso aí tem um nome: roubo. Roubo puro e simples. Mas não tinha outra solução para esse gravíssimo problema. Os fazendeiros contra-atacaram apoiando a derrubada da monarquia e a implantação da república, e o novo governo republicano simploesmente declarou que era ilegal ter escravo e quem tivesse teria que soltá-lo ou ser preso, e como eles criaram um novo sistema jurídico, os proprietários de terra não poderiam contratar advogados para reclamar uma indenização, que juridicamente não tinha como ser negada. Todo proprietário de escravos poderia demandar uma indenização, e ganharia a causa, e o estado quebraria porque jamais teria condições de indenizá-los. Mas o advento da república resolveu essa questão. E os escravos brasileiros simplesmente foram deixados ao Deus dará, sem ter para onde ir, sem ter onde se abrigar, enfim, foi uma história de terror e de muito sofrimento, mas a vida deles era tão difícil quando eram escravos que eles sairam no lucro, porque pelo menos eles não tinham que tomar chicotada todos os dias, etc. E foram literalmente expulsos do campo e escorraçados para as cidades, e dai a origem das favelas. A história é complicadíssima, mas estamos avançando, e acho até que estamos mais adiantados nessa questão da integração do negro à nossa sociedade do que os americanos. Mas acho que só no século 22 as chagas da escravidão serão finalmente fechadas e curadas. É isso. Gostei muito dessa oportunidade de trocar essas ideias com você!

Fyi... the productivity of the American worker isn't as high as the numbers indicate. Productivity is measured by the work of full-time employees. But a vast number of US companies, especially high tech, use "contractors." Although these people are technically self-employed and are not employees of the firm, they are treated and expected to perform as if they were full-time employees. And because they aren't employees, they aren't counted when it comes to productivity. In other words, if a company has 50 employees and 50 contractos, a total of 100 workers, and the company makes $1 per worker giving it a profit of $100... productivity is then calculated taking into account only the 50 employees. Thus, the productivity goes from $1 per worker to $2 per employee. Productivity figures of US companies, and by extention the country's, are higher than they should be.

Excellent video and precise overview. Indeed the main challenges in Brasil are lack of security, tax complexities, conflict of interest of some sectors (leading into unnecessary subsidies), poor education level (leading to a mass of people being dependent on the "system") among other issues. The good side is that Brasil in general likes to flirt with precipice but at the last minute... never jumps into it . The good side is that the abundance of natural resources, gives Brasil some independence and resilience on geopolitical games. But I believe there will not be a super power in the next 50 or 100 years (still learning slowly and stepping back when corrupt and populist governments are elected).

"Will Brazil Finally Awaken?" no. My great-grandad had great hopes coming here after the Napoleonic wars before the Siege of Antwerp, he helped the spread of sociocratic values in Brazil. My grandpa was a electrical engineer in the most prestigious university of his state when the atom bomb happened and he had great hopes for Brazil, my dad worked his whole life in the federal police and had great hopes until he retired and tried to leave with our family from this place, before passing away he asked me not to join the federal police because "something went wrong with the police in the late 80s, the new guys are sociopaths" and he was the second generation of federal police in the nation (60s). You may project your routine beliefs to other nation's army but I know it deeply, should the order to siege every capital in Brazil come in one morning there would be a million dead by lunch and The People would practice cannibalisms by afternoon.

PART FOUR So, the question is: why on Earth would Brazil bother to build the bomb and the nuclear submarine? And the answer is very simple and easy to understand. The French Guiana. And the United States. In this order. The French Guiana is not a French colony. It has the same status of Alaska or Hawaii. These two are not part of continental US and yet they are states of the United States. The French Guiana is part of Metropolitan France, the French Guiana is a French Department (the French, being the French do not divide their regions by states or provinces as every other nation do, they divide their different regions by “departments”. And the French Guiana is a French Department. That places the French Guiana in a very special situation, because the French Guiana is not part of the American nations, but a European enclave in the American continent. That means Brazil shares 750 kilometers long land border not with a French colony but rather with France itself. That is to say, Brazil shares common border with a European country, which incidentally has nuclear capacity, and it is a very important Nato country. And those idiots - the French can be very much idiotic - have been very vocal in the past 3 decades or so heavily criticizing Brasil for destroying the Amazon rainforest, and that the Brazilian rainforest (which represents 50% of the Brazilian territory) is not a Brazilian asset but the asset of the whole mankind, and if Brazil does not protect the Amazon Rainforest or if Brazil cannot protect the Amazon Rainforest, then it is the sacred duty of the civilized nations to invade it, and seize it from us, bloody Brazilians, for the sake and good of mankind of course. This is exactly the formula NATO used to find an excuse to invade and destroy Iraq, that Sadam was developing weapons of mass destruction and if the “world community” would allow Sadam to conclude such weapons of mass destruction, Sadam, being Sadam, would use them to murder millions of innocent civilians. And to prevent Sadam from using weapons of mass destruction they invaded Iraq and murdered million of innocent civilians in the process to prevent Sadam from murdering millions of innocent civilians. And in the end, the world saw that Sadam did not have weapons of mas destruction at all. It was just a lie, a convenient lie to be used as an excuse to invade and destroy Iraq (and that is the cause of the mess we see now in the Middle East). But in 2019, that frog eater, that lily white of Emannuel Macron declared with all the words in a public statement that the NATO countries were reconsidering the Brazilian sovereignty over the Amazon Rainforest. That stupid, unbelievable remark, was just an inch short of becoming a full war declaration against Brazil. But the final drop in the cup was the United States reaction, which is the commander-in-chief of NATO. Washington remained silent. If Washington had immediately reproached that French lily white publicly, saying that NATO was not reconsidering the Brazilian sovereignty over 50% of its own territory, and that the United States would never allow NATO to invade an American country, bla bla bla, maybe Brazil would not have built the bomb. But since both France and the US remained silent and that French declaration remained unchallenged, we decided that it was about time for us to be prepared for a conflict with NATO. And hence the bomb. Now, you could arguably retort that we Brazilians might have over reacted just because that frog eater made a silly declaration. But then there is the Zimmerman Telegram. Because of just a silly and harmless telegram sent by the German Chancellery to the German Ambassador in Mexico City, the United States declared war to Germany and joined the fray in the First World War in 1917.
