Answer 5

I can't say I am suprised. Brazil's definition of middle class is anybody who can afford to eat 3 square meals a day, has electricity, running water, and a roof over their head regardless of how phucked up the house looks. In the U.S you have to have a car, an ipod, satellite or cable television, a microwave oven,a vacuum cleaner, internet access at home, a DVD player, a battery powered electric razor, a home weight scale, a dishwasher, a bathtub, etc in order to be considered middle class by American standards. Most of the Brazilian so called "middle class" do not not even own most of the material things that I mentioned let alone own all of them.
