I can`t believe you just called that the Highway of Death. You know there was a real Highway of Death (Highway 80) in Kuwait, and thousands of people died on it, right. It`s almost insulting. Maybe you`re just ignorant of that.

"noted by the CIA 6% of Brazilian land is arable. While 48.8% of Indian land is arable.

so either the cia have made a serious error or Brazil really does not have the most arable land.

Even the China and USA have more net arable land."

Well, if India, China and US has so much arable land why they don't use it to produce food? Don't let Brasil do all the work...

s noted by the CIA 6% of Brazilian land is arable. While 48.8% of Indian land is arable.

In the US, there is a growing awareness of the cruelty of "factory farming" animals; the public is learning that the animals we eat are forced to live a horrific existence in unnatural, unsanitary conditions. It is extremely upsetting to read that Brazil has adopted the U.S.'s inhumane factory farming practices, which will likely flourish in Brazil, unchecked by animal welfare organizations.

Did i forget to mention that Brazil also have 20% of all fresh water in the Planet? And whrn you go to a gastation, you will find, Gasoline with 25% ethanol,pure ethanol, natural gas and the biodiesel ? All they need is education,get rid of corruption and better pay. Finally brazilians are starting to believe in themselves. They never really had a war like countries like USA,Russia,China,Japan,France,England,Germany and others, so the need for Patriotism was never there, only during soccer games is where they became Patriotics. Game was over and they home again... always wanting to be an american or european... but the mentality is changing and is changing fast for a nation that is the size of USA and 190 million people. Friendly people that welcome foreigners with a smile and not deportation. God is Brazilian... and they have a rich mix of nationalities in their blood, there you will find peolple of different backgrounds such as arabs, europeans, japoneses,

africans and hundreds of religions all living in peace. Travell to Brazil and discover a nations that even know crime in Brazil is rampant,the brazilians love thy neighbor, wether your muslim,jew,christian,mormom or anything else. Amem !!! Thats' what Washington have to do, stop kissing ass to Israel and the Saudis. Treat each country and religion as one. Amem!!! God bless America,Brazil and the rest of the world !!!

Brazil with it's abundance of land,food,good terrain, natural resources and our beloved sun, will rule the world in the next 20 years, all without having to invade nations for oil like Mr.America or Our Democratic Russians...

This article is about Brazil, land, farming, raising produce, feeding people and raising the standard of living in Brazil. Most people, you will find, aren't interested in hearing/reading about your militant, left-winged hatred for the U.S. We can see bias so easily because your kind never writes about the U.S.S.R, who's empire was made up of over-run nations that never wanted to be a part of them. This is in contrast to the U.S. who did not keep the Phillipines, Cuba (which we won from Spain) or any land we beat in a war. As far as the 'populist' governments you refer to I am quite sure you would add Casto to that list and that would be a big laugh if it wasn't so pathetic. Here's a sorry individual that won't allow a vote for another government and will pass the tourch to his brother! They ruined Cuba!! They were big stuff when Russia was pumping $9 billion dollars into their economy a year. It's real easy to play Santa Claus when someone else is picking up the slack for your failed economic policies. Now that Reagan, yes REAGAN brought down the Iron Cutain, Cuba's sugar and other pruduce doesn't have a guaranteed market anymore and Europe will most likely produce their own sugar with sugar beats as the U.S. does in Minnesota, North Dakota and elsewhere. I personally know Cubans and Castro wasn't elected!! WHether Cuba had problems or not it isn't up to one man to take control of a nation and say he's doing it for the people. He, like all Banana Republic dictators, is out for himself whether it be financially, hunger for power or because he has visions of grandeur. He knows he failed and that his regime will not ever get it back together again but he still won't let it go. So much for 'the people'! Now we have this moron in Venezuela who's trying to be another Castro and ain't cutting it. Suppossedly he is for the people too! As soon as he started his anti-AAmerican sentiment I knew we had another Bimbo on our hands. I also know Venezuelans and most are quite ashamed of this small-minded little boy who stole the election through his military connections. It's funny how you lefties are so down on the military unless it's an anti-American military. Then it's OK for a 'General' to seize power and run the country. You guys can't stick to your story. It changes accordong to the political leaning of the person in power. That is why you, yourself, are a joke! The internet and Talk Radio are exposing more and more of your kind, daily. Go away, your lies and hatred are getting on our nerves.
