That's American, but South. If there's a thread for it, it's this one.
Agreed, jax!
@Barulheira: I don't think everyone would agree with your estimation of Lula's successes… ![Smiley :)](https://dndsanctuary.eu/smileys/myopera/smile.gif)
To remind you'all:We already know how it works. Lula hadn't had any significant political background, and the expectations on his new administration as President of Brazil were quite disturbing. On the first weeks of his administration, it became clear that it wouldn't be as bad as it was being expected.
Now, several years after it finished, we've become aware that it was really disastrous.
And I specially like your preface (admittedly prompted by ersi's comment…but I'll take it as "stand alone," since that's how it's usually used!
) "We already know how it works": Indeed we do. The previous administration is responsible for all the failures of the current administration! ![Smiley :)](https://dndsanctuary.eu/smileys/myopera/smile.gif)
Convenient, for elected officials; not so much, for anyone else…
(But when you elect a union organizer and official you have to expect a certain level of corruption, no?
If you don't think so, you are ill-educated.)
So: How are things going in Brazil, now that Lula is out? (You know: Things like who's in, what's changed and what are the plans being touted?)
