THE WAY OF COPA

Danifestacion in front of the Pernambuco Arena

I beg my readers to treat a subject different from the usual. You can not remain silent, would be one such cowardice, larger than they are doing with the Brazilian people especially the Pernambucanos. The legacy that any government is to leave their State are schools, hospitals, parks decent. Investing in safety, health and education.
While here in Recife / Pernambuco Arena Cup is a 'joke' tracks are bumpy and not need rain. If it rains chaos takes over the city. The governor invests more in its application than in people. According to an article in the Folha de São Paulo Governor Eduardo Campos (PSB-PE) increased by U.S. $ 7 million ad spending government in 2012, up 11% over the previous year.
Were R $ 70.7 million in "government disclosure in all media" versus R $ 63.5 million in 2011 (as corrected by the IPCA). Fields invested more in advertising than in 2012, for example, "providing school transport" (£ 42.5 million) and "maintenance of properties of state schools" (U.S. $ 37.5 million). Under the responsibility of the Secretariat of Staff, ad spending represented 0.3% of all government spending de Pernambuco in 2012.

Now with the World Cup, especially the Arena Pernambuco government is shelling out big bucks. Officially, the value is $ 532.615 million, but the number is based on the budget in May 2009, ie four years ago. In the current budget of £ 532 million, £ 397 million was financed by BNDES and the remainder by the authorities. Thus a large sum of money will be the responsibility of the State Government of Pernambuco. Second is being reported in the press and BNDS the loan and the government will pay for 20 years.

Adding the costs of government propaganda of Pernambuco to spending on the World Cup all this sum of money could be used or improvements of Schools, Agamemnon Magalhães Hospital, Hospital of the Restoration; invest in safety, sanitation etc.. Yes this would be a great legacy for Pernambuco.

But to do what? We accept Brazil to host a World Cup. We Brazilians have not done anything for this not to happen. I like football. Since the World Cup 1982 that I follow, short. I am not against the realization of a World Cup, but never agreed with doing one here in Brazil with our country in these conditions. Before the Confederations Cup to start always positioned myself against the social networks and saw a few - compared with those who now stand against - manifest. Now that the circus is assembled and photos are played on the network showing the problems generated by the event is that more people are mobilizing. Guilt is our Brazilian friends!

THE WAY OF COPA

In addition to the expenditures cited above and in this article, you still have a question that you can not leave out: the expropriation of residents who lived in the land where he had built the Arenas.

On this point I leave this video for you the reader to analyze and draw your own conclusions:
