parable of the ant and the cicada. There was a singing inset who lived off the work of the ant.
The ant worked and never saw the results of its sweat. The cicada, sent one of their kind called IMF to teach the ants how to solve their problems. To no avail.
Ants kept working, and were called lazy, disorganized not educated, dirty and bandidos.
One day in 1994 the ants resolved to end their problems and implemented measures to solve their problems. At first they started well, but it was a false start, by 1999 they were again in the lurch. But they persevered. 29% of interest rates, while the cicada brought their to zero.
They didn’t consumed. The cicadas were consuming com gusto. The cicadas thought they were the champions and they had their trophies to show for their achievements. But it was those football matches they play only among themselves the weekend at the club called G-7, rules were very cavalier, you don’t have to be fit. You can have even a hangover, and they had champions and winners.
Then one day in August 2007, after 61 years of fantasy island, reality caught up with the cicadas. They came up to play their football thinking that they were going to win again. But on the other side of the field, Ronaldinho, Kaka and Robinho were warming up.
Blood splatters the place. In cicada’s land FED and ECB are trying to salvage the economies. In ant land: Bovespa opens high goes over 70.000 points, exporters afraid of flood of USD entering the country. |
