Brazilian Visas

Then, you do not need to be photographed or fingerprinted. What is the problem?

that would mean that no-one in Brazil could afford

Fire another neuron or two. It might help. I didn't say, or even imply, no one, rather, I said it won't be significant. Need I teach you your own language too?

You would if you get a passport after 26 October, and your government is not able to supply passports with biometric data yet.

Actually, I think it is you who has to do more thinking, as the implication of your comment of the magnitude of effect on tourism does imply that no-one, or perhaps a single person at most, could afford to visit the USA from Brazil. If we are to accept the percentage you think that Brazilian tourism contributes to the US economy, well, frankly I can`t be bothered, if you are capable do the calculations yourself.

Then we will have to wait and see. I don't see Americans handing out tshirts to Europeans at this time, while the Brazilians are already doing it and it has been only two weeks. I don't think there will be a sharp decline in tourists at all.

No. Clearly, you don't read what I said, or, you interpret it in a way you want to. I already told you what I meant in my last post. That makes one post which you "interpreted" like you see fit, and a second one which I reiterated what I meant which you just chose to ignore. Hence, this is a rather pointless discussion because if after two posts, and now three, you don't get what I say, you never will.

Brazillian tourism is a negligable amount of the entire tourist industry. If not one Brazillian visits the United States in 2004 the impact will be virtually unnoticed. However, compared the other way around, if not one American visits Brazil, the country will be in a world of hurt. Whether you choose to accept what I'm saying or whether you want to continue to separate fly**** from pepper by discussing your own interpretation of what you think I am saying is irrelevant.

Why don`t you just put "We're all right, screw everyone else" into your copy buffer and paste it for every reply as that seems to be the only think you can say, and as you've said it over and over with nothing new to contribute I`m now going to have to seriously consider adding you to my ignore list.
