"here in Brazil (native)"

Ah, that explains your negativism against the Brazilian president.

For the benefit of the foreign audience: President Dilma faces fierce opposition from the Brazilian elite, because of her party's socialist reforms, in a country that historically always catered to the elites. Anything that the president does (good or bad) faces opposition, pretty similar to the opposition President Obama faces in the US.

Note how the commenter above does not say a word about the speech itself. It's all about paying so much taxes and not getting the speed rail.

(also a native-Brazilian here who lived 8 years in the US and 2 in China)

So only foreigners can complain?

I did not get the speed rail or electricity But I did get 12 SOCCER STADIUM that will do no good to the country..

If I am 'elite' damn... this country is in very baaaaad shape

Now comes our 'nationalists' team... Glad you learn in China

No, I never said only foreigners can complain. And I am far from nationalist: Like I said, I am normally the first one to criticize Brazil, and I was accused of being "unpatriotic" on every country I lived, so I am pretty sure my views are balanced.

I am just explaining to the (mostly foreigner) audience that your comments are connected to the local Brazilian politics, but this is not the point of this discussion.

We hear you and believe you are correct about the problems in Brazil. However, its not really the point of this discussion... why I think you're receiving some negativity.
