Why are you saging?
>what makes you think the continued exploitation of the amazon will make Brazil rich?
Living standards have risen greatly over the past decades. The 2000s were a golden age for the poor in large part because of the ongoing commodity boom, and the economic miracle of the 70s happened during an intense promotion of settlement of the hinterland. There were, of course, other factors. The larger role was played by the Cerrado, which was subjected to an even stronger process of development. But gringos generally don't care about the Cerrado.
I'm not saying the present model of development is ideal. What I seek isn't simply maximizing exports but the construction of a new society on new land, to have it dotted with cities and roads as with any other place. It is living space. The "blue banana" in Europe, one of the wealthiest regions in the world, is made of extensively human-transformed land. Deforestation wasn't what made it rich but it happened as settlement intensified. Transforming the land is a precondition for the development of a society within it.
>why does Brazil have lower rates of suicide and anxiety than a built of country like America?
Development towards the First World should bring about First World problems, yes. It will also discourage the population flow towards the First World, which happens even though the First World is a sadder place to live in. That there is emigration in the first place, though it is modest, is a sign that some citizens feel their lives are lacking, and prioritize whatever comes from living abroad. It should also make citizens happier with their housing and reduce the number of mothers grieving for their sons lost to insufficient healthcare and civil war-like violence.
>An endless string of suburbs, skyscrapers, and other human manufactured landscapes is a dystopia. I derive happiness from not living in a concrete hellworld.
I am not a fan of concrete hellworlds, either, and that is the case for the Greater São Paulo, but not for the state's hinterland which is pleasant to be in. So maybe some of the population living in concrete hellworlds in the Atlantic seaboard should be dispersed to much more pleasant homesteads, small and medium-sized cities deeper into the continent.
