Is Brazil a rich country?

巴西是一个富裕的国家吗?

Leonardo Ruoso

Originally Answered: Is Brazil a poor country?

Brazil is not poor, but it’s not among the richest. Wealthy is quite concentrated on the south and southeast as the industrialization happened during the coffee cycle, having S?o Paulo, Paraná and Minas Gerais leading in coffe production. After industrialization financial capitalism has helped to concentrated yet more in S?o Paulo. So if you take S?o Paulo alone it would be one of the richest countries in the world, by all dimensions.

Also, Lula’s Brazil has changed globally from a destination of resources from charity to become a donor, but there’s a lot to be done when it comes to wealth redistribution.

Brazil has skipped land reform, housing reform and many important reforms that would help it become a truly wealthy nation and every time he country is walking towards that path, yet slowly and moderately, some sort of coup or political turmoil takes place impeding it to be achieved and putting us again as a proxy nation for US or UK —if you go far back in our history.

回答1：

巴西并不贫穷，但也不是最富有的国家之一。

在环绕（盛产）咖啡的环圈进行的工业化，使得巴西的富人主要集中在南部和东南部.

圣保罗、巴拉那和米纳斯吉拉斯州在咖啡生产方面处于领先地位。

工业化后，金融资本主义进一步集中在圣保罗。

因此，如果只算圣保罗，那么巴西将是世界上最富有的国家之一。

另外，卢拉领导下的巴西在全球经济圈里，已经从一个提供资源的国家变成了一个给慈善机构捐赠、奉献的国家，

但是，巴西在财富再分配方面还有很多工作要做。

巴西已经跳过了土地改革、住房改革和许多重要的改革,

这将帮助它成为一个真正富有的国家.

巴西的每一次改革，都是谨慎而循序渐进的，

如果你深入了解我们的历史，你会发现：

政变或政治震荡都会阻碍我们国家的改革，从而使得我们再次论为英美的棋子.

It depends. What is a rich country? Can a country be rich? The answer in contingent on the criteria.That being said, there are things we can say, such as:Brazil produces lots os natural resources, be it through mining (iron, gold and many other minerals), or agriculture (soy and cattle are huge in the country). In this sense it is rich.

As a country with a large population, Brazil has a big economy, and a huge amount of goods are consumed and traded, so the people os the country moves a lot of cash on a daily basis.

On the other hand:1. Most of the population is poor and struggles to make ends meet. A big part is chronically indebted to the point they can’t even have a credit card. The middle classes are below the average of truly rich countries.

2. The businesses, especially the smaller ones, go bankrupt at an alarming rate, and free initiative is risky investiment.

3. The government finances are also chronically problematic, and the budget is in a nightmarish situation.

So, even if one wants to say Brazil is rich, it is necessary to aknowledge this wealth does not translate to the citizens, which are mostly poor.

回答2：

视情况而定。

什么是富国? 一个国家能富有吗? 答案依标准而定。

话虽如此，我们还是可以这样说:

巴西生产大量的自然资源，无论是通过采矿(铁、金和许多其他的矿物)，

还是农业(巴西的大豆、黄牛产量非常巨大)。

从这个意义上说，巴西是富国.

作为一个人口众多的国家，巴西有着十分庞大的经济，

消费、交易的商品数量十分巨大，

所以这个国家的人们每天都在交易着大量的资金.

另一方面:

1. 大多数人很穷，在努力维持生计。

很大一部分人长期负债，以至于他们甚至无法拥有信用卡。

中产阶级的财富低于真正富裕国家的平均水平。

2. 企业，尤其是那些规模较小的企业，正以惊人的速度走向破产。

3. 政府的财务状况也长期存在问题，预算也处于噩梦般的境地。

因此，即使有人想说巴西是富裕的，

也有必须要知道，巴西国家财富并没有转化为民富，巴西国民大多是穷人.
