My First Encounter w/ Brazilian Poverty

I went with Tiago this afternoon to pick up some potatoes from a city about 200km from Jau'. The city that we visited was very poor... Sao Joao da Bao Vista. The potato farm was one of those stories that you hear about where the workers get paid zilch and there's a company store that they get to buy their lunch at. Kids that should be in school were there working long days.
