you just described the whole brazil there mate.

I don't know, your shithole looks less shitholic then mine. But until we are a nation, we'll be shit, because no-one cares about the country, just about themselves.

One of the reasons i'm moving to france next year

What with all them frenchies?

agreed! if you're moving to europe, why not ingerland? at least can you watch wenger fuck our team season after season

not to mention that they can brew a quality ale and there are pubs in every fucking corner! seriously, why would you prefer to move to france mate? they can't even play proper football there!

Rio you can meet all of us lot of you come to the UK.seriously though, if you aren't minted or willing to live in the middle of nowhere, France is a bad choice.

I'm not moving to france at random, I have to study either there or in Germany for my masters. Thing is my french is fluent and my german is dodgy at best. another plus is that i can keep playing rugby ( waiting for the banter).

I would totally do my masters in the uk, but it would be pointless for my career.

I'll most likely be in Rennes, which is kinda close to london, 3,4h away. and there's the upside of the french birds being much better looking then the british ones

porque hables en espanol?

But Rio, mate, stay in Lille. It's a nice place, decent weather, and not far at all from London. Like an hour on the Eurostar. Easy to get to Arsenal games

I worked with a woman from St Pauli. She was fantastic. Funny, relaxed, just a great person overall. Quite good looking for her age too.

Sooooo my only experience with StP has been good

I was reading that Brazil is a prospering economy and has one of the biggest reserves in oil and natural minerals, putting it alongside India as an emerging world economy. Is that true or just media propaganda selling it big with both a world cup and olympic tournaments being held there?

just like arsenal: the team of the future, self sustainable, doesn't buy superstars (makes them), full of young prospects that will deliver the world in the future, but all they do now is get beaten by swansea. and then you realise the future patrick vieira is actually fucking diaby.

that's brazil mate.

i'll believe all this "emerging economy" shit once i stop seeing children dying of hunger begging on the streets while a few men drive 3 million dollar ferraris. i don't know if it's still like that, but we had the worst wealth distribution (less leveled) in the world a few years ago, worse than any country in africa, and it seems to me things are only getting worse.

a country that doesn't give a fuck about education like we don't will never leave the shit we're into.

It's not entirely talk, the country has improved in the last 10 years or so, a new middle class was created, the economy is doing much, much better.

But on the other hand, our infra structure is shit, our public education and health systems are shameful and we have a massive housing deficit.

It's like the country was stalled since the military took over in 64' and got jolted back to life in 94' with the real. But in this 30 years most of the public institutions have failed, we had massive migration to only two cities ( Rio and São Paulo) that are now almost impossible to live in, and you can't get a train to no fucking where, because the automotive companies lobby in the 70' have shutted them off.

Long way to go before being considered a force to be reckoned, imo. No sense of nation around here, too much me, not enough us.

Of course we're better then India, but that's just because there are too many of them Still, think in general their education is better then ours.

But if you are a geologist, engineer or something like that, you can get a good job here because there aren't any.

EDIT - Bg was talking about wealth distribution and I went for the GINI data about it. We were the 3rd most unequal country on earth with a GINI index of 54 in 2008, now we're in the botton 20 with 52.5. Just to compare, Germany is a 27, being 0 equal pay to all and 1 just one bloke with all the money.

So yeah, bottom 20 out of 180 countries is pretty shit.

Sounds like South Africa tbh
