Future Grands Prix?

Not helping things is that Brazil's economy is a complete mess. Per CNN, from back in October:

About 12 million Brazilians are now out of work, up from 8.8 million a year ago, recent government figures show. On Tuesday, officials announced that Brazil's industrial production declined so much in August, it wiped out the gains from the past five months.

And:

Brazil is mired in in its longest recession since the 1930s and the IMF estimates meager growth next year. Latin America's largest economy shrank 3.8% last year and the IMF now forecasts it will fall another 3.3% this year.

To put it bluntly, Brazil has far, far larger problems that meeting Bernie's demands for ever more money. That Bernie didn't mention the condition of Brazil's economy shows just how out of touch he is.
