There is a petition drawn up by a group of Brazilian pilots to fight a law that will allow foreign commercial pilots to work in Brazil. Presently, and most likely in the future, the exercise of the commercial pilot profession in Brazil is limited to people with Brazilian citizenship. This law is trying to change this situation and allow Brazilian companies to hire foreign pilots.

The petition against this bill already has 3715 signatures ... yes 3715!!!

Most of them certainly issued by Brazilian pilots, the same people who then come to occupy the places of local pilots, in other countries.

We should all think about it.

To have the same quality of life in São Paulo as I have in Europe, I would have to spent more than double in São Paulo.
This is a complete normal mechanism, and the most expensive cities are - due to the mentioned effect - are third world cities like Teheran, Lagos or Harare.

But you cannot compare the standard of living. If you want to live in Brazil, you have to adapt a local lifestyle, and this is much lower than Europe.

Of course Europe is paradise, but we discussed the possibility of changing Brazil for NE-Asia.
