Talk:Economy of Brazil

National accounts
I wouldn't mind having some of the flow numbers, and especially the increase numbers, like GDP growth, for a few years back, one year really doedn't say a lot. Of course, you would like to have a chart of especially GDP growth rate.--Jerryseinfeld 20:40, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Hmmm someone was playing around changing words into godzilla and the like but as i have a mastercopy i fixed it relatively quickly. Replayee

This page needs updates. Angra II Nuclear Plant has been in operation for years and we only import 12% of our oil, not 33%.

Oil Self-Sufficiency
The data concerning oil imports/exports and consumption/production is obsolete. Normally, I wouldn't much mind, but seeing as the country has recently reached a consumption/production ratio where it actually produces more than it uses, I'd say corrections are in order.

GDP growth data updated
The previous numbers were from 2005; now the table shows the GDP growh in 2006, according to the new IBGE methodology.jgsodre

Oil and Andres
Brazil has become self-sufficient in oil, it is even beginning to export it. Therefore I think the text regarding oil should be updated. As for Andres, read it carefully and you will see it mentions poverty and regional disparities within Brazil, such as that existent between Northern and Sourthern states. It is not an over optimistic article, it is a realistic one, which talks about the well-known difficulties Brazil had and still experiences plus the not so well-known side of the country. It is good because many still don't know how advanced Brazil is in some sectors.
