I (probably we) don't have time to go over statistics now. But just here in the UAE, we have people from India, Bangladesh, paquistan, and some other dozen countries lining-up to get less than the 240 dolares of Brazil. The number of illegals goes for the thousands in this tiny country, due to the desesperation to go back to their home countries. The world bank classifies Brazil as an "upper middle income" with a reason. What would be the minimum wage of those countries below?
I'll not deny the huge problems and suffering of the poor brazilians. To tell the true, even annoys me to see Brazilians buying luxury houses here in Dubai just to have something to say during their country club meetings; But dedication to point out the negative sides in some particular places, for whatever reason, doesn't seems nice either.
