It's not considered the best city in Brazil (and South America) for nothing, son. You might feel envious but you should focus on improving your own city instead of trying to pull down others with you.

>Brazil’s Secretariat of Strategic Affairs last defined “middle class” in 2012 as anyone living in a household with per capita income of R$291-R$1,019 ($99-$347) per month, although definitions vary slightly across the country’s institutions.

>One friend of mine, from a favela in Rio, complains bitterly that she and her family are now considered ‘middle class’ while they face exclusion, hardship, and even open prejudice and racism every single day. The government is right to include her in the demographic middle class. But she’s also very right.
http://frombrazil.blogfolha.uol.com.br/2013/03/22/what-is-middle-class/

>The document, produced by the Presidential Office of Strategic Affairs, sets a per capita monthly income of 291 reais ($75) as the threshold for middle class status.

>The very notion of middle class in Brazil is quite different from the standards of North America and Western Europe.
>Instead, the term is used broadly to include almost anyone able to pay rent, put food on the table and perhaps pay a monthly installment on the refrigerator, microwave or television that Brazil's government often touts as a sign of their emergence. The so-called "Classe C," the bottom rung of Brazil's middle class, earns as little as 1730 reais a month, about $430, and, unlike the much-smaller upper middle class, relies largely on public transportation, health services and schools.

>>67262479
>>67262645
Doesn't matter which one you use, these are all reported by each country's government, in Brazil's case it's IBGE that sent these numbers to Worldbank and CIAfactbook. Or do you seriously think CIA employs people to calculate wage and cost of living of EVERY country on earth and apply the American poverty line to all of them to create that list. They don't give a fuck about Brazil's existence.

Each country has the right to set their own poverty line because some countries like Brazil and Azerbaijan are poor, therefore they shouldn't set the bar too high, if you can have two meals a day and a bed to sleep, you're middle class. Now wealthy countries like Spain and USA have the bar set really high because they're high achievement countries where anybody can achieve anything.

>>67263132
I don't know how CIA calculated it but if you go purely by income rate then Brazil still has 9%, slightly lower than Mexico with 10%.

I think you are just seriously overestimating the amount of poor people in Brazil because of your obvious bias.

If we apply the US poverty line to Brazil, around 70% of Brazilians live below the US poverty line, ok. That's an absolutely abysmal number.

>>67263559
Again, i'll say this one more time. EACH country define their own poverty line. You can't compare these numbers because in some countries the poverty line is earning less than 20k dollars a year while in others like Brazil, it's earning less than 2k a year.

There is no such calculation. The only list your numbers fit are the "less than 3 dollars a day" list. And honestly, if someone is living on less than 3 dollars a day, they're not poor, they're on the verge of death. If 9% of the Brazilian population is living on less than 3 dollars a day, this country is absolutely fucked beyond repair, that's nearly TWENTY MILLION people living on less than THREE DOLLARS A DAY. That's more than the entire Syrian population and i will not even mention that more people die in Brazil than in the Syrian war.

The situation in Brazil is actually much worse than i thought.
