Brasil's Mantegna: Business "Crying With A Full Belly" About New Tax.

MERCO PRESS/
Brasil's Economic minister Guido Mantega said that the financial sector was “crying with a full belly” over a capital tax levied this week to prevent a foreign exchange bubble between the Real and the US dollar.
“They are crying with a full belly because never before in the history of the Brasilian stock exchange has there been such a fantastic expansion. Today it has become one of the largest and main markets of the world thanks to the administration of President Lula da Silva. You can’t have all”, said Mantega.
