Kidnapping is Big Business in Brazil.



From the website:

Brazil has the widest income gap in South America, with over 20 percent of its citizens living on less than two dollars a day. And Brazil’s crime rate is well on its way to becoming among the worst in the world. In Brazil’s largest city, São Paulo, kidnapping has become big business. A recent report found that someone is abducted there every three days.
