Landless Workers Movement (MST) in Brazil 320x240

(for fast broadband Internet connections) Written in the Brazil constitution is the principle that land must be productive. The Landless Reform Movement bases its actions on this principle.
The movement identifies land that is not used productively or has not had taxes paid on it or was acquired by dubious or unlawful means.
The Landless Workers Movement then occupies the land and makes its case to the government that the title of the land should pass to those who will develop the land to benefit people.
In this clip several people who are occupying land in Sao Paulo explain the process by which poor landless people petition the government for title to the farmland they are cultivating.

MST IS NOTHING BUT A GROUP OF TERRORISTS, MURDERS, DRUG TRAFFICKERS, ETC.

MST do not work on the land, they just steel it from productive farmers. THEY ARE TERRORISTS! In any serious country they would be in jail!

This video is a lie, the MST is a group of terrorists, murders, prone to violent crimes and highly criticized by the Brazilian society. They destroy private and productive property of family farms. They are truly terrorists. Please see the many movies that provide evidence of the mass destruction that this huge terrorist movement does in Brazil.

Every person who watches the present movie is able to listen from a MST-Member that it is true that several of their members come from the cities! Consequently, how should they manage land? How may the government and the society as a whole believe that they are going to do a better work than those people that are considered "unproductive owners"? That seems to be the main reason why everywhere the MST becomes rural land there is no progress, but the development of criminality.

Land to the people who work it. Long live the MST!

Para os marxistas e outros comunistas de plantão-Socialismo não pressupõe democracia, de fato segundo TODOS os exemplos históricos se assemelha a um estado policial
