Read an article on Brazil in The Guardian. The real reason Dilma Rousseff’s enemies want her impeached
A few powerful rich families controlling the media, ruling party with a majority preventing investigations of corruption and unfair elections, millions of people impoverished while the major corporations earn record profits. Sounds like Korea.
After every election, the Korean media tries to back credibility by seeming to be impartial until the next elections which is the Presidential election at the end of the next year. In the recent parlimentary elections, the media, government and ruling party tried to blame the bad economy on the opposition, stating they blocked important legislation. They succeeded with this in past elections, but not the last one. They just barely lost their majority.
Bad economy? When Korea had 6-7% growth, the media and ruling politicians said that the economy was bad and that we needed to make sacrifices and lower the corporate tax rate. We still have 3% growth rate and they say the economy is bad. Everyone knows that as an economy matures and gets larger, growth slows. So, what is all this negativity and blaming the opposition about?
How will they approach the next Presidential elections? We will know around this time next year.
