I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I’d rather hear about things that are actually happening.

              I notice none of the countries you used as “Average capitalist democracies” (which were all western, European, colonialist states that had gotten rich off exploitation before they were even democratic, for some reason) aren’t in the middle of the list (the completely nonobjective list with an arbitrary methidology) either.

              I guess your selection was just bad faith coping garbage.

              If all you’re trying to prove is that rich countries are richer than poor countries; no kidding.
