>turning from an isolationist country into a superpower
I hate everyone that repeats this lie. US was never isolationist.

ah, i see now

this, we were not actually that isolationist even during our most isolationist era. We traded a shit ton with europe, asia, south america, etc and had plenty of immigration the whole time. We adopted technology from Europe and maintained close ties with many of those countries.

The fiscal situation was worsened by president Geisel's decision to execute a Soviet-style economic plan in the late 70s. With the decreased credit availability in the 1980s, Brazil went through a recession in 1980 and declared a debt moratorium in 1982, ending the economic miracle.
