Unless specifically proven otherwise on every count, I assume that any random $#*+hole country* cares more for its citizens' lives than my own government cares for mine**.

* Brazil is not a $#*+hole country.

** As a white male voter in New Hampshire who is not a member of either party, I am politically one of the most important people on the planet every four years (and scarily over-represented in Congress the rest of the time). So by "mine" I really mean "some random Joe in flyover country".
