> a neutral bank in an agreement where one party controls almost 3 times the assets > neutral anon, i know the school system is pretty bad in brazil, but i truly do not understand how you can see the data and possibly think this is a good idea for brazil. if you want brazil to live in economic freedom from the us, fine. but how does brazil expect to "free" itself by immediately handing the country over to china? how does that make any sense? all the economic issue that currently exist with the us which apparently necessitate the formation of brics are just going to become issues with china.   ...which is exactly why brics won't work out for brazil (or russia, or india, or anyone who isn't the china). g7 lets the us hold the rest of the members by the balls. replace the us with china and france with brazil and you've got brics. the one major complain brics nations have is that the us has to much financial power, but now it's just going to be the chinese with too much power.
