Welcome to Portugal: the land of doctors and engineers! Vodca for everyone!

Surprisingly hypocrite is the fact that our Prime Minister likes to call himself as "Engineer", but in fact, he never got to accomplish the 5 years long course. Instead, he solve the problem by raising up "a little bit" the grades of some disciplines (the most important indeed), the same ones that he, kind of... bought! Who has the nerve to deny something to the political society, or who hasn't nowadays the will for in exchange to receive some... political or monetary favors?

The controversy emerged along with a case of corruption (an illicit "fundraising" sponsored by the naive students) that was being practiced on a private university, the very same one where that our "Man of the Year" supposedly obtained his certificate.

Portugal is resumed to doctors, lawyers and engineers. Everything but that, is considered mob. If someone finishes his or her rather poor course in some lousy university, it doesn't matter: he or she will insist to add to their names a "dr.", because they know, and surely they will enjoy a 1st class treatment. The worst is that the society itself (even the so called mob), goes along with that circus, like anoying little puppies rolling around just to eat a biscuit at the end.

Prime Minister's dirty little secret is the ex-libris of our lusted society, that came to reveal that worst than a "wannabe", is fake presidents, directors, constructors, leaders...

I would like to give a special thanks to blogger.com to let me write everything I want, having the freedom to at least try to shout to the world things that quickly become silent aroud here.

Democracy has turned freedom of expression into hilarious e-mails and blog societies...

Pequeno é o país em que o primeiro-ministro vai para os ecrans de televisão justificar as suas habilitações académicas.
