BBC Brasil has a video report on Brasilians immigrants in Spain considering to move out form the crisis-struck Spain to Brasil. There are some 5,5 million Brasilians working outside of Brasil and many of them are seeking administrative aid to return to their home country.
This could be a desaster for the countries where they are currently residing. Take Martha’s Vineyard for example, president Obama’s favorite holiday spot in trhe US. The island hosts 75.000 people in summer, but this drops to less than 15.000 in winter. The economy of Martha’s Vineyard is running completely on the shoulders of the 3.000 Brazilian immigrants. This American ends his Blog post on the topic with “looks like Brazilians are here to stay”…I wouldn’t be betting on that prediction…
