<<As more and more people in China, India>> I disagree, YZ.  We can't wait for the people from India, China, Indonesia start to consume more!!! There is a glut of all kind of raw materials, prices kept high only because we have cocoa cartel, coffee cartel, tin cartel, etc cartel etc. That notwithstanding, we can kick in some more if needed. Super competitive position 2,5 crops a year in the center-west. 
  The plans are already there: a road across the jungle, dig a tunnel through the Andes and load the ships in Callao Peru's harbor ship from there instead of going through the Panama canal. Fuck the environmentalists and the World Bank.
  We are not seating on our hands. Market up there will be funds for the infrastructure investment. 
  If insufficient, the inefficient transformation of grass into meat goes, and we plant grain on the whole are now where cattle -that has never see a person- roam free. That will take care of the whole thing. 
  Let then get the money, it's all we have been waiting for. meanwhile, there we go fighting subsidies... |
