I think I'm the only one who likes McCarthy's art

@sophia89: I'll try to read them at night because I have to do other things by now, but I think in MIT's magazine there was a simillar article, but I didn't find it.

I got what you said, indeed they're "criminals", but just like the hatians in Brazil after they're living in my country and having opportunities to work, I have no problem with them.

I live in Brazil and the feminist organisation have a lot of strength here, our Universities (the majority of our humanities' professors are left winged, because almost all of thme fought against the right winged dictatorship that caused Brazil's financial crisis and was one of the most repressive governments we've ever had) are the biggest supporters, thankfully the media and the majority of the public figures also are feminists or support most of their thoughts. The problems are the evangelicalists and the conservatives who always try to diminish and harm the movement, and they are the majority of our congress. And Eduardo Cunha is the president of our Chamber of Deputies and he already done two illegal maneuvers against our democracy, he is one of our biggest problems. Luckily, he's involved with Operation: Car Wash, the biggest economic scandal since Mensalão, and I hope he gets arrested.

I'm more right-winged than left-winged and even I admit that Keynes saved the american economy, and some of its ideas saved the USA from 2008's crisis. Even MIT had an article saying that USA needs to implant more Keynes' ideas to its economy. Just curious, I've read the same argument in Rothbard's book and some Mises' articles, is that your source?

@rpgesus: So any illegal is a criminal? There are a lot of hatians coming to Brazil illegally I haven't seen any of them commiting a crime and most of them are working on jobs that either most of people don't want to do or we don't have the specific workers to do it. Mexico is not sending their unwanted to your country, the same thing happens in the USA. Do you know how hard it is to live in certain areas in Mexico? The Cartel rapes and murders lots of people, and the police most of times is bribed by them and the citizens doesn't have any defense, there are a lot of vigilante acts in Mexico due to their situation. Most people that go to the USA from Mexico are normal people who seek a job and better life quality. The only effective way to stop the drug business is to do the same measures that Uruguay did, that's almost a fact, if you build walls the drugs will keep entering your country, there are many other ways to do that and there's a lot of americans interested in the drug business (the profit is absurd). Trump is basically saying that the majority of Mexicans (even the illegal ones) are the people who ruin the USA, that's racist and not true.

About Mexico paying the walls, why don't the USA give to Mexico their original territory, aka the most profitable territory in America or even in the world nowadays?

And no, I haven't heard anything about Hillary being a criminal.

@rpgesus: “[Mexico is] sending people that have lots of problems, and they are bringing those problems to us. They are bringing drugs, and bringing crime, and their rapists.”; “I will build a great, great wall on our southern border and I will make Mexico pay for that wall.”; “According to Bill O’Reilly, 80% of all the shootings in New York City are blacks—if you add Hispanics that figure goes to 98%, 1% white.”.

I don't even hate him, I just can't understand why people would vote on a racist candidate and a celebrity that isn't the best businessman as everyone thinks. I still need to read a lot about the other candidates, but from what I've seen and read, Hillary is the best choice for your country.

@rpgesus: I was wrong about Trump's oil, it was a fake report and I didn't notice. But still, Lula was a metallurgist and he got rich due to speeches, not for his business. Seems that people want to vote for Trump only because he is a good businessman and they think he can run a country due to his personal wealth, and that is ridiculous to me.

When I thought the rightists from Brasil were too conservative I had no idea about the USA ones. Voting for Trump is so ridiculous that I think people are kidding when they say that, how can you say that someone who calls immigrants rapists and murderers is a good business man? Those kind of statements damage USA's foreign image, therefore, it'll also damage future deals.

For example, the USA were Brasil's most important economic partner for a long time, Bush (father and son) damaged a lot of their partnership (due to some rude statements, the Iraq war, FTAA, and etc) and China is now our most important partner. Obama has a really good foreign image, he made some good deals with Brasil, and seems to me he was a better president than Bush.

As a foreigner I'd say Hillary is much better than Trump, voting for someone who is a millionaire is absolutely ridiculous. A quick example, the biggest millionaire from Brazil in 2008 recently faced bankruptcy, and he had a lot of oil businesses (simillar to Trump's).

Chris Cyborg can, at least at her peak she could. I'm not so sure about now, but probably.
