A "socialistic" Portugal welcomes the "Rich".of Brasil or elsewhere for "cash"

Well, there is no invasion of strange cultures like especially in Germany, which cut the popularity of the left in most EU countries, as they were forced to follow German/French instructions -or sanctions(!), by taking more and more of migrants...

I am one with money, but from heritage, still driving my old camping-car (have a house in Alentejo, but running barefoot and looking poor), Well. much control of police, payed a lot of money just for burocratic things (like pepper-spray, which is legal in austria, should pay custom for some old van - really cracy - and so on....

They dont like people, who run barefoot, or look like hippies (though I am not one),
They welcome the rich - not only in Portugal. its the same story everywhere.
