The government of Brazil gains more land for some of it's impoverished citizens. It gains more farmland. It gains some resources that can be mined from those cleared lands. It gains an increased standard of living for many people. And yes, it gains more taxes from all of that.

In short, one could say that they gain as much from altering their environment as the American government gained in the 19th and 20th century by altering their environment.
