Wealth re-distribution in the USA [rah, rah, rah]

you could also say the same about Iran, lots of poorer classes love
Mahmoud or Venezuela

Dilma has an uphill battle, getting out of Lula's shadow, large
learning curve, and tackling crippling corruption, and an unwieldy
coalition. luckily she dumped her chief of staff. all things being
relative one could argue that corruption isn't as bad as in those
other three BRIC states. suppose we'll have to wait and see. but let
us remember Lula and his successor have made it policy to make nice
with the finance people which surprised some of their supporters. a
necessary evil one might say but w/o the submissiveness of someone
like Obama fortunately
good to see more women in power in latin america (viz Argentina).
we just need less of the Chavezs and Castros w/o returning to
military/family elites

rich
