Brazilian children at the Tajaparu river risk getting cut to pieces as they fasten their canoes onto fast-moving tourist boats in order to sell their goods. They are risking death in order to make a few pennies selling sweets and jams.

Easy answer for someone who is still connected to the matrix... If those families had a proper education and basic human needs, nothing of this will happen... but this is a daily reality because is part of the current system.
ZEITGEIST NOW!!!

How is it that such a rich, large country has such high levels of poverty?
One of the explanations without doubt is endemic, historic corruption.

@RafaelFernandeSantos So you are not simple-minded in generalising about European and American people's intellects, based simply on a few people's comments under a youtube video? To be perfectly honest my friend it seems that most people are just trying to voice their concern and outrage after seeing people living in terrible conditions. What is wrong with that? No one is claiming they can sort out these peoples' lives or truly understand these peoples' suffering.

@dhiravk trust me it will make very little difference, most would just laugh only a few would help and they would be ostracized as bleeding heart liberals.

If you don't have enough food to eat, I would say it its unwise to have 12 children. But what do I know. It's a sad and beautiful world.
