USA receives about billions of money from HUGE interest rated debts form other countries

The United States has indeed lent money to other countries, and the US does indeed charge interest on loans.

This is not a crime, and every developed country in the world - and even Third World countries like Brazil - do the same.

has urged hundries of militar coup d´etats around the world for better business opportunities,

Although you are lying rather pathetically when you say "hundreds", I'll take it easy on you and ask you for a specific example of such an "urged" coup d'etat.

has deliberately lied and cheated to force profitable wars around the world.

Please name one war in which the US has engaged in which the US made a profit, rather than losing an enormous amount of cash. Hint: The Spanish American War, the First World War, the Second World War, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the First Gulf War and the Second Gulf War were so far all huge cost centers for the US.

I guess that the profits do compensate the meager international help.

There are no "profits" other than enhanced security. Wars are expensive - please quantify these so-called "profits" with hard statistsics, rather than empty rhetoric, please.

By the way, how strange to destroy Iraq against world opinion and now ask other countries for reconstruction help...

It's only strange if we accept your flawed premises: why would the US ask other countries to take their share of the responsibility for rebuilding Iraq if the Iraq War was so profitable? Why wouldn't the US just keep Iraq all to itself if Iraq were such a moneymaking opportunity?

By the way, USA is not the most advanced in medicine, education, jobs and health resources in the world,

If the US were not the most medically advanced country in the world, why has all ground-breaking medical research in pharmaceuticals and surgery over the past two decades come from the US?

As far as education is concerned, millions of students from every country in the world pay a great deal of money to study at American universities. More international students come to the US to study than to all the other countries of the world combined.

People vote with their feet and everyone wants to come to America. Very few seem to want to move to Brazil so they can squat in a shit-smeared shack in Cidade do Deus.

I guess you should learn enought geography to tell anything about other countries... :o)

Do you honestly believe that the sad percentage of Brazilians who even receive a basic education know their geography better than Americans do?

By the way, I am from Brazil... And since the beginning of the Iraq war I stopped eating in Mc Donalds...

I never eat there myself.

No one in America cares enough about Brazil to boycott any Brazilian stores - which is convenient, since Brazil has absolutely no commercial presence in the US whatsoever. If Brazil ceased all exports to America tomorrow, we wouldn't even notice. If the US ceased all exports to Brazil tomorrow, your economy would collapse even further.

At my street I can find a better, cheaper, and tastier place...

I'm sure you can. Good luck with that.

And just in case, Rock´n Roll can be better in many other countries too.

"Can" and "are" are quite different. Maybe one day soon a famous Brazilian will take the American pop charts by storm. The problem is, the last time that happened it was Astrud Gilberto.

You've had a 40 year dry spell.

Let´s start a discussion... Or can´t you american people really discuss with poor third world people?

We do all the time. But all you ever want to discuss is Marxism.
