    Old news is old, but yes the bric nations are rising powers. There are talks of adding in the nations of South africa, South korea, and Mexico. which are all growing in power.

    Mexico is one of the fastest growing economic nations, theres even alot of Chinese investors placeing there money into Mexico.

    Its one of my main sorts of reasons to explain to people why mexico is a riseing power, tough the average american only hears the bad parts of mexico and assumes there dirt poor. HA as if.

    I agree with your agreeing. It why i hate taking Spanish class not because of the language (i love it, tough i suffer from da fuck i don't understand this disease) its because of the comments i hear in the class. the anti-Mexican comments are so much, " they should all learn English if they want to live here" (no national language, and being multicultural and knowing two languages increases are trade) or my personally favorite " Mexicans are stealing american land" ( Well the fact that mexico was orriginaly on the west coast far before the americans arrived, so by default the west coast of the united states belongs to mexico)

    The biased against mexico is so much, yes mexico has drug cartels but guess what so does america.

    Its interesting because this the first time in history that Europe has not been the rising powers, and instead the countries that suffered under imperialism will be the next giants.

    Ironicly im going to Nigeria this December.

    Truth is im scared shitless about Nigeria (hey look i'll be right next to the Libyan border), and its not just GS that confirmed it alot of banks say the same thing, tough there are some who are thinking china will collapse and India or Brazil is the next power.

    Its speculation with math involved There are variables that cannot be put into the equation like world events or natural disasters.

    Stop adding random capital letters in your posts. It's fucking annoying.

    Mexico's economy is going to climb and then even out. There's no denying that it's a shitty country to live in, unless you live in the touristy parts. Same goes for Brazil.

    I thought Brazil was a nice place when i visited, sure it has problems but they can be fixed. But hey at the moment Mexico is showing signs of continues growth, at least for a while while countries like China are all ready showing the signs of evening out.

    Didn't take the time to visit the slums eh? They got some pretty bad poverty problems. Particularly child poverty, what with the not having enough room in the orphanages and all that.

    At last no, i only saw the good or decent parts of Brazil. However of what i saw i liked and was treated very well. however Brazil has experianced the fastest GDP growth of most nations, especially the BRIC nations.
