When Will The Blue Market Be Suspended?

I make my living in Pesos and Dollars. I'm so confused!

Ha,ha..the best of the twos plus an Esposa Brasileira !

Brazil's net worth is the same as Google's, Chile the same as Costco (the warehouse store). Argentina? Who knows? Dunken Donuts?

The Brazilian population is app 201 million. At the going rate for slaves, the population alone has a value of 6.03 trillion US$. Add minerals, trees, oil & gas, cattle, etc., and fertile soil to be exported to desert countries and you at least triple the value of Brazil.

Much of Brazil is tropical rainforest, which has very poor soils.

Don't forget they exiled Camberiu to Argentina which probably increased Brazilian productivity by a factor of 10.

Not if soil and trees - remember the trees! - are used to produce humus. Moved to a more temperate climate this combo is valuable.

Tropical rainforest soils are generally nutrient-poor, leached by the rain. The nutrients in the biomatter are recycled quickly and directly back into the trees. That's the reason rainforest peoples practice swidden ("slash-and-burn") agriculture, to make the nutrients available to their crops.

Cerrado is not TRF.

Cerrado is not TRF.

Does that mean that there is no population, no minerals, oil & gas, cattle, etc. in Brasil?

I think you are focusing on the small export of trees and soil to Yemen and Quatar instead of considering the big picture.
