Gracinha anglo-saxónica

Esta piada do Financial Times é algo brejeira: «Exciting countries get exciting acronyms, at least in financial circles. Fast-growing Brazil, Russia, India and China, for example, are called Brics, the very initials implying solid growth. Other countries are less fortunate. Take Portugal, Italy, Greece and Spain, sometimes described as the Pigs. It is a pejorative moniker but one with much truth.» (Financial Times, 31 de Agosto de 2008)
