agree  Maria Eugenia Farre: a idéia é essa mesma, de se tornar progressivamente auto-suficientes não precisando depender mais dos subsídios. O problema é que em PT fica meio ofensivo, acho eu, problema de registro
1 hr
  -> em portugal também pode ter conotação negativa, depende como se enquadra no resto do texto, tb o uso das aspas tira-lhe o aspecto negativo.

neutral  Maria Eugenia Farre: Poder pode, o autor do original também usou uma metáfora não muito elegante
1 hr
  -> Obviamente que sim, farre. Trata-se apenas de uma sugestão mais neutra e que transmite a ideia do original. Se existirem opções, nem sempre é necessário ser-se literal. Abraço
