Yeah. Right. 2010 to 2015. Add ten years plus $300 mil and MAYBE the deal goes through.

Incrível a vocação do brasileiro para a hipocrisia e ignorância de uma maneira geral. Foi-se o tempo em que estudante quando se engajava era em causas sociais. Agora a galera só quer saber de balada, emitiví, orkut, breja e muita alienação. Nas escolas e faculdades o único raciocínio válido que conseguem ter é estudar pra tirar nota, isso quando não colam nas provas. Senhoras e senhores, estamos vendo uma geração que se perde cada vez mais nesta época em que somos bombardeados de informações muitas vezes contraditórias, mas não são estimulados a usar o senso crítico e os bons modos Ainda bem que a Uniban não está na Palestina, porque, pelo que vimos, se aquele pessoal tivesse pedras nas mãos, duvido que Jesus conseguiria evitar a execução da loira sem noção. Mas fica outra pergunta no ar: será que se tratasse de algum político, desses que não se acanham em desviar quantias enormes em negociatas e que são mais nocivos à nação do que uma sainha provocativa, a recepção seria a mesma?

Outsider, what does your comment have to do with the land swap between UP and NM? You best stay in Los Angeles or anywhere in CA, you fit right in.

Hmmm I am mixed on this. On one hand, the reality of our world as we know it, trade between the US and our southern neighbors will happpen, so why not add efficiencies ot the process? On that hand, sounds good! Why get in the way of "progress"?

On the other hand, we already have the maquila zone where they exploit people's desperation to recruit rediculously cheap labor for the sake of keeping businesses competitive and prices of products lower. I will always feel someone who works 40 hours or more a week deserves an abode with running water, a roof that doesn't leak and the ability to live without constant fear of being gunned down (IE - living standards not universal for those we exploit in maquiladoras). This would do nothing to help those workers, and in fact, might increase the desire of companies to exploit even more desperate people by relocating to maquila zones both here and in other countries.

If the UP and the State of Richardson are involved, the public will pay and pay and pay and . . . . .
