There is a famous quote (of contested origins) that "Brazil is a great nation of the future, and always will be" and its so true. Many sources show that Brazil boomed until around 1980 and has stagnated since then. See FRED series RGDPL2BRA625NUPN. China (for example) is now far ahead of Brazil.
I have spent some time in Brazil and liked it. But it was poor. Lula won't fix it. Bolsonaro didn't fix it. Brazil can't be fixed. Brazil was a mess (and poor) in 1910. Brazil was a mess (and poor) in 2010. Brazil will be a mess (and poor) in 2110.
This was a very helpful look at aspects of Brazilian politics and society. My thanks to Ms. Amaral.
