Or we kept them in poverty by moving our companies over there, paying the citizens $0.50 and hour and allowing only the upper class to control the country. We rape them of
their natural resources,
their main source of income, and make sure
our companies get the profits. We don't invest money into their economy to help it grow, we control it for our benefit, and our benefit only. Attempts by them to create a nationalist or socialist government results in US intervention to overthrow the newly
elected leader and then followed by replacing him with a pro-western leader and sometimes even reinstating an oppressive monarch.
If we just stayed out of other countries affairs, don't try to control their economy, and invest to help
their economies grow, I guarantee that we would be the most popular superpower this world has ever, and will ever, see.
