    Overexploited, not underdeveloped. Natural resource wealth belongs to the peoples who live where it comes from.

      Obviously I agree, but I didn’t say underdeveloped. I know these countries are exploited by western conglomerates through puppet government leaders installed by secret services as democratic leaders to sellout natural resources into their hands. Same like before by East India Trading Company. They at least had the decency to steal it themselves…
