Wealthy and prosperous São Paulo, a metro area that still attracts immigrants from all over the globe. It has throughout the decades remained a wealthy capitalist metro area, even in turbulent times. And unlike other metro areas in the West, it has never suffered major damages from wars or revolutions neither big natural disasters. The city remained liberal and market friendly even when other parts of the West were torn apart by revolutions, natural disasters and wars.
Some of its banks are the most profitable in the whole world, some even more than Western European ones and US banks. Banks can´t take people´s life savings or homes like in US.
There´s no death penalty in São Paulo or elsewhere in Brazil and there is gun control all over the country.
Good god I get it, São Paulo has nice stuff. So does Luanda, Angola. Show us some down to earth images. I could take a million nice and wealthy looking pictures of any city and miss the true soul of it completely. It’s mind numbing looking at these images for a length of time.
