Perhaps the most staggering data I came across while researching the IMF and World Bank is that ever since 1982, the flow of funds has been from poor countries to rich ones, not the other way around as we are led to believe

This flow is now in the *trillions* of dollars per year

Makes sense.

"They" want to extract value from poorer countries .. for their (and also regular rich countries' citizens) benefit.

In order to get public support for the corresponding policies, they market the whole thing as "beneficial to the poor countries".

Yeah, it’s the same concept as credit cards and BNPL for individuals. Eternal dependence.
