The hosting of the World Cup seems to be a sticking point. As Brazilians want monies spent on education and health care. And, of course, these sporting events mean a vast transfer of public wealth into private hands, big corporate hands. And thus public institutions get neglected.
Or to put it simply: it's neoliberalism -- :)
