    It's been breaking down for decades. The Favelas don't do them any favors. (Shanty town where life has no value other than what you have to give them at gunpoint)

    Venezuela as been staggering down the same path for ages. Their oil industry's daily output, mostly to the USA has been failing for a couple of years now as the refineries there stop work for a variety of good reasons. When you have workers too hungry to do a good job, they won't bother showing up. They are too busy hunting.

    Strike to continue despite government actions to decrease fuel prices in 15%. Taxes still account for 50% of fuel prices.

    This channel is webcasting news every hour to 300K subscribers.

    Rumors that strike is spreading to south america countries, paraguai, argentina, uruguai, chile and portugal.

    This movement wants to replace the politicians with military people... But I wonder how they plan on doing that... Do they expect the military to fix the economy? Time will tell...

    Was reading something online saying that the Brazilian constitution does not say that the military can overthrow the government after 7 days of strike... This strike has been going on for 8 days now and the government is still in power... And I think they will remain in power... maybe till the elections in October this year...

    Ga is begining to flow to gas stations, but this is not the end. Farmers are joining to the strike and blocking gas stations.
    Very unlikeable that troops will overthrow government. Troops isn't the solution, just education can solve this massive problem and will take decades.
    Brazil já era, is gone, salvem-se quem puder.

     
    Rocks Thanks this.

    I have been hearing this thing about "only education..." blah, blah, blah... for decades... :rolleyes: Since when I was in high school... and I totally lost my hope in that country since the early 80's... Since than I realized that Brasil had no solution... Yeah... Brasil ja era... is gone... it has been like that for decades... that's why I left it... and every time I go there I realize why I left...

    Hey Mr. @BRTrucker ... where have you gone? What happened with that "revolution"? Last time I read about it, the government made some half promises... the truckers went back to work and the Petrobras workers were going to strike...

    Oi Rocks, era fogo de palha. Ficará para outra oportunidade. Tudo no Brasil é uma zona, inclusive os protestos sem liderança e sem pauta.

    Segue o Brazil zil zil. Cuide-se na estrada.

     
    Rocks Thanks this.
